Ab initio method is used to figure out the structures and photo-physical processes of 2-aryl substituted indoles, 2-phenylindole (2PI), 2-naphthylindole (2NI), and 2-anthracenylindole (2AI), synthesized experimentally with strong fluorescence. The results show that the photoabsorption and fluorescence measured experimentally correspond to the monovalent anions deprotonated in the indole NH end, other than the neutral compounds. During the photochemical reaction, the angles between the planes of the indole and 2-aryl substituted moieties keep unchanged, but the photo-induced intramolecular charge transfer can immediately occur in the anions. Furthermore, the photo-physical processes after photoexcitation are analyzed by using a linear reaction coordinate.

The character of the NH ...X- (X- = H, F, Cl, CN, NC or NCO) interactions of borazine with anions was studied using ab initio method. The interaction energies were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. The energetic and geometric characteristics of the complexes were compared. The 'atoms in molecules' methodology was used to analyze the electron density and to obtain atomic contributions to the total energy and charge of the systems. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis demonstrated the charge transfer in the study of the nature of the intermolecular interactions. The aromaticity of these compounds was predicted in light of the nucleus-independent chemical shift (NICS).
