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.

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. Various quantum chemical and QSAR data are obtained and discussed.

Interaction of lithium atom with TEX molecule which is a high density energetic material is considered within the restrictions of density functional theory at the level of UB3LYP/6-31++G(d,p). The results indicate that the lithium atom transfers an electron to TEX causing the rupture of one of C-N bonds of the structure. Some geometrical and quantum chemical data have been collected and discussed. A plausible mechanism has been suggested for the destructive reduction of TEX molecule.

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.

Diaminodinitroethylene (DADNE) has three isomers including the well known geminal isomer, FOX-7. In the present study, the homolytic cleavage of one of the C-NO2 bonds of these isomers has been considered within the constraints of density functional theory at the level of UB3LYP/6-311++G(d,p). Transition states for that type of bond rupture are obtained. Various quantum chemical properties of the parent compounds and the decomposed systems are obtained, compared and discussed. Also the activation energies are calculated. The transition state originating from cis DADNE and the one from the geminal DADNE are found to be the most and least stable ones, respectively among the all.

Electron Spectra

After geometry optimization, the electron spectra of indole and four azaindoles are calculated by density functional theory. Available experimental photoemission and excitation data for indole and 7-azaindole are used to compare with the theoretical values. The results for the other azaindoles are presented as predictions to help the interpretation of experimental spectra when they become available.

AbstractIn this study, based on density functional theory, we propose a new branch of pseudo-fullerenes which contain triple bonds with sp hybridization. We call these new nanostructures fullerynes, according to IUPAC. We present four samples with the chemical formula of C4nHn, and the structures derived from fulleranes. We compare the structural and electronic properties of these structures with those of two common fullerenes and fulleranes systems. The calculated electron affinities of the sampled fullerynes are negative, and much smaller than those of fullerenes, so they should be chemically more stable than fullerenes. Although fulleranes also exhibit higher chemical stability than fullerynes, but pentagon or hexagon of the fullerane structures cannot pass ions and molecules. Applications of fullerynes can be included in the storage of ions and gases at the nanoscale. On the other hand, they can also be used as cathode/anode electrodes in lithium-ion batteries.
