AbstractIn alkali-tetraphenylimidodiphosphate ion aggregates, the size of the cation determines the curvature of the ligand and, therefore, whether hexameric ellipsoidal clusters or polymeric chains are formed. To further characterize the ligand spatial requirements, the phenyl rings have been methylsubstituted in 4-, 3/5-, 3/4- or 2,3-positions, their conformations structurally analyzed and correlated with the van der Waals substituent profiles. In addition, relativistic density functional theory potential curves have been calculated for the Cs⊕ ··· Cs⊕interactions in simplified model systems.

A second polymorph of phenylselenium trichloride, PhSeCl3 or C6H5Cl3Se, is disclosed, which is comprised of asymmetric chlorine-bridged noncovalent dimer units rather than polymeric chains. These dimers are each weakly bound to an adjacent dimer through noncovalent Se...Cl bonding interactions. Phenyl rings within each dimer are oriented in a syn fashion. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the putative anti isomer is within 5 kJ mol−1 of the experimentally observed form. This structure represents the first additional polymorph discovered for an organoselenium trihalide compound.

AbstractIn this study, we present the synthesis, spectroscopic and structural characterization of self-assembling gem-dimethyl imine based molecular cage (IMC). Self-assembling macrocycles and cages have well-defined cavities and have extensive functionalities ranging from energy storage, liquid crystals, and catalysts to water splitting photo absorber. IMC has large voids i.e., 25% of the total crystal volume thus could accommodate wide substrates. The synthesized imine-based molecular cages are stabilized by coaxial π bonded networks and long-range periodic van der Waal and non-bonded contacts as observed from the crystal structure. IMC also has typical properties of soft condensed matter materials, hence theoretical prediction of stress and strain tensor along with thermophysical properties were computed on crystal system and were found to be stable. Molecular dynamics revealed IMC is stabilized by, strong interactions between the interstitial phenyl rings. Density functional theory (DFT) based physicochemical properties were evaluated and has band gap of around 2.38ev (520 nm) similar to various photocatalytic band gap materials.

Density functional theory is used to determine the possible crystal structure of the CaSiO3 perovskites and their evolution under pressure. The ideal cubic perovskite is considered as a starting point for studying several possible lower-symmetry distorted structures. The theoretical lattice parameters and the atomic coordinates for all the structures are determined, and the results are discussed with respect to experimental data.

Computational density functional theory (DFT) model of the adsorption of chlorine atoms onto the perfect Al (111) surface has been performed. The structural and electronic properties of chlorine atoms adsorbed on the surface are investigated within a supercell approach for chlorine coverages of 0.25, 0.33, 0.5 and 1 ML respectively. It is found that the adsorbates prefer on-top sites over bridge, hcp and fcc sites in low coverage while fcc sites in high coverage, and the binding energy decrease with increase of coverage due to the interactions of chlorine atoms. The discussion of geometrical and electronic analysis by plotting differential charge density distribution and projected density of states (PDOS) are presented.
