The acetylation mechanisms of several selected typical substrates from experiments, including arylamines and arylhydrazines, are investigated with the density functional theory in this paper. The results indicate that all the transition states are characterized by a four-membered ring structure, and hydralazine (HDZ) is the most potent substrate. The bioactivity for all the compounds is increased in a sequence ofPABA≈4-AS<4-MA<5-AS≈INH<HDZ. The conjunction effect and the delocalization of the lone pairs of N atom play a key role in the reaction. All the results are consistent with the experimental data.

This work deals with a benchmark for the calculation of the structural parameters of ammonia-borane and alkylammonia-borane at the solid state, using hybrid and GGA functionals in the framework of the Density Functional Theory as well as the use of Grimme's empirical dispersion. A comparison for some dimers of the aforementioned species, calculated at the gas-phase at the level MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ is discussed.

ABSTRACTUsing the density functional theory (DFT) and time dependent DFT, within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), the electronic and optical properties of stoichiometric (ZnS)n nanoparticles (NP) were calculated. The dependence of the gap on the size (n) of the nanoparticle will be presented. The effect of replacing S atoms with P, Se or Te atoms in the (ZnS)n nanoparticles and its influence in the gap will be also shown.
