AbstractComplete and consistent atomic data, including excitation energies, lifetimes, wavelengths, hyperfine structures, Landé gJ-factors and E1, E2, M1, and M2 line strengths, oscillator strengths, transitions rates are reported for the low-lying 41 levels of Mo XXVIII, belonging to the n = 3 states (1s22s22p6)3s23p3, 3s3p4, and 3s23p23d. High-accuracy calculations have been performed as benchmarks in the request for accurate treatments of relativity, electron correlation, and quantum electrodynamic (QED) effects in multi-valence-electron systems. Comparisons are made between the present two data sets, as well as with the experimental results and the experimentally compiled energy values of the National Institute for Standards and Technology wherever available. The calculated values including core-valence correction are found to be in a good agreement with other theoretical and experimental values. The present results are accurate enough for identification and deblending of emission lines involving the n = 3 levels, and are also useful for modeling and diagnosing plasmas.

The 2- (naphthalen-1-yl (piperidin-1-yl) methyl) phenol compound is an alkylaminophenol compound and has been experimentally synthesized by the Petasis reaction. In this study Structural analysis was carried out by FT-IR, NMR, UV-Vis spectroscopy. The high antioxidant value of the compound showed that it could be a potential biologically active drug. Theoretical data support all experimental analysis of the new compound. Comparisons were made by double method. For this purpose, DFT (B3LYP) and HF methods have been used with 6-311G ++ (d, p) set. Also, the compoundand#39;s electronic and structural properties (bond lengths, bond angles and dihedral angles), the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energies, electrostatic potential (MEP), vibrational frequencies, Mulliken atomic charges, excitation energies, and oscillator strengths were calculated. As a result; the theoretical and experimental values were found to be compatible.

This work aims at unraveling the effects of co-crystallization on the optical properties of an N-salicylideneaniline-derived molecular switch transforming between an enol and a keto form. This is achieved by way of a two-step multi-scale method where (i) the molecular geometry and unit cell parameters are optimized using a periodic boundary conditions density functional theory method and (ii) the optical properties are computed for a selection of clusters embedded in an array of point-charges that reproduce the crystal field electronic potential. The optical properties (vertical excitation energies and oscillator strengths) are obtained at the RI-CC2/def2-TZVPD level of approximation. This method allows us to decompose the effects of co-crystallization into (i) indirect effects, the geometry changes of the chromophore due to crystal packing with the coformer, and (ii) direct ones, the polarization due to the interacting coformer and to the crystal field. For the former effects, variations of a crucial torsion angle lead to modification of the π-conjugation and therefore to the decrease or increase of the excitation energies. About the latter, they are antagonistic: (i) the coformer is not directly involved in the excitations but its polarization decreases the excitation energies while (ii) the crystal field has the opposite effect. For the co-crystals with succinic and fumaric acids, combining these direct and indirect effects leads to a hypsochromic shift of the first absorption band with respect to the reference crystal, in agreement with experimental data.

The ground state and low-lying excited states of the CCCN radical and its ions have been investigated systematically using the complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and multi-configuration second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2) methods in conjunction with the ANO-RCC-TZP basis set. The calculated results show that the state 12Σ+ has the lowest CASPT2 energy among the electronic states. By means of the geometric optimization of this radical, it could be found that the molecule exhibits linear structure, with the bond lengths R1 = 1.214 Å, R2 = 1.363 Å, R3 = 1.162 Å, which are very close to the experimental values. The calculated vertical excitation energies and the corresponding oscillator strengths show that there are three relatively strong peaks at energies 0.63, 4.04, and 5.49 eV, which correspond to the transitions 12Σ+ → 12Π, 12Σ+ → 22Π, and 12Σ+ → 22Σ+, respectively. Additionally, the electronic configuration and the harmonic vibration frequencies of each state are also investigated.

For planar H2CS, (C2ν), the CS stretch potential curves were obtained for the four to six lowest singlet states of each symmetry species by using multireference CI methods. Included were the (n, 4s), (n, 4p), (n, 3d), (π, 4s), and (π, 4p) Rydberg as well as the (n, π*), (π, π*), (σ, π*), (n, σ*), (n0, π*2), and (nπ, π*2) valence states. Vertical and adiabatic excitation energies, equilibrium CS distances, vibrational frequencies for the CS stretching mode, dipole moments, oscillator strengths, and Franck–Condon factors were evaluated and found to be in good agreement with known experimental data. The role of the 1(π, π*) state that diabatically crosses all 1A1 states, including the n2 ground-state configuration, causing many interactions with other states, has been given special attention. The following reassignments and predictions are of interest. (i) A switch of Ẽ and [Formula: see text], with 1A1(n, 4py) corresponding to the Ẽ bands and 1B2(n, 4pz) corresponding to the [Formula: see text] bands is suggested, based on the energetic ordering. (ii) Because of strong Franck–Condon factors, hot bands are suggested to play an important role in the analysis of the CS stretch progression of [Formula: see text]. (iii) The [Formula: see text] system, only studied in low resolution, is predicted to have high intensity and be perturbed due to the crossing of (π, π*) with (n, 4py) in the vertical region. The CS stretch bands should be observable. (iv) Observed combination modes in the [Formula: see text] system may be due to vibronic mixing of (π, π*) with (σ, π*).
