Density-functional theory has been used to calculate the energetically global-minimum geometries and electronic states of AgnH2S (n=2, 4, 6) clusters. The lowest-energy structures of Ag2, Ag4, Ag6, Ag2H2S, Ag4H2S and Ag6H2S clusters were obtained, respectively. The calculation results show that the lowest-energy structures of Ag2, Ag4and Ag6clusters are planar geometries. The binding energies of Agn(n=2, 4, 6) clusters are gradually increasing in our calculations. Compare the infrared spectrum peaks of Ag4cluster with that of Ag6cluster, which show that the peaks shift to shortwave. After adsorption, we found that the peaks shift to shortwave by comparison.

All electronic structures and infrared adsorption spectra of AgnH2S (n=3, 5) clusters have been performed by using density functional theory. We obtain the lowest-energy structures of Ag3, Ag5, Ag3H2S and Ag5H2S clusters. The calculation results show that the lowest-energy structures of Ag3 and Ag5 clusters are planar geometries. The lowest-energy structures of Ag3H2S and Ag5H2S can be obtained by adsorbs immediately H2S on Ag3 and Ag5 clusters. The peak of infrared spectrum is 120cm-1 for Ag3 cluster, which is smaller than that of Ag5 cluster (180 cm-1). The peak of infrared spectrum is 350cm-1 for Ag3H2S cluster, which is larger than that of Ag5H2S cluster (290 cm-1). The comparison illustrates that adsorption H2S molecule make the peak of infrared spectrum shifting to shortwave.

The global-minimum geometries and electronic states of AgnH2S (n=1-5) clusters have been calculated using density-functional theory. Our calculations predicate that the stable geometries of AgnH2S clusters can be got by directly adding the H2S molecule on different site of Agn clusters, Agn (n=1-5) clusters would like to bond with sulfur atom and the H2S molecule is partial to hold the top location and single fold coordination site in the clusters. After adsorption, the structures of Agn clusters and H2S molecule keep the original structures and are only distorted slightly. The averaged binding energy reveals that adsorption of H2S molecule can strengthen the stabilities of AgnH2S clusters. The second difference in energy and the energy gaps between the HOMO and LUMO of Agn and AgnH2S have been studied.

Although anisyl units are basically poor ligands for metal ions, the rigid placements of their oxygens during synthesis rather than during complexation are undoubtedly responsible for the enhanced binding and selectivity of the spherand. We used standard B3LYP/6-31G** (5d) density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the complexation between spherands containing five anisyl groups, with CH2–O–CH2 (2) and CH2–S–CH2 (3) units in an 18-membered macrocyclic ring, and the cationic guests (Li+, Na+, and K+). Our geometric structure results for spherands 1, 2, and 3 are in good agreement with the previously reported X-ray diffraction data. The absolute values of the binding energy of all the spherands are inversely proportional to the ionic radius of the guests. The results, taken as a whole, show that replacement of one anisyl group by CH2–O–CH2 (2) and CH2–S–CH2 (3) makes the cavity bigger and less preorganized. In addition, both the binding and specificity decrease for small ions. The spherands 2 and 3 appear beautifully preorganized to bind all guests, so it is not surprising that their binding energies are close to the parent spherand 1. Interestingly, there is a clear linear relation between the radius of the cavity and the binding energy (R2 = 0.999).Key words: spherands, preorganization, density functional theory, binding energy, cavity size.

Structures, binding energies, magnetic and electronic properties endohedrally doped C 20 fullerenes by metallic atoms ( Fe , Co , Ti and V ) have been obtained by pseudopotential density functional theory. All M @ C 20, except Co @ C 20, are more stable than the undoped C 20 cage. The magnetic moment values are 1 and 2μB. These values and semiconductor behavior give to these compounds interesting feature in several technological applications. Titanium doped C 20 has a same magnetic moment than the isolated Ti atom. Hybridization process in the Co doped C 20 fullerene is most strong than in other doped cages. Electrical and magnetic dipoles calculated in the iron doped C 20 are very strong compared with other clusters.

Covalent functionalization of Ni2P nanocrystals was demonstrated using aryl-diazonium salts. Spontaneous adsorption of aryl functional groups was observed, with surface coverages ranging from 20-96% depending on the native reactivity of the salt as determined by the aryl substitution pattern. Increased coverage was possible for low reactivity species using a sacrificial reductant. Functionalization was confirmed using thermogravimetric analysis, FTIR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The structure and energetics of this nanocrystal electrocatalyst system, as a function of ligand coverage, was explored with density functional theory calculations. The Hammett parameter of the surface functional group was found to linearly correlate with the change in Ni and P core-electron binding energies and the nanocrystal’s experimentally and computationally determined work-function. The electrocatalytic activity and stability of the functionalized nanocrystals for hydrogen evolution were also improved when compared to the unfunctionalized material, but a simple trend based on electrostatics was not evident. We used density functional theory to understand this discrepancy and found that H adsorption energies on the covalently functionalized Ni2P also do not follow the electrostatic trend and are predictive descriptors of the experimental results.

Using the quantum chemical density functional theory method in the Gaussian03W package, the spatial configuration of this compound is optimized by using B3LYP/6-31G(d) as the base group, in which the data of bond length, bond angle and spatial dihedral angle of the compound molecule are obtained. Based on the optimized stable structure, the infrared vibration frequency of the molecule is calculated, and the infrared spectrum is drawn. There is no imaginary frequency in the calculation results of frequency value, which indicates that the optimized configuration of 9-methacryloyl carbazole molecule is reasonable, and the peak position of infrared spectrum is assigned.
