Experimental Findings

Vibrational frequencies of aniline in gas phase have been calculated and each of their modes of vibration assigned properly at RHF and DFT with 6-31G(d) basis set. In the present study, it has been observed that the 6-31G(d) basis set at both RHF and DFT levels of calculations provides better agreement to the experimental findings as compared to other basis sets. Simultaneously, Density functional theory is found to be superior to its counterpart Hartree Fock method.

<p>We thoroughly benchmark time-dependent density- functional theory for the predictive calculation of UV/Vis spectra of porphyrin derivatives. With the aim to provide an approach that is computationally feasible for large-scale applications such as biological systems or molecular framework materials, albeit performing with high accuracy for the Q-bands, we compare the results given by various computational protocols, including basis sets, density-functionals (including gradient corrected local functionals, hybrids, double hybrids and range-separated functionals), and various variants of time-dependent density-functional theory, including the simplified Tamm-Dancoff approximation. An excellent choice for these calculations is the range-separated functional CAM-B3LYP in combination with the simplified Tamm-Dancoff approximation and a basis set of double-ζ quality def2-SVP (mean absolute error [MAE] of ~0.05 eV). This is not surpassed by more expensive approaches, not even by double hybrid functionals, and solely systematic excitation energy scaling slightly improves the results (MAE ~0.04 eV). </p>

Abstract Perylene based novel organic sensitizers for the Dye sensitized solar cell applications are investigated by using Density functional theory (DFT) and time dependant density functional theory (TD-DFT).The designed sensitizers have perylene and dimethylamine (DM) and N-N-dimethylaniline(DMA) functionalized perylene for the dssc applications.π-spacers are thiophene andcyanovinyl groups and cyanoacrylic acid is chosen as the acceptor for the designed sensitizers. The studied sensitizers were fully optimized by density functional theory at B3LYP/6-311G basis set on gas phase and DMF phase. The electronic absorption of the sensitizers is analyzed by TD-DFT at B3LYP/6-311G basis set in both gas and DMF phase.

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.

A computational study has been performed for protonated oxygen- or nitrogen-containing heterocyclic derivatives of cyclopropane and cyclopropanone. We have searched for the most stable conformations of the protonated species using density functional theory with the B3LYP functional and the 6-31G(2df,p) basis set. More accurate enthalpy values were obtained from G4 calculations. Proton affinities and gas-phase basicities were accordingly derived.

Abstract Molecular orbital calculations were performed for the six saturated alkylamines (CH3NH2 , (CH3)2 NH, (CH 3)3 N, CH 3CH2NH2 , (CH3)2 CHNH2 , (CH3)3 CNH2), their protonated cations (CH3NH3 + , (CH3)2NH2 + , (CH3)3NH + , CH3CH2NH3 + , (CH3)2CHNH3 + , (CH3)3CNH3+), and (CH3)4 N + using the Hartree-Fock, second-order M0ller-Plesset, and density functional theory methods with the 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. Protonation lengthens the C-N bonds of the amines by 0.05 -0.08 Å and shortens the C-C bonds of CH3CH2NH2, (CH3)2CHNH2 , and (CH3)3CNH2 by ca. 0.01 Å.

AbstractIn this paper, the molecular geometry, vibrational frequencies and chemical shifts of (6-Methoxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yl)methyl pyrrolidine-1-carbodithioate in the ground state have been calculated using the Hartree-Fock and density functional methods with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. To investigate the nonlinear optical properties of the title compound, the polarizability and the first hyperpolarizability were calculated. The conformational properties of the molecule have been determined by analyzing molecular energy properties. Using the time dependent density functional theory, electronic absorption spectra have been calculated. Frontier molecular orbitals, natural bond orbitals, natural atomic charges and thermodynamical parameters were also investigated by using the density functional theory calculations.
