A novel byphenyl hydrazone ligand developed as a chemosensor for the detection of Cu2+ was studied using a theoretical analysis based on the density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT). The geometries of the ligand (L) and the Cu2+-ligand complex were optimized at the CAM-B3LYP/631+G(d,p) level of theory in dimethyl sulfoxide, using the conductor-like polarizable continuum model. The adsorption spectra of these molecular systems were analyzed and compared with the experimental data. Theoretical study of the structural, electronics and optical properties allowed us to understand the chemical changes that the ligand undergoes in the complexation process with the Cu+2 ion.

Polarizable Continuum

In the current work we have investigated the ability of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) to predict the absorption spectra of a series of oxazine dyes and the effect of solvent on the accuracy of these predictions. Based on the results of this study, it is clear that for the series of oxazine dyes an accurate prediction of the excitation energy requires the inclusion of solvent. Implicit solvent included via a polarizable continuum approach was found to be sufficient in reproducing the excitation energies accurately in the majority of cases. Moreover, we found that the SMD solvent model, which is dependent on the full electron density of the solute without partitioning into partial charges, gave more reliable results for our systems relative to the conductor-like polarizable continuum model (CPCM), as implemented in Gaussian 09. In all cases the inclusion of solvent reduces the error in the predicted excitation energy to <0.3 eV and in the majority of cases to <0.1 eV.

The trimethylamine-catalyzed Baylis–Hillman reaction of formaldehyde and vinylaldehyde has been studied with the density functional theory (DFT) method of B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p). In the gas phase, the reaction involves an amine–formaldehyde–vinylaldehyde trimolecular addition transition structure followed by rate-determining intramolecular 1,3-hydrogen shift. When a bulk solvent effect of water was considered with conductor-like polarizable continuum model (CPCM), the reaction was found to follow the sequence of Michael-addition of amine to vinylaldehyde (step 1), addition of formaldehyde (step 2), and 1,3-hydrogen shift (step 3), with the 1,3-hydrogen shift as rate-determining. The overall reaction barrier is significantly reduced. When a molecule of water is involved in the reaction, the 1,3-hydrogen shift is significantly promoted so that the rate-determining step becomes the C–C bond formation. The calculated overall reaction barrier is in agreement with experimental observations.

Abstract Conformation analysis of dehydroascorbic acid and its bicyclic form was performed using the density functional theory. For the energetically preferred conformations, ionization potentials (IP) and bond dissociation enthalpies (BDE) were calculated using the B3LYP functional and 6-311++G** basis set. The effects of aqueous solution were estimated using the solvation model based on density (SMD) and the polarizable continuum model (IEF-PCM). The obtained results were compared with available experimental data for reference L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Our calculations indicate that the investigated bicyclic metabolic product of vitamin C can also exhibit limited radical scavenging ability due to the thermodynamically preferred dissociation of tertiary —CH bonds.

Solvent Environment

In this paper, we have performed the optimized structures of the red emitting material, 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-[p-(dimethyl amino) styryl]-4H-pyran (DCM), with different polarity solvent environments by using the density functional theory (DFT) method, B3LYP/6-31G*. The time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) and the polarizable continuum model (PCM) have been used to obtain the optical properties in the solvent environment. It has been observed that when the solvent polarity increases, the DCM molecule exhibits the red shift in the maximum absorption wavelength [Formula: see text] and enhances the oscillator strength (f). The solvent polarity also enhances the electron transfer ability from the electron-donating dimethylamine group (-N(CH3)2) to the electron-withdrawing =C(CN)2 group. The S 0 → S 1 transition of DCM is found to be π–π*. The maximum absorption wavelengths [Formula: see text] of different solvent environments are found to be consistent with the reported experimental results.

A mechanism of the interaction of benzoylacetylene with dithio- and diselenomalonamides has been proposed on the basis of quantum-chemical calculations in the framework of the density functional theory using the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) basis set taking into account solvent effects (AcOH) within the polarizable continuum model, PCM, with inclusion of the HCl molecule in the calculated space. It is shown that the reaction involves two stages to afford heterocyclic compounds of the dithiine and diselenine type

Nmr Properties

The isotopically enriched cyanide anion, (13C≡15N)−, has a great potential as the NMR probe of non-covalent interactions. However, hydrogen cyanide is highly toxic and can decompose explosively. It is therefore desirable to be able to theoretically estimate any valuable results of certain experiments in advance in order to carry out experimental studies only for the most suitable molecular systems. We report the effect of hydrogen bonding on NMR properties of 15N≡13CH···X and 13C≡15NH···X hydrogen bonding complexes in solution, where X = 19F, 15N, and O=31P, calculated at the ωB97XD/def2tzvp and the polarizable continuum model (PCM) approximations. In many cases, the isotropic 13C and 15N chemical shieldings of the cyanide anion are not the most informative NMR properties of such complexes. Instead, the anisotropy of these chemical shieldings and the values of scalar coupling constants, including those across hydrogen bonds, can be used to characterize the geometry of such complexes in solids and solutions. 1J(15N13C) strongly correlates with the length of the N≡C bond.

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.
