The structure optimization and calculation of electronic absorption spectra of meso-octa-methylcalix(4)pyrrole conformers was performed  by density- functional theory using hybrid B3LYP functional in cc-pVTZ basis set of Gaussian 09 package. Analysis of experimental UV-Vis spectra of solutions of calix(4)pyrrole was carried out in various solvents. The conclusion on the existence of a dynamic equilibrium between conformers in solutions of meso-octamethylcalix(4)pyrrole was made.

Within the limitations of density functional theory, the π-π type interaction between melatonin (a nocturnal hormone) and FOX-7 (an insensitive explosive) is investigated. Two composite structures have been considered in which 6- and 5-membered aromatic rings of melatonin are π-π linked to FOX-7 molecule. The structure optimization has been achieved at the level of B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p). The composite formed through the 5 membered ring of melatonin is found more stable than the composite involving 6 membered ring of melatonin and both of them are more stable than the composite having no π-π type interaction. Various structural, energetic, quantum chemical and spectral properties of the composites have been reported and discussed.
