We investigated properties of an armchair nanotube attached by specific numbers of diketone groups along the tube axis using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The results from DFT calculations show that multiple diketone attachments into an armchair nanotube cleave the CC bonds along the tube axis, forming a large hole. Then, the six-membered rings surrounding the hole are planarized, and zigzag edges appear. Due to these geometrical changes, the functionalized armchair nanotubes exhibit properties similar to those in corresponding graphene ribbons with zigzag edges. For example, diketone-attached nanotubes have a spin-polarized ground state with frontier orbitals whose amplitudes are localized at diketone O atoms. As a consequence of the existence of the localized orbitals, unpaired electrons appear only on the diketone O atoms in an armchair nanotube.

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to investigate the structures of chloro silsesquioxanes Si2nO3nCl2n (n=1-5). Our study focuses on the structures, stabilities, and electronic properties of the chloro silsesquioxanes. The large HOMO–LUMO gaps, which range from 4.54 to 7.39 eV, imply optimal electronic structures for these molecules.

Diels Alder Reaction

Aimed at predicting relative reactivities, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out on a series of Diels–Alder reactions involving silylvinyl derivatives reacting with cyclopentadiene as part of a synthetic research project. Using three reactions for which experimental rate data are available to calibrate our calculations, we computationally pinpointed the best synthetic route to bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,2-diylbis(trimethylsilane) (1). The synthesis begins with the Diels–Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene (2) with commercially available (1-bromovinyl)trimethylsilane (6).
