The combined use of NEXAFS spectroscopic data and DFT results on TM(acac)3(TM = Cr, Mn, Fe) allowed us to look into the TM–ligand bonding scheme and to rationalize the peculiar electronic and structural properties of the title complexes.

We have investigated the structural and electronic properties of arsenopyrite and its cleavage surface formation using a density functional/plane waves method. QTAIM and ELF were applied for investigating the nature of the bonding in arsenopyrite.

<div> <div> <div> <p>Porphyrins are cornerstone functional materials that are useful in a wide variety of settings ranging from molecular electronics to biology and medicine. Their applications are often hindered, however, by poor solubilities that result from their extended, solvophobic aromatic surfaces. Attempts to counteract this problem by functionalizing their peripheries have been met with only limited success. Here, we demonstrate a versatile strategy to tune the physical and electronic properties of porphyrins using an axial functionalization approach. Porphyrin silanes (PorSils) and bissilyloxy PorSils (SOPS) are prepared from porphyrins by operationally simple κ4N-silylation protocols, introducing bulky silyloxy “caps” that are central and perpendicular to the planar porphyrin. While porphyrins typically form either J- or H-aggregates, SOPS do not self-associate in the same manner: the silyloxy axial substituents dramatically improve solubility by inhibiting aggregation. Moreover, axial porphyrin functionalization offers convenient handles through which optical, electronic, and structural properties of the porphyrin core can be modulated. We observe that the identity of the silyloxy substituent impacts the degree of planarity of the porphyrin in the solid state as well as the redox potentials. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Through theoretical analysis, we study relevant properties of some molecular structures formed by oligothiophenes (T) and dioctylfluorenes (F) units, like the exciton binding energy (Eb) and dipole moment, important for the efficiency of different kinds of optical and electronic devices.

The size specific nature of the electronic and structural properties of small metal clusters is reviewed. Three specific examples are illustrated: the nature of hydrogen interaction with neutral and charged metal clusters, the stability and electronic properties of metal-carbon complexes and the role of electron shell filling and close atomic packing on synthesizing very stable and chemically inert clusters.
