The relative stability of the trans and cis isomers in the square planar palladium(II) complexes Pd ( I )( PPh 3)(η3- XCHC ( Ph ) CHR ) ( X = H , Me , CMe 3, CO 2 Me , P ( O )( OMe )2, and SO 2 H ; R = H , Me ) was investigated with the aid of the B3LYP density functional theory calculations. We examined how the substituents X, with different electronic properties, of the η3-allyl ligands affect the relative stability of the trans and cis isomers. Through the investigation, we were able to explain the trans/cis relative stability derived from the experimentally measured trans/cis isomer ratios in the palladium(II) complexes.

Detailed theoretical studies of Ni(II) complexes in a distorted square planar form and containing dithio and (P, P) chelating ligands were performed. These Ni(II) complexes are investigated for their use in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC). Structures and UV–vis spectra are calculated at density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) theories using B3LYP and CAM-B3LYP functionals and 6-31G(d,p) and 6-31G+(d) basis sets. Geometry optimizations result in excellent agreement with the experimental results. Moreover, the analysis of the frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) allowed a detailed assignment and a clear analysis of the electronic transitions. The TD-DFT calculations reproduce the main spectroscopic properties observed and substituent effects. The results reveal that all absorption spectra are characterized by mixed character mainly dominated by metal to ligand and ligand to ligand charge transfers (MLCT and LLCT). We unveil how the substituent variations affect the DSSCs features of the complexes.

The title compounds, chlorotris(dimethyl sulfide-κS)platinum(II) hexafluorophosphate, [PtCl(C2H6S)3]PF6, and bromotris(dimethyl sulfide-κS)platinum(II) hexafluorophosphate, [PtBr(C2H6S)3]PF6, are isomorphous and are composed of [PtX(dms)3]+ complex cations (X = Cl and Br, and dms is dimethyl sulfide) and PF6 − anions. The Pt atom is coordinated by three S atoms and one X atom in a pseudo-square-planar coordination, with Pt—S distances in the range 2.293 (1)–2.319 (2) Å. Two dms ligands have a staggered conformation with respect to the coordination plane, while the third is rotated by ∼90° compared with the orientation of the other two. The packing can be described as consisting of [PtX(dms)3]2(PF6)2 units with a centre of symmetry. In this description, the PtII atom has a pseudo-octahedral coordination, with four normal bonds and two long weak interactions. Density-functional theory calculations show that a conformation in which one dms ligand is not staggered is less favourable than having all three dms ligands staggered.

AbstrakDensity Functional Theory (DFT) merupakan salah satu metode komputasi yang digunakan untuk perhitungan kimia. Metode ini dapat menyelesaian persamaan Schrödinger secara sederhana karena didasarkan pada densitas elektron. Dalam penelitian ini ditentukan geometri dan karaktersitik ikatan dari senyawa kompleks Ni(II)-dibutilditiokarbamat menggunakan metode DFT dengan fungsi B3LYP, B3PW91 dan BLYP. Basis set yang akan digunakan adalah LANL2DZ dan perangkat lunak Gaussian 03W. Hasil optimasi geometri Ni(II)-dibutilditiokarbamat menunjukkan bentuk struktur yang sama dengan Ni(II)-dietilditiokarbamat sebagai data pembanding, yaitu persegi planar. Keterisian elektron pada ikatan Ni – S adalah 1,8873 elektron, yang merupakan 20,24 % elektron dari Ni dan 79,76 % dari S.

The geometries, electronic structures, and spectral properties of three metal complexes Zn(C10H12N3OS)2 (1), Ni(C10H12N3OS)2 (2), and Pd(C10H12N3OS)2 (3) with N-(2-pyridinyl)morpholine-4-carbothioamide as a ligand are investigated by means of DFT (density functional theory) and TD-DFT (time-dependent density functional theory) methods. Complex 1 is a distorted tetrahedral geometry, while complexes 2 and 3 present a distorted square-planar coordination environment. In the simulated range, the spectrum of complex 1 has five obvious absorption peaks and one of them has the strongest intensity. The latter two complexes have one more absorption peak and shoulder peak with the similar intensity. Moreover, the strongest peaks of complexes 2.
