The optimized molecular structures, conformational analyses, vibrational (IR) frequencies and their assignments, maximum electronic absorption wavelengths (gas phase and in ethanol solvent), 1H and 13C NMR chemical shift values (gas phase and in CDCl3 solvent), HOMO−LUMO analysis, molecular electrostatic potential surfaces, and nonlinear optical properties of flufenpyr (C14H9ClF4N2O4) and amipizone (C14H16ClN3O) compounds that have many biological activities have been calculated using the DFT/B3LYP, B3PW91, and HSEH1PBE methods with the 6-311G(d,p) basis set in the ground state. A comparison among the results calculated at the mentioned levels indicates that the HSEH1PBE calculations give usually greater values compared with the others in terms of vibrational frequencies, the maximum electronic absorption wavelengths, and HOMO−LUMO energy gaps of the title compounds.

The spectroscopic, optical, and electronic properties of tetrahydrofuran and its derivatives were investigated by FTIR techniques. We have done a comparative study of tetrahydrofuran and its derivatives with B3LYP with 6-311 G (d, p) as the basis set. Here we have done a relative study of their structures, vibrational assignments, and thermal, electronic, and optical properties of ttetrahydrofuran and its derivatives. We have plotted frontier orbital HOMO-LUMO surfaces and molecular electrostatic potential surfaces to explain the reactive nature of tetrahydrofuran and its derivatives.

In this work, the 4-ethoxy-2-methyl-5-(4-morpholinyl)-3(2H)-pyridazinone (or emarfazone, C11H17N3O3) compound, which has many biological functions, has been investigated using FT-IR, 1H and 13C NMR (in CDCl3 solvent), and UV-vis (in ethanol solvent) spectroscopic techniques. Furthermore, the optimized molecular structure, conformational analysis, vibrational frequencies and their assignments, 1H and 13C NMR chemical shift values (in gas phase and CHCl3 solvent), HOMO–LUMO, MEP (molecular electrostatic potential), NBO (natural bond orbital) analyses, and nonlinear optical (NLO) parameters of the title compound in the ground state have been explored by using DFT/HSEH1PBE method with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The electronic absorption maximum wavelengths and oscillator strengths (in gas phase and ethanol solvent) were also obtained at TD-DFT/HSEH1PBE level. A comparison among the experimental and calculated results at the mentioned level indicates that the vibrational frequencies and maximum electronic absorption wavelengths are in good agreement with each other.

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.

This work reports density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the molecular structures, electronic distribution, and UV-Vis and IR spectroscopy analysis of charge transfer complexes between aminopyridines (APYs), namely 2-APY, 3-APY and 4-APY, as electron-donors and some [Formula: see text]-electron-acceptors, namely chloranil (CHL), tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) and picryl chloride (PC), formed in the gas phase at the B3LYP/6-31[Formula: see text]G(d,p) method/basis set, and in chloroform at the same method/basis set using PCM as solvation model. Good correspondence was generally obtained between the calculated parameters and the experimental ones.

In the present paper, the chemical potential of four flavonoids i.e. apigenin, luteolin, quercetin, and myricetin, of interest in the pharmaceutical industry was investigated using molecular modelling. The equilibrium geometry of molecular structures was calculated in the gas phase and ground state by using B3LYP hybrid functional in conjunction with a 6-311G(d,p) basis set. In order to assess the chemical potential of investigated flavonoids, the main quantum molecular descriptors, such as the dipole moment, the energy of the highest/lowest occupied/unoccupied molecular orbital, the gap energy, the electronegativity, the chemical hardness/softness, and the electrophilicity index have been computed. Also, the influence of the hydroxylation degree of chemical compounds on the chemical potential is discussed.

The benzopyran ring of the title compound, C16H11ClN2O2, is planar [maximum deviation = 0.079 (2) Å] and is almost perpendicular to the chlorophenyl ring [dihedral angle = 86.85 (6)°]. In the crystal, N—H...O, O—H...N, C—H...O and C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds form inter- and intramolecular interactions. The DFT/B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) method was used to determine the HOMO–LUMO energy levels. The molecular electrostatic potential surfaces were investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots were used to analyse the intermolecular interactions in the molecule.

Oxazine and thiazine heterocycles have distinctive interests due to their important class of natural and non-natural products and exhibit high biological activities in the pharmaceutical and biological fields. This work was planned to synthesize Schiff base of 1,3-oxazine and 1,3-thiazine derivative from 4-phenyl substituted chalcones. The structures of the newly synthesized targeted compounds were established from UV, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and DFT calculations. The molecular properties HOMO-LUMO energy, energy gap, softness and harness were calculated using DFT/B3LYP/6-311G (d,p) basis set. in vitro Antibacterial activities of Schiff bases of 1,3-oxazines and 1,3-thiazines derivatives were investigated against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli) and compared with each other. It was found that thiazine derivatives showed higher activity.

In the current work, the vibrational frequencies, infrared intensities, molecular geometry and Raman scattering were determined and investigated using ab initio Hartree–Fock (HF) and density functional methods with a basis set of 6-311++ G (d, p) of the organic molecule under interpretation. The FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of titled molecule have been recorded in the region 4000-400 cm-1 and 5000-70 cm-1, respectively. The optimized geometry structures (bond lengths and bond angles) achieved using HF shows the best result with the experimental values of the titled molecule. The frontier molecular orbitals help to distinguish chemical responsiveness and molecular kinetic steadiness, thus HOMO-LUMO analysis can be done using the quantum chemistry to improve thermodynamics. The electron density mapping to electrostatic potential surfaces were involved in finding the reactivity sites of the titled compound. With the help of Gauss view 5.0 and Chemcraft packages, the obtained outputs are analyzed. Hyperpolarizability and non-linear optical effect of isolated molecules of NLO materials are observed to be an extensive tool for molecular spectroscopy research. Therefore, for industrial application, Hyperpolarizability of the molecule is also studied.
