            Density Functional Theory (DFT) method of the type (B3LYP) and a Gaussian basis set (6-311G) were applied for calculating the vibration frequencies and absorption intensities for normal coordinates (3N-6) at the equilibrium geometry of the Di and Tetra-rings layer (6, 0) zigzag single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by using Gaussian-09 program. Both were found to have the same symmetry of D6d point group with C--C bond alternation in all tube rings (for axial bonds, which are the vertical C--Ca bonds in rings layer and for circumferential bonds C—Cc in the outer and mid rings bonds). Assignments of the modes of vibration IR active and inactive vibration frequencies (symmetric and asymmetric modes) based on the image modes applied by the Gaussian 09 display. The whole relations for the vibration modes were also done including nCH stretching, nC--C stretching, δCH, δring (δC--C--C) deformation in plane of the molecule) and gCH, gring (gC--C--C) deformation out of plane of the molecule. The assignment also included modes of puckering, breathing and clock-anticlockwise bending vibrations.

Semi-empirical methods were applied for calculating the vibration frequencies and IR absorption intensities for normal coordinates of the {mono (C56H28), di (C84H28), tri (C112H28) and tetra (C140H28)} -rings layer for (7,7) armchair single wall carbon nanotube at their equilibrium geometries which were all found to have D7d symmetry point group. Assignment of the modes of vibration (3N-6) was done depending on the pictures of their modes by applying (Gaussian 03) program. Comparison of the vibration frequencies of (mono, di, tri and tetra) rings layer which are active in IR, and inactive in Ramman spectra. For C-H stretching vibrations, the results showed that vibration frequencies value increased with increased of length nano tube (rings layer SWCNT). The results include the relation for axial bonds, which are the vertical C-C bonds (annular bonds) in the rings and for circumferential bonds which are the outer ring bonds. Also include the assignment of puckering, breathing and clock-anticlockwise bending vibrations. They allow a comparative view of the charge density at the carbon atom too.

MINDO/3-FORCES calculations were carried out for the radical ions of benz[a]anthracene. Both ions exhibit Cs symmetry with C-C bond alternation in all four rings. The obtained equilibrium geometry was applied for the calculation of all 3N − 6 vibration frequencies of each ion, and for the analysis of their normal coordinates. The so calculated frequencies of the radical cation were close to the experimental frequencies and those of the ab initio calculations. They fall in the ranges νCHstr. (3034 - 3087 cm−1), νCCstr. (1237 - 1609 cm−1), δCH (1142 - 1216 cm−1). Interesting correlations could be obtained for the frequencies of similar vibrations, e. g. νsymCHstr. >νasymCHstr. Exception is the frequency of vibration of CHα in ring A for the radical cation and the same bond in ring D for the radical anion. The vibration frequencies for the CH bonds depend on the σ -electron densities of the corresponding carbon atoms, i. e. νCH.+str. >νCHstr. >νCH.−str., where σ −ρĊ+ >σ −ρC >σ −ρĊ− . For the C-C stretching vibrations the relation ν(C-C)str. >ν(C-C).−str. >ν(C-C).+str. holds, with the exception of the Cβ -Cβ bond, for which the relation ν(C-C)str. >ν(C-C).+str. >ν(C-C).−str. is found. As for the in-plane and out of-plane deformations, the following general correlations δ (CH) >δ (CH).− >δ (CH).+ and γ (CC) >γ (CC).− >γ (CC).+.

Synthesis of 3-(1-((benzoyloxy)imino)ethyl)-2H-chromen-2-ones (1-5) was accomplished and it was characterized experimentally using various analytical techniques. Computational studies have been carried out for all compounds 1-5 using B3LYP method with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The optimized structural features viz. bond lengths, bond angles, and dihedral angles are compared with their single-crystal X-ray diffraction results of compound 1 (Crystal data for C18H13NO4 (M = 307.29 g/mol): Monoclinic, space group P21/c (no. 14), a = 11.399(5) Å, b = 5.876(5) Å, c = 21.859(5) Å, β = 91.060(5)°, V = 1463.9(14) Å3, Z = 4, T = 293(2) K, μ(MoKα) = 0.100 mm-1, Dcalc = 1.394 g/cm3, 13555 reflections measured (3.58° ≤ 2Θ ≤ 56.98°), 3669 unique (Rint = 0.0235) which were used in all calculations. The final R1 was 0.0444 (>2sigma(I)) and wR2 was 0.1506 (all data)), which are in good conformity with each other. Normal modes of vibrational frequencies of compounds 1-5 acquired from density-functional theory (DFT) method coincided with the experimental ones. The 1H and 13C chemical shifts of compounds 1-5 have been calculated by GIAO method and the results have been compared with the experimental ones. The first-order hyperpolarizability and their related properties of the novel molecules 1-5 are calculated computationally. The other parameters like natural bond orbital, zero-point vibrational energy, EHOMO, ELUMO, heat capacity and entropy have also been discussed.

Quantum-chemical ab initio, time-independent, as well as time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations were performed on the so far elusive heterocycles inda- and thallabenzene (C5H5In and C5H5Tl), employing several different methods (MP2, CISD, CCSD, CCSD(T), BD, BD(T), QCISD, QCISD(T), CASSCF, DFT/B3LYP), effective core potentials, and different basis sets. While calculations on the MP2 level predict the ground states of the title compounds to be singlets with the first triplet states between 13 and 15 kcal mol−1 higher in energy, single point calculations with the QCISD(T), CCSD(T), and BD(T) methods at CCSD-optimized structures result in energy differences between the singlet and the triplet states in the range between 0.3 and 2.1 kcal mol−1 in favour of the triplet states. According to a CASSCF(8,8) calculation the triplets are also more stable by about 2.5–2.9 kcal mol−1. Calculations were also performed for the C5v-symmetric η5 structural isomers (cyclopentadienylindium, CpIn, and cyclopentadienylthallium, CpTl, Cp = C5H5) of the title compounds. At the highest level of theory employed in this study, C5H5In is between 79 and 88 kcal mol−1 higher in energy than CpIn, while this energy difference is even larger for thallabenzene where C5H5Tl is energetically between 94 and 102 kcal mol−1 above CpTl. In addition we report on the UV/vis spectra calculated with a TD-DFT method as well as on the spectra of the normal modes of C5H5In and C5H5Tl. Both types of spectra might facilitate identification of the title compounds eventually formed in photolysis or pyrolysis experiments.

Recently the three-dimensional structure of verdoheme heme oxygenase complex was revealed. However, many parameters of verdoheme heme oxygenase’s complex structure and their role and function on Heme degradation were unknown. In this work the structure of iron verdoheme in complex with heme oxygenase was compared by the density functional theory (DFT)-based B3LYP method using the 6-31G basis set. Many parameters such as charge of verdoheme and iron as central metal, electron distribution, spin multiplicity of the molecule and proximal substituents effects on verdoheme ring stabilization and their arrangement are discussed and compared for twelve different conformations of the molecules to find the most energetically stable states.

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.

The computational Quantum Chemistry (QC) has been used for different types of problems, for example: structural biology, surface phenomena and liquid phase. In this paper we have employed the density functional method for the study of molecular structure of loganin. The equilibrium geometry, harmonic vibrational frequencies and infrared intensities were calculated by B3LYP/6-311G (d, p) method and basis set combinations. It was found that the optimized parameters obtained by the DFT/B3LYP method are very near to the experimental ones. A detailed conformational analysis was carried out. A detailed interpretation of the infrared spectra of loganin is also reported in the present work. The FT-IR spectra of loganin were recorded in solid phase. The thermodynamic calculations related to the title compound were also performed at B3LYP/6-311G (d, p) level of theory.

Static polarizabilities are the first response of the electron density to electric fields, and are therefore important for predicting intermolecular and molecule-field interactions. They also offer a global measure of the accuracy of the treatment of excited states by density functionals in a formally exact manner. We have developed a database of benchmark static polarizabilities for 132 small species at equilibrium geometry, using coupled cluster theory through triple excitations (extrapolated to the complete basis set limit), for the purpose of developing and assessing density functionals. The performance of 60 popular and recent functionals are also assessed, which indicates that double hybrid functionals perform the best, having RMS errors in the range of 2.5-3.8% . Many hybrid functionals also give quite reasonable estimates with 4-5% RMSE. A few meta-GGAs like mBEEF and MVS yield performance comparable to hybrids, indicating potential for improved excited state predictions relative to typical local functionals. Some recent functionals however are found to be prone to catastrophic failure (possibly as a consequence of overparameterization), indicating a need for caution in applying these.

: In this research, the four pyrimidine derivatives have been studied by using density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP/6-31G*) in solvent water for the first time. After quantum-chemical calculations, the title compounds have been synthesized. The electronic spectra of the new derivatives in a solvent water were performed by time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) method. The equilibrium geometry, the HOMO and LUMO orbitals, MEP, excitation energies, natural charges, oscillator strengths for the molecules have also been calculated. NBO analysis has been calculated in order to elucidate the intramolecular, rehybridization and delocalization of electron density. These molecules have high antioxidant potential due to the planarity and formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds. Antioxidant properties of the title compounds have been investigated and discussed.

Polysaccharide biopolymer Agar-Agar extracted from red algae is a natural and biodegradable polymer. It is a combination of agarose (a neutral and linear polymer, with repeated units of agarobiose) and a heterogeneous mixture of agaropectin (a charged sulfated polymer). In this study, a comparative study of structural vibrational and electrochemical properties of agar-agar biopolymer with two different methods HF (Hartree-Fock) and DFT (Density Functional Theory) using a basis set 631+G (d, p) is performed. The comparative structural study of agar-agar biopolymer by HF and DFT method has been carried out to calculate the stability of the molecule. The thermionic properties and Mulliken charge distribution are analysed to deliver a quantitative study of partial atomic charge distribution. The overall vibrational analysis of primal modes of the biopolymer has been studied using FTIR analysis. Based on highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) composition and energies, various chemical parameters of the biopolymer have been evaluated. The Physico-chemical properties of this polysaccharide show a strong correlation with its optimized structure. Agar-agar has its application in the electrochemical, biotechnological, and pharmaceutical fields, as a stabilizer and gelling material.
