Density functional theory (DFT) method and B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set were used to determine coordination geometries, binding strength, and metal ion affinity (MIA) for interaction of 2′-deoxythymidine (dT) with alkali metal cations including Li+, Na+ , and K+ . Calculations demonstrated that the interaction of dT with these cations is tri-coordinated η (O2, O4′, O5′). Among these cations, Li+ cation exhibited the most tendency for interaction with dT. Cations via their interaction with dT can affect the N-glycosidic bond length, the values of pseudorotation of the sugar ring, the orientation of base unit with respect to sugar ring and the acidity of O5′H, O3′H, and N3H groups in 2′-dT nucleoside. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis was performed to calculate the charge transfer and natural population analysis of the complexes. Quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) was also applied to determine the nature of interactions. It was shown that in these complexes, (dT- Li+ , dT- Na+ , and dT- K+ ), the bonds are an electrostatic (closed-shell) interaction in the nature.

In the present research, B45H36N45 Born Nitride (9,9) nanotube (BNNT) and Al45H36N45 Aluminum nitride (9,9) nanotube (AlNNT) have been studied, both having the same length of 5 angstroms. The main reason for choosing boron nitride nanotubes is their interesting properties compared with carbon nanotubes. For example, resistance to oxidation at high temperatures, chemical and thermal stability higher rather than carbon nanotubes and conductivity in these nanotubes, unlike carbon nanotubes, does not depend on the type of nanotube chirality. The method used in this study is the density functional theory (DFT) at Becke3, Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) method and 6-31G* basis set for all the calculations. At first, the samples were simulated and then the optimized structure was obtained using Gaussian 09 software. The structural parameters of each nanotube were determined in 5 layers. Frequency calculations in order to extract the thermodynamic parameters and natural bond orbital (NBO) calculations have been performed to evaluate the electron density and electrostatic environment of different layers, energy levels and related parameters, such as ionization energy and electronic energy, bond gap energy and the share of hybrid orbitals of different layers.

They were computed to predict the reactivity and the reactive sites on the molecules. The molecular geometry and the electronic properties in the ground state such as frontier molecular orbital (HOMO and LUMO), ionization potential (I) and electron affinity (A) were investigated to get a better insight of the molecular properties. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) for all compounds were determined to check their electrophilic or nucleophilic reactivity. Fukui index, polarizability, hyperpolarizability, second order NLO property and natural bond orbital (NBO) analyses have also employed to determine the reactivity of bis (1,4-dithiafulvalene) derivatives.

The present research deals with the synthesis, characterization and density functional theory (DFT) study of (E)-1-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (DTMPP). For the computational investigation, DFT method at B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set has been used. Herein, structural properties like molecular structure, bond lengths, and bond angles of the DTMPP have been explored. The all-important examination of the electronic properties; HOMO and LUMO energies were studied by the time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) method. The experimental and theoretical spectroscopic Investigation on FT-IR, 1HNMR, 13C NMR has been unveiled in the present research. To study the chemical behaviour of the DTMPP, Mulliken atomic charges, molecular electrostatic surface potential, and reactivity descriptors have been explored. The dipole moment of the DTMPP is 1.27 Debye with C1 point group symmetry and -1225.77 a.u. E(B3LYP) energy. The most electropositive carbon and hydrogen atoms in the DTMPP are C14 and H27 respectively. The C1-C6 bond is the longest (1.4089 Å) C=C bond in the DTMPP. The oxygen atom O33 is having short contact interaction with the hydrogen atom H44 with a distance of 3.3258 Å. The molecular electrostatic potential plot predicts the positive electrostatic potential is around hydrogen atoms. The FT-IR assignments were made by comparing the experimental FT-IR absorption peaks with the scaled frequencies obtained using DFT method. Furthermore, some valuable insights on thermochemical data are obtained using the harmonic frequencies at same basis set.

FT-IR (4000-400 cm-1) and FT-Raman (3500-50 cm-1) spectra of (E)-N'(thiophen-2yl methylene)isonicotinohydrazide (TMINH) molecule was recorded in solid phase. The optimized geometry was calculated by B3LYP method with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The harmonic vibrational frequencies, infrared (IR) intensities and Raman scattering activities of the title compound were performed at same level of theory. The complete vibrational assignments were performed on the basis of the Total energy distribution (TED) of the vibrational modes, calculated with scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) method. The calculated first hyperpolarizability may be attractive for further studies on non-linear optical (NLO) properties of material. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interaction and charge delocalization was analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. Highest occupied molecular orbital-Lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) energy gap explains the eventual charge transfer interactions taking place within the title molecule. A study on the electronic properties, such as excitation energies and wavelengths, were performed by time-dependent (TD-DFT) approach. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) provides the information on the electrophilic, nucleophilic and free radical prone reactive sites of the molecule.

In the title compound, C9H10ClNOS, the amide functional group –C(=O)NH– adopts a trans conformation with the four atoms nearly coplanar. This conformation promotes the formation of a C(4) hydrogen-bonded chain propagating along the [010] direction. The central part of the molecule, including the six-membered ring, the S and N atoms, is fairly planar (r.m.s. deviation of 0.014). The terminal methyl group and the C(=O)CH2 group are slightly deviating out-of-plane while the terminal Cl atom is almost in-plane. Hirshfeld surface analysis of the title compound suggests that the most significant contacts in the crystal are H...H, H...Cl/Cl...H, H...C/C...H, H...O/O...H and H...S/S...H. π–π interactions between inversion-related molecules also contribute to the crystal packing. DFT calculations have been performed to optimize the structure of the title compound using the CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6–311 G(d,p) basis set. The theoretical absorption spectrum of the title compound was calculated using the TD–DFT method. The analysis of frontier orbitals revealed that the π–π* electronic transition was the major contributor to the absorption peak in the electronic spectrum.

Present investigation deals with the synthesis and density functional theory study (DFT) of a chalcone derivative; (E)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (CPMPP). The synthesis of a CPMPP has been carried out by the reaction of 4-methoxyacetophenone and 4-chlorobenzalehyde in ethanol at 30 ℃ under ultrasound irradiation. The structure of a synthesized chalcone is affirmed on the basis of FT-IT, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The geometry of a CPMPP is optimized by using the density functional theory method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) basis set. The optimized geometrical parameters like bond length and bond angles have been computed. The absorption energies, oscillator strength, and electronic transitions have been derived at the TD-DFT method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory for B3LYP/6-31G(d p) optimized geometries. The effect of polarity on the absorption energies is discussed by computing UV-visible results in dichloromethane (DCM). Since theoretically obtained wavenumbers are typically higher than experimental wavenumbers, computed wavenumbers were scaled with a scaling factor, and vibrational assignments were made by comparing experimental wavenumbers to scaled theoretical wavenumbers. Quantum chemical parameters have been determined and examined. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surface plot analysis has been carried out at the same level of theory. Mulliken atomic charge study is also discussed in the present study.
