Density functional method was applied to the study of the highly efficient primary explosive 2-diazo-4,6-dinitrophenol (DDNP) in both gaseous tautomers and its bulk state. Two stable tautomers were located. It was found that the structure (I) with open diazo, i.e. with linear CNN, is more stable than that with diazo ring tautomer (II) of DDNP. The structure I is in good agreement with the structure in the bulk. The lattice energy is -89.01 kJ/mol, and this value drops to -83.29 kJ/mol when a 50% correction of the basis set superposition error was adopted. The frontier bands are quite flat. The carbon atoms in DDNP make up the upper valence bands. While the lower conduction bands mainly consist of carbon and diazo N atoms. The bond populations of C–N bonds (both C–Nitro and C–Diazo) are much less than those of the other bonds and the detonation may be initiated through the breakdown of C–N bonds.

3-nitroanilinium hydrogen oxalate has been crystallized successfully by solvent evaporation method. Optimized molecular geometrical parameters and the vibrational assignments of 3NAOX has been calculated by using Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional method (B3LYP) with 6-311++G (d, p) basis set. The computational analysis showed good agreement with the experimental data. The energy and various parameters were obtained by HOMO–LUMO plot. The apparent pharmaceutical/biological activity of the salt confirmed by lower band gap value obtain from the Frontier Molecular Orbital (FMO) analysis. Thermal properties of 3NAOX were analyzed by TGA/DTA. The grown crystals were involved in an antimicrobial activity against certain potentially threatening microbes which shows that grown crystal screened the bacteria.

The density functional method of wB97xD in combination of 6-31+G** basis set was applied to the study of the heterodimers between hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine and water. Three stable dimers were located. The binding energies have been corrected for the zero-point vibrational and basis set superposition errors. The largest corrected binding energy is 26.21 kJ/mol. Natural bond orbital analyses and frequency calculations were performed on each optimized structure. The thermodynamic properties of enthalpies, entropies and Gibbs free energies in the dimerization process were presented.

This work deals about the synthesis, NMR characterization and the density functional method (B3LYP) with the 6-31G basis set of 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions between the two azides as dipoles and propargylchloroisatin as dipolarophile. Furthermore, DFT calculations were used to study the nucleophile–electrophile interactions of the azides and dipolarophile and also the stability between the regioisomers comparing their energy. Our calculations are in a good agreement with the experimental findings.

Substituted Cyclopropanes

The hydroboration of substituted cyclopropanes has been investigated using the B3LYP density functional method employing 6-31G** basis set. Borane moiety approaching the cyclopropane ring has been reported. It is shown that the reaction proceeds via a three-centered, “loose” and “tight,” transition states when boron added to the cyclopropane across a bond to a substituents. Single point calculations at higher levels of theory were also performed at the geometries optimized at the B3LYP level, but only slight changes in the barriers were observed. Structural parameters for the transition state are also reported.

The Density Functional Theory

Within the framework of the density functional theory, the method was developed to calculate the band gap of semiconductors. We have evaluated the band gap for a number of monoatomic and diatomic semiconductors (Sn, Ge, Si, SiC, GaN, C, BN, AlN). The method gives the band gap of almost experimental accuracy. An important point is the fact that the developed method can be used to calculate both localized states (energy deep levels of defects in crystal), and electronic properties of nanostructures.

In these study we have been obtained the structural properties of (exTTF) derivatives 1-4 by using B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) of Density Functional Theory (DFT) utilizing Becke three exchange functional and Lee Yang Paar correlation functional. The calculation of first hyperpolarizability shows that the molecules are attractive molecules for future applications in non-linear optics. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) at a point in the space around a molecule gives an indication of the net electrostatic effect produced at that point by the total charge distribution of the molecule. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that charge transfer occurs within these molecules.

<div> <div> <div> <p>We present an origin-invariant approach to compute the full optical rotation tensor (Buckingham/Dunn tensor) in the length dipole gauge without recourse to London atomic orbitals, called LG(OI). The LG(OI) approach is simpler and less computationally demanding than the more common LG-London and modified velocity gauge (MVG) approaches and it can be used with any approximate wave function or density functional method. We report an implementation at coupled cluster with single and double excitations level (CCSD), for which we present the first simulations of the origin-invariant Buckingham/Dunn tensor in the length gauge. With this method, we attempt to decouple the effects of electron correlation and basis set incompleteness on the choice of gauge for optical rotation calculations on simple test systems. The simulations show a smooth convergence of the LG(OI) and MVG results with the basis set size towards the complete basis set limit. However, these preliminary results indicate that CCSD may not be close to a complete description of the electron correlation effects on this property even for small molecules, and that basis set incompleteness may be a less important cause of discrepancy between choices of gauge than electron correlation incompleteness. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Donor And Acceptor

Weak interactions between organic donor and acceptor molecules resulting in cofacially-stacked aggregates ("CT complexes") were studied by second-order many-body perturbation theory (MP2) and by gradient-corrected hybrid Hartree-Fock/density functional theory (B3LYP exchange-correlation functional). The complexes consist of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) and related compounds and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE). Density functional theory (DFT) and MP2 molecular equilibrium geometries of the component structures are calculated by means of 6-31G*, 6-31G*(0.25), 6-31++G**, 6-31++G(3df,2p) and 6-311G** basis sets. Reliable molecular geometries are obtained for the donor and acceptor compounds considered. The geometries of the compounds were kept frozen in optimizing aggregate structures with respect to the intermolecular distance. The basis set superposition error (BSSE) was considered (counterpoise correction). According to the DFT and MP2 calculations laterally-displaced stacks are more stable than vertical stacks. The charge transfer from the donor to the acceptor is small in the ground state of the isolated complexes. The cp-corrected binding energies of TTF/TCNE amount to -1.7 and -6.3 kcal/mol at the DFT(B3LYP) and MP2(frozen) level of theory, respectively (6-31G* basis set). Larger binding energies were obtained by Hobza's 6-31G*(0.25) basis set. The larger MP2 binding energies suggest that the dispersion energy is underestimated or not considered by the B3LYP functional. The energy increases when S in TTF/TCNE is replaced by O or NH but decreases with substitution by Se. The charge-transferred complexes in the triplet state are favored in the vertical arrangement. Self-consistent-reaction-field (SCRF) calculations predicted a gain in binding energy with solvation for the ground-state complex. The ground-state charge transfer between the components is increased up to 0.8 e in polar solvents.

AbstractThe geometry, frequency and intensity of the vibrational bands of 8-hydroxyquinoline and its 5,7-dichloro, 5,7-dibromo, 5,7-diiodo and 5,7-dinitro derivatives were obtained by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations with Becke3-Lee-Parr (B3LYP) functional and 6-31G* basis set. The effects of chloride, bromide, iodide and nitro substituent on the vibrational frequencies of 8-hydroxyquinoline have been investigated. The assignments have been proposed with aid of the results of normal coordinate analysis. The observed and calculated spectra are found to be in good agreement.
