We have studied the structures and electronic properties of PdCn (n=2-12) using the density functional theory in this paper. Though calculating, we found that the linear isomers are most stable for PdCn(n=2-9) clusters. N=10 is turning point, and the bicyclical structure is most stable for PdC10 cluster. Cyclic structures have the lowest energy for PdC11 and PdC12 clusters.

Density functional study on the complexation of [Ru(NO)(H2O)5]3+ with NO3− ions reproduced the stabilities of the geometrical isomers and the stepwise substitution reactivities by combining the association energy with the leaving/entering ligands.

The reaction between CrO2Cl2 and ethylene leading to the formation of epoxide and chlorohydrin precursors or directly to 1,2-dichloroethane has been studied by density functional theory. The formation of the epoxide precursor (Cl2(O)Cr-OC2H4) was found to take place via a [3+2] addition of ethylene to two Cr=O bonds followed by rearrangement of the five-membered diol to the epoxide product. The alternative mechanisms involving a direct addition of oxygen to ethylene or the [2+2] addition of the olefin to a Cr=O bond were found to have much higher activation energies. The formation of the chlorohydrin precursor (Cl(O)Cr-OCH2=CHCl) was found to take place via a [3+2] addition to one Cr—Cl and one Cr=O bond. Pathways involving initial [2+2] addition to a Cr—Cl or Cr=O bond had much higher activation barriers. The generation of 1,2-dichloroethane is highly unfavorable with an endothermicity of 44.7 kcal/mol and an even higher activation barrier. It is suggested that the formation of epoxide and chlorohydrin from the respective precursors requires the addition of H2O.Key words: reaction mechanisms, epoxide, oxidation of ethylene, chromyl chloride, DFT.

This theoretical work applied density functional theory (DFT) to study the ground state of the indigo molecule and the effects of substituents. B3LYP was employed with the 6-31G[d,p] basis set. The obtained energies were used to describe the local reactivity [Δf(r)]. The effects of the substituents on the local reactivity were dependent on the molecular positions of the substituents.

In this density functional theory based investigation, we have modelled and studied the adsorption behaviour of guanidinium cations and substituted (phenyl, methoxy phenyl, nitro phenyl and di-nitro phenyl) guanidinium cationic collectors on the basal surfaces of kaolinite and goethite.
