High-temperature Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory have been employed to study the Li2O·4B2O3 melt structure; B3O4Ø2 and B3O3Ø3 six-membered rings were found to be the main anion groups present in the melt.

The interaction of cucurbiturils (Q6, Q7, and Q8) with Ca and Ba chlorides and iodides are studied for the first time by density functional theory. The thermodynamic parameters for the formation of host–guest complexes are calculated. The structures of complexes of Q6 and Q7 with one and two guest molecules are established. The energy parameters for the transfer of Be2+ and Ba2+ cations from an aqueous solution into the cavity of Q7 containing n water molecules are defined. The dependences of the formation energies for complexes Q7WnBe2+ and Q7WnBa2+ on the number of water molecules are shown to be parabolic, with the energy minima at n = 5 and n = 6, respectively. It is found that Q7 can form in an aqueous solution supramolecular complexes with protonated histamine (HA) and neutral histamine in the presence of Ca2+ ions.
