In the title compound, C18H12O3S2, synthesized by the Claisen–Schmidt condensation method, the essentially planar chalcone unit adopts an s-cis configuration with respect to the carbonyl group within the ethylenic bridge. In the crystal, weak C—H...π interactions connect the molecules into zigzag chains along the b-axis direction. The molecular structure was optimized geometrically using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6–311 G++(d,p) basis set level and compared with the experimental values. Molecular orbital calculations providing electron-density plots of HOMO and LUMO molecular orbitals and molecular electrostatic potentials (MEP) were also computed both with the DFT/B3LYP/6–311 G++(d,p) basis set. The experimental energy gap is 3.18 eV, whereas the theoretical HOMO–LUMO energy gap value is 2.73 eV. Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to further investigate the weak interactions present.

Pyrene (C16H10) is an organic semiconductor which has wide applications in the field of organic electronics suitable for the development of organic light emitting diodes (OLED) and organic photovoltaic cells (OPV). In this work, Density Functional Theory (DFT) using Becke’s three and Lee Yang Parr (B3LYP) functional with basis set 6-311++G(d, p) implemented in Gaussian 03 package was  used to compute total energy, bond parameters, HOMO-LUMO energy gap, electron affinity, ionization potential, chemical reactivity descriptors, dipole moment, isotropic polarizability (α), anisotropy of polarizability ( Δ∝) total first order hyper-polarizability () and second order hyperpolarizability (). The molecules used are pyrene, 1-chloropyrene and 4-chloropyrene  in gas phase and in five different solvents: benzene, chloroform, acetone, DMSO and water. The results obtained show that solvents and chlorination actually influenced the properties of the molecules. The isolated pyrene in acetone has the largest value of HOMO-LUMO energy gap of and is a bit closer to a previously reported experimental value of  and hence is the most stable. Thus, the pyrene molecule has more kinetic stability and can be described as low reactive molecule. The calculated dipole moments are in the order of 4-chloropyrene (1.7645 D) < 1-chloropyrene (1.9663 D) in gas phase. The anisotropy of polarizability ( for pyrene and its derivatives were found to increase with increasing polarity of the solvents.  In a nutshell, the molecules will be promising for organic optoelectronic devices based on their computed properties as reported by this work.

The title compound, C24H30Br2N4O2, consists of a 2-(4-nitrophenyl)-4H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine entity with a 12-bromododecyl substituent attached to the pyridine N atom. The middle eight-carbon portion of the side chain is planar to within 0.09 (1) Å and makes a dihedral angle of 21.9 (8)° with the mean plane of the imidazolopyridine moiety, giving the molecule a V-shape. In the crystal, the imidazolopyridine units are associated through slipped π–π stacking interactions together with weak C—HPyr...ONtr and C—HBrmdcyl...ONtr (Pyr = pyridine, Ntr = nitro and Brmdcyl = bromododecyl) hydrogen bonds. The 12-bromododecyl chains overlap with each other between the stacks. The terminal –CH2Br group of the side chain shows disorder over two resolved sites in a 0.902 (3):0.098 (3) ratio. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H...H (48.1%), H...Br/Br...H (15.0%) and H...O/O...H (12.8%) interactions. The optimized molecular structure, using density functional theory at the B3LYP/ 6–311 G(d,p) level, is compared with the experimentally determined structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

In the title compound, C15H15NO, the configuration of the C=N bond of the Schiff base is E, and an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond is observed, forming an intramolecular S(6) ring motif. The phenol ring is inclined by 45.73 (2)° from the plane of the aniline ring. In the crystal, molecules are linked along the b axis by O—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming polymeric chains. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the packing arrangement are from H...H (56.9%) and H...C/C...H (31.2%) interactions. The density functional theory (DFT) optimized structure at the B3LYP/ 6–311 G(d,p) level is compared with the experimentally determined molecular structure, and the HOMO–LUMO energy gap is provided. The crystal studied was refined as an inversion twin.

AbstractThe structural, nonlinear optical, electronic and thermodynamic properties of andirobin molecule were carried out by density functional theory at the B3LYP, WB97XD level and at the Restricted Hartree–Fock level by employing 6–311G(d,p) basis set. The obtained values of bond lengths, bond angles, 1H NMR and 13C NMR are in good agreement with experimental values. The dipole moment and first static hyperpolarizability show that andirobin can be applied in nonlinear optical devices. HOMO–LUMO energy gap values were found to be greater than 4 eV and lead us to the conclusion that this molecule can be used as insulator in many electronic devices. The thermal energy (E), molar heat capacity at constant volume $$(C_{v}$$ ( C v ) and entropy (S) were also calculated.

The asymmetric unit of the title halogenated chalcone derivative, C15H10BrFO, contains two independent molecules, both adopting an s-cis configuration with respect to the C=O and C=C bonds. In the crystal, centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked into dimers via intermolecular hydrogen bonds, forming rings with R 1 2(6), R 2 2(10) and R 2 2(14) graph-set motifs. The dimers are further connected by C—H...O interactions into chains parallel to [001]. A Hirshfeld surface analysis suggests that the most significant contribution to the crystal packing is by H...H contacts (26.3%). Calculations performed on the optimized structure obtained using density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP with the 6–311 G++(d,p) basis set reveal that the HOMO–LUMO energy gap is 4.12 eV, indicating the suitability of this crystal for optoelectronic and biological applications. The nucleophilic and electrophilic binding site regions are elucidated using the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP).

The title compound, C15H14N2O3, was prepared by condensation of 2-hydroxy-5-methyl-benzaldehyde and 2-methyl-3-nitro-phenylamine in ethanol. The configuration of the C=N bond is E. An intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond is present, forming an S(6) ring motif and inducing the phenol ring and the Schiff base to be nearly coplanar [C—C—N—C torsion angle of 178.53 (13)°]. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O interactions, forming chains along the b-axis direction. The Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H...H (37.2%), C...H (30.7%) and O...H (24.9%) interactions. The gas phase density functional theory (DFT) optimized structure at the B3LYP/ 6–311 G(d,p) level is compared to the experimentally determined molecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C11H12N2O2·H2O, contains a molecule of 1,4,6-trimethyl-1,4-dihydroquinoxaline-2,3-dione and a solvent water molecule. Four atoms of the benzene ring are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.706 (7):0.294 (7) ratio while the N-bound methyl groups are rotationally disordered with occupancy ratios of 0.78 (4):0.22 (4) and 0.76 (5):0.24 (5). In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds into layers lying parallel to (10\overline{1}). The Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the packing arrangement are due to H...H (51.3%) and O...H/H...O (28.6%) interactions.

The title chalcone compounds, C27H18O (I) and C33H20O (II), were synthesized using a Claisen–Schmidt condensation. Both compounds display an s-trans configuration of the enone moiety. The crystal structures feature intermolecular C—H...O and C—H...π interactions. Quantum chemical analysis of density functional theory (DFT) with a B3LYP/6–311++G(d,p) basis set has been employed to study the structural properties of the compound. The effect of the intermolecular interactions in the solid state are responsible for the differences between the experimental and theoretical optimized geometrical parameters. The small HOMO–LUMO energy gap in (I) (exp : 3.18 eV and DFT: 3.15 eV) and (II) (exp : 2.76 eV and DFT: 2.95 eV) indicates the suitability of these compounds for optoelectronic applications. The intermolecular contacts and weak contributions to the supramolecular stabilization are analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis.
