2,4,6-trinitrotoluene, known as TNT is a widely used high explosive material. Its disastrous effects to health are reported but how it executes those effects biochemically has been scarcely studied. On the other hand, dopamine is an important endogenous catecholamine. The present study deals with interaction of TNT and dopamine within the restrictions of density functional theory at the level of B3LYP/6-31+G(d). Some structural, quantum chemical and spectral properties are obtained for TNT + dopamine composite. They may form two electronically stable π-π complex, TNT acting as π-acceptor and dopamine is the donor. Thermo chemical calculations indicate that formation of the complexes are unfavorable at the standard conditions but the endo-form of the complex is less unfavorable compared to the exo-form.

The Impact

The present study considers some trinitroazetidine isomers within the realm of density functional theory (B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p)). One of the isomers considered is 1,3,3-trinitroazetidine (TNAZ) which is the well known insensitive high energy explosive material. Various structural, energetic, quantum chemical and spectral properties of the isomers have been harvested and discussed. Some of the isomers have nitramine bonds and some possess only C-NO2 bonds. The results indicate that the nitramine moiety somewhat destabilizes the structure electronically but increases the impact insensitivity.

The present treatment deals with an unusual composite of TNAZ that is TNAZ+ nSe(n:1,2) within the constraints of density functional theory at the level of UB3LYP/6-31++G(d,p). TNAZ is an insensitive high explosive material. Since, selenium atom in its ground state has two unpaired electrons, the composites are considered in their singlet, triplet and quintet states. Selenium and TNAZ interact at different extents and the systems are electronically stable but TNAZ+2Se (singlet) structurally decomposes by the elongation of one of the geminally substituted nitro groups. Modeling studies indicate that the N-O bond elongation in the composite mentioned occurs only if azetidine ring is present with or without the nitramine bond. For the composites various structural, electronic and quantum chemical data have been harvested and discussed.

FOX-7 as an energetic material is getting more and more popular as the constituents of various ammunitions. On the other hand, boronic species attract attention as fuels in rocket engineering. The present study, within the constraints of density functional theory, considers some composites of them, that is FOX-7+B2H6, FOX-7+2BH3 and FOX-7+BH3. The calculations at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level indicate that all the components are structurally stable in the composites although they interact with each other electronically.

1,3,5-Triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene, known as TATB, is an insensitive energetic material. On the other hand, certain metals like Al, Mg etc., are often involved in formulation of certain ammunition to increase the heat output of the composite. In the present study, the interaction of TATB and magnesium is considered in TATB+Mg and TATB+2Mg composites within the constraints of density functional theory at the level of B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p). The magnesium component disturbs TATB molecule mainly conformationally without causing any bond rupture. The composite formation is favorable, exothermic and they are electronically stable. As the magnesium content increases, the composites become more sensitive to impulse stimulus. Certain physicochemical, quantum chemical and spectral data are collected and discussed.

The present study considers a series of diazodinitrophenol isomers within the constraints of density functional theory at the level of B3LYP/311++G(d,p). One of the isomers in the series is known as DDNP which is a primary explosive material. Presently various dinitro substituted benzoxadiazol (bicyclic) and 2-diazo-1-oxide (azide) isomers analogous to DDNP have been focus of investigation. In all the cases the azide isomers have been found to be more stable electronically than the bicyclic counterparts. Various properties of them including quantum chemical ones are harvested, compared and discussed. Also NICS(0) values are obtained for the ring(s) and the local aromaticity values are discussed.

Within the limitations of density functional theory, the π-π type interaction between melatonin (a nocturnal hormone) and FOX-7 (an insensitive explosive) is investigated. Two composite structures have been considered in which 6- and 5-membered aromatic rings of melatonin are π-π linked to FOX-7 molecule. The structure optimization has been achieved at the level of B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p). The composite formed through the 5 membered ring of melatonin is found more stable than the composite involving 6 membered ring of melatonin and both of them are more stable than the composite having no π-π type interaction. Various structural, energetic, quantum chemical and spectral properties of the composites have been reported and discussed.

Fuscin, a natural product having various functionalities, may exhibit 1,3- and 1,5-proton tautomerism, as well as valence tautomerism via its 1,5-proton tautomer. All those possible forms are investigated within the realm of density functional theory with the constraints of B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level. NICS(0) calculation has been performed for the valence tautomer which possesses a benzenoid ring. The tautomers are found to be stable structures but the valence tautomer is the least likely one. Some QSAR, quantum chemical and spectral properties are obtained and discussed.
