Our recent procedure of computing accurate core-electron binding energies (CEBEs) with density-functional theory is applied to glycine conformers in this work. The procedure uses the unrestricted generalized transition-state model and a combined functional of Becke's 1988 exchange with Perdew's 1986 correlation. When a large basis set such as Dunning's correlation-consistent polarized valence quadruple zeta set is used, the average absolute deviation from experiment for the CEBEs of the most stable conformer of glycine is only 0.2 eV, compared with 18 eV for Koopmans' theorem. Key words: core-electron binding energies, density-functional theory, glycine.

Allopurinol vapour is studied with density functional theory. Using the best method from past experience for each property, we predict the equilibrium geometry, vibrational spectrum, dipole moment, average dipole polarizability, UV absorption spectrum, vertical ionization energies of valence electrons, and core-electron binding energies.

Density functional theory and Møller–Plesset perturbation theory methods have been used to study the ring clusters of ( BN )n=1–10 employing 6-311++G** basis set. The binding energies have been corrected for the basis set superposition error (BSSE). Static polarizability of these ring clusters has been investigated. A simple expression for the size dependence of polarizability has been invoked, so that the same relation can be useful for predicting the polarizability of larger clusters. The topological properties were analyzed employing the Bader's atoms in molecules theory. A good correlation between the structural parameters and the properties of electron density is found. Localization and delocalization indices were also used for the analysis of molecular electronic structure by an electron pair perspective. The contribution of stereo electronic interactions to the molecular properties as a function of ring size is analyzed based on the natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis.
