Выполнены первопринципные расчеты структуры и свойств орторомбического графена L и нового алмазоподобного бислоя, формируемого на его основе. Расчеты методом теории функционала плотности показали, что графен L, состоящий из топологических дефектов Стоуна-Уэльса, должен устойчиво существовать при нормальных условиях, и его структура должна волнообразно гофрироваться. При сильном одноосном сжатии бислойного графена L может происходить формирование нового алмазоподобного бислоя DL. Давление фазового перехода «L → DL» составляет 10,1 ГПа, когда межслоевое расстояние в бислойном графене уменьшается до 1,61 Å. Этот бислой имеет орторомбическую кристаллическую решетку (pbam) с параметрами a = 10,145 Å и b = 5,270 А. Элементарная ячейка бислоя DL pbam содержит 32 атома углерода. Длины связей изменяются в интервале от 1,5590 до 1,6226 Å, тогда как углы между связями принимают значения от 89,62 до 140,8°. Структура алмазоподобного бислоя должна быть стабильна до 270 К. Рассчитанные значения поверхностной плотности и разностной полной энергии этого бислоя относительно полной энергии алмаза равны 1,19·10 г/см и 1,31 эВ/атом, соответственно. Бислой DL pbam должен быть полупроводником с шириной прямой запрещенной зоны 1,63 эВ. Irst-principle calculations of the structure and properties of orthorhombic L graphene and a novel diamond-like bilayer formed on its basis are performed. The calculations using the density functional theory method showed that L- graphene of Stone-Wales defects should exist stably under normal conditions, and its structure should be corrugated in a wave-like manner. Under strong uniaxial compression of bilayer L graphene, the formation of the novel diamond-like DL bilayer can occur. The pressure of the « L → DL» phase transition is 10,1 GPa, when the interlayer distance in bilayer graphene decreases to 1,61 Å. This bilayer has an orthorhombic crystal lattice (pbam) with the parameters a = 10,145 Å and b = 5,270 Å. The unit cell of the DL- pbam bilayer contains 32 carbon atoms. The bond lengths vary in the range from 1,5590 to 1,6226 Å, while the angles between these bonds range from 89,62 to 140,8°. The structure of the diamond-like bilayer should be stable up to 270 K. The calculated values of the surface density and the difference total energy of this bilayer relative to the diamond total energy are 1,19 -10 g/cm and 1,31 eV/atom, respectively. The DL pbam bilayer should be a semiconductor with a straight bandgap of 1,63 eV.

Based on the density functional theory method, the ab initio calculation with GGA+U was performed to investigate the electronic structure and properties of W-doped TiO2. The results indicated that W-doping induced ferromagnetism and shifted the absorption spectra to visible light region. The ferromagnetism derived from the spin-split of O 2p and W 5d caused by p–d orbit hybridization. Several impurity bands under the conduction band decreased the band gap.

Методом теории функционала плотности было выполнено теоретическое исследование нового слоевого полиморфа алмаза DL, состоящего из двух полимеризованных тетрагональных графеновых слоев L. Установлено, что новый алмазоподобный слой имеет двумерную тетрагональную решетку с параметром a = b = 0,3822 нм и толщиной 0,1599 нм. Рассчитанные поверхностная плотность и ширина запрещенной зоны этого слоя равны 0,109 мкг/см и 2,63 эВ, соответственно. Новый слой DL должен быть устойчивым, как минимум, до 220 К. Также установлено, что слой DL может быть получен при сильном одноосном сжатии двух графеновых слоев L при давлении 29,6 ГПа. Using the density functional theory method, a theoretical study of a novel layered DL polymorph of diamond, consisting of two polymerized tetragonal graphene L layers, was performed. It was established that the new diamond-like layer has a two-dimensional tetragonal lattice with the parameter a = b = 0,3822 nm and a thickness of 0,1599 nm. The calculated surface density and band gap of this layer are 0,109 μg/cm and 2,63 eV, respectively. The new DL layer must be stable up to at least 220 K. It was also found that the DL layer can be obtained by strong uniaxial compression of two graphene L layers at a pressure of 29,6 GPa.

Gd endohedral complexes of C82 fullerenols were synthesized and mass spectrometry analysis of their composition was carried out. It was established that the synthesis yields a series of fullerenols Gd@C82Ox(OH)y (x = 0, 3; y = 8, 16, 24, 36, 44). The atomic and electronic structure and properties of the synthesized fullerenols were investigated using the density functional theory calculations. It was shown that the presence of endohedral gadolinium increases the reactivity of fullerenols. It is proposed that the high-spin endohedral fullerenols are promising candidates for application in magnetic resonance imaging.

Our theoretical study of stability and reactivity was carried out on six (06) molecules of a series of pyrimidine tetrazole hybrids (PTH) substituted with H, F, Cl, Br, OCH3 and CH3 atoms and groups of atoms using the density function theory (DFT). Analysis of the thermodynamic formation quantities confirmed the formation and existence of the series of molecules studied. Quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP / 6-311G (d, p) level of theory determined molecular descriptors. Global reactivity descriptors were also determined and analyzed. Thus, the results showed that the compound PTH_1 is the most stable, and PTH_5 is the most reactive and nucleophilic. Similarly, the compound PTH_4 is the most electrophilic. The analysis of the local descriptors and the boundary molecular orbitals allowed us to identify the preferred atoms for electrophilic and nucleophilic attacks.

The inhibition ability of a new Azomethine derivatives containing the 8-hydroxyquinoline (BDHQ and MDHQ) towards carbon steel corrosion in HCl solution was studied at various concentrations and temperatures using weight loss, polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. The experimental results reveal that BDHQ and MDHQ are efficient mixed type corrosion inhibitors, and their inhibition efficiencies increase with increasing concentration. The adsorption of these inhibitors on mild steel surface obeys Langmuir isotherm. Quantum chemical parameters are calculated using the Density Functional Theory method (DFT) and Monte Carlo simulations. Correlation between theoretical and experimental results is discussed.

Calculations of the structural and energy parameters, band structure and density of electronic states of new structural varieties of graphyne have been performed by the density functional theory method. The initial structure of the nine polymorphs was theoretically constructed on the basis of the 5-7a graphene layer. As a result of the calculations, the structure of only five graphyne layers was found to be stable: α-L5-7a, β1-L5-7a, β2-L5-7a, β3-L5-7a and β4-L5-7a. The structure of layers γ1-L5-7a, γ2-L5-7a, and γ3-L5-7a is transformed into the structure of graphene layers by geometric optimization, and the graphyne layer γ4-L5-7a is transformed sp+sp2 layer L3-6-13. The sublimation energy of the stable graphyne polymorphs varies from 6.66 to 6.78 eV/atom. The density of electronic states at the Fermi energy level for all α-L5-7a and β-L5-7a layers of graphyne is different from zero, so the new graphyne polymorphs should have metallic properties.

Using the density functional theory method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory, the formation of hydrogen-bonded complexes of L-cysteine with selenious and selenic acids has been studied. In both cases of selenium-containing acids, the complexes occur preferably by cysteine carboxylic group, therewith the enthalpy of formation values consist from –19 to –21 kcal/mol, and free energy from –6 to –9 kcal/mol. Probably, the initial act of interaction in the system hydroxyl-containing selenium compound - a-amino acid, proceeding with mutual orientation of the reactants molecules and intermolecular hydrogen bonds formation, serves as a prerequisite for the thiol group capability of participating in the subsequent stages (including more completed transformations) of biologically important reactions.

In this study, poly(oxyethyl propiolate)s (POP)s featuring various oxyethylene derivatives are synthesized using a [Rh(norbornadiene)Cl]2 catalyst. In particular, POPs featuring the normal oxyethylene chain in the side-chain exhibit excellent yields and high molecular weights in methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide at 40 °C, compared with poly(n-alkyl propiolate)s (PnAP)s. The high reactivity of the oxyethyl propiolate (OP) monomers is clarified by considering the time dependences of the polymerization yields of OPs and alkyl propiolates (Aps). Furthermore, the monomer structure and intermediate conformation of the Rh complex are optimized using Density Function theory (DFT) methods (B3LYP/6-31G** and B3LYP/LANL2DZ) and a polymerization mechanism is proposed.
