The molecular structures and electronic properties of 7,8-Dichloro-4-Oxo-4H-Chromene-3-Carbaldehyde, C10H4Cl2O3 have been studied using Density Functional Theory (DFT) method. The calculation of geometry optimization was conducted to find the local energy minimum of C10H4Cl2O3 molecular system. The equilibrium geometries were used to determine the HOMO-LUMO gaps, Mulliken atomic charges, and other electronic structures of C10H4Cl2O3. The significant findings from DFT/B3LYP functional within the basis sets of 6-31G**, 6-31++G**, 6-311G**, and 6-311++G** show that the optimized geometries of C10H4Cl2O3 are in good agreement with that of measurement data. To further investigate this, using a variety of basis sets (3-21G, 6-31G, 6-31++G, 6-31G**, 6-31++G**, 6-311G, 6-311++G, 6-311G**, and 6-311++G**), it is found that the calculated total energy values of C10H4Cl2O3 are close to each other. Similarly, the computed HOMO-LUMO energy gaps obtained are also close to each other. Using the scheme of Mulliken Population Analysis (MPA), the trend of findings are the same for both cases of B3LYP/6-31G and B3LYP/6-31G** level of calculations. For the method of B3LYP/6-31G, it is clearly found that C4 and C6 have the highest positively charge, with the corresponding values about +0.284 and +0.238, respectively. On the other hand, the charge values of +0.157 and +0.206 are found on Cl1 and Cl2 atoms. The atoms of O1, O2, and O3 have the negatively charges, with the values of about 0.398, -0.512, and -0.424, respectively. Similarly, in the case of DFT/B3LYP/6-31G** level of theory, the computed charge values of C2 and C4 are about +0.311 and +0.393, respectively. Furthermore, the Cl1 and Cl2 atoms have the positively charge values of about +0.043 and +0.070, whereas for the O1, O2, and O3 atoms, the charges values obtained are about -0.421, -0.467, and -0.498, respectively.

In this paper, a first principle Density Functional Theory (DFT) method was conducted to study the geometric and electronic structures of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-{[5-(4-chlorophenyl) -1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl] sulfanyl} ethanone, C16H10Cl2N2O2S. Using B3LYP level of theory with four basis sets of 6-31G**, 6-31++G**, 6-311G**, and 6-311++G**, the equilibrium structure of the title molecule was used to determine the total energies, Frontier molecular orbital’s energies, Mulliken atomic charges, and others. The computed findings present that four total energies obtained are close to each other, with the corresponding values of-59716.06 eV, -59709.42 eV, -59708.56 eV, and-59716.51 eV, respectively for B3LYP/6-31G**, B3LYP/6-31++G**, B3LYP/6-311G**, and B3LYP/6-311++G** methods. The calculated HOMO-LUMO energy gaps were predicted in the range of 4.001 eV - 4.089 eV. In this study, the atomic charge values of molecular system were also determined using Mulliken Population Analysis (MPA) approach. For DFT/B3LYP/6-311G** level of calculation, the computed results show that the atom of C8 accommodates the highest negative charge in the title molecular system. All the oxygen, nitrogen, and chloride atoms are having negative charges, whereas all the hydrogen atoms are having positive charges. In addition, the dipole moment value was also determined to be 1.4758 Debye by employing DFT/B3LYP/6-311G** level of theory.

Geometrical and electronic properties of Ge[Formula: see text]V[Formula: see text] clusters containing 1–9 Ge atoms and one V atom are calculated by using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP level and the LanL2DZ basis sets. The growth pattern behavior, natural population analysis, relative stability, electronic property and magnetism of these clusters are discussed in detail. The calculation results of the geometrical show that the relative stable structures of Ge[Formula: see text]V[Formula: see text] clusters adopt 3D structures from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text]. The results of natural population analysis show that electrons transfer from the Ge atoms to the V atoms when [Formula: see text] while the electrons transfer from the V atoms to the Ge atoms when [Formula: see text]. The Ge[Formula: see text]V[Formula: see text] clusters possess higher stability and the GeV[Formula: see text], Ge3V[Formula: see text], Ge5V[Formula: see text], Ge7V[Formula: see text], and Ge9V[Formula: see text] have larger HOMO–LUMO gaps. Furthermore, the VIPs of Ge[Formula: see text]V clusters show a reverse trend in contrast to the AIPs.


Fourier Transfer infrared and Raman spectra in the range of 4000-400 cm-1 and 3500-50 cm-1 were recorded to study the vibrational spectra of 5-chloro-2-hydroxyacetophenone (CHAP). Using density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) with 6-31+G(d,p) and 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets the various geometrical parameters such as Raman activities, infrared intensities and optimum frequencies were calculated. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap has been computed which confirms the charge transfer of the molecular system. Mulliken’s atomic charges associated with each atom and thermodynamic parameters have also been reported with the same level of DFT.

Ab initio density functional calculations were performed on a toroidal carbon C120 nanostructure with a single beryllium atom bonded to its outer surface. These calculations are based on DFT with the generalized gradient approximation PW91 (Perdew and Wang) as implemented in the Materials Studio v.4.3 code. The Dmol3 module was used to calculate, among others, total energy, charge density, HOMO-LUMO and Mulliken population analysis. On the basis of these results, the beryllium-coated toroidal carbon C120 nanostructure appears to be a good candidate for H2 storage with moderate adsorption energy.

The structural, electronic, and adsorption properties of chlorine on pristine, tin-, aluminum-, and fluorine-substituted In2O3 nanostructures are successfully optimized and computed using density functional theory along with the B2LYP/LanL2DZ basis set. The electronic properties of pristine, tin-, aluminum-, and fluorine-substituted In2O3 nanostructures are discussed in terms of ionization potential, HOMO–LUMO gap, and electron affinity. The dipole moment and point symmetry group of In2O3 nanostructures are also reported. The structural stability of pristine, tin-, aluminum-, and fluorine-substituted In2O3 nanostructures are investigated in terms of formation energy. The adsorption properties of chlorine on In2O3 are studied and the most appropriate adsorption sites of Cl2 on In2O3 nanostructures are reported. The adsorption properties of hydrogen on In2O3 nanostructures are also investigated and inferred that In2O3 exhibits good sensing characteristics towards hydrogen. The adsorbed energy, HOMO–LUMO gap, Mulliken population analysis, and average energy gap variation are used to identify the prominent adsorption site of Cl2 on In2O3 material. The substitution of fluorine in In2O3 nanostructures enhances the Cl2 adsorption properties in the mixed gas atmosphere.

Due to the rigid structure of 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA), its 31P chemical shift solely depends on non-covalent interactions in which the molecule is involved. The maximum range of change caused by the most common of these, hydrogen bonding, is only 6 ppm, because the active site is one of the PTA nitrogen atoms. In contrast, when the PTA phosphorus atom is coordinated to a metal, the range of change exceeds 100 ppm. This feature can be used to support or reject specific structural models of organometallic transition metal complexes in solution by comparing the experimental and Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculated values of this 31P chemical shift. This approach has been tested on a variety of the metals of groups 8–12 and molecular structures. General recommendations for appropriate basis sets are reported.

In this work, the interaction of C 20 with N 2 X 2 ( X = H , F , Cl , Br , Me ) molecules has been explored using the B3LYP, M062x methods and 6-311G(d,p) and 6-311+G(d,p) basis sets. The interaction energies (IEs) obtained with standard method were corrected by basis set superposition error (BSSE) during the geometry optimization for all molecules at the same levels of theory. It was found C 20… N 2 H 2 interaction is stronger than the interaction of other N 2 X 2 ( X = F , Cl , Br , Me ) with C 20. Highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO, respectively) levels are illustrated by density of states spectra (DOS). The nucleus-independent chemical shifts (NICSs) confirm that C 20… N 2 X 2 molecules exhibit aromatic characteristics. Geometries obtained from DFT calculations were used to perform NBO analysis. Also, 14 N NQR parameters of the C 20… N 2 X 2 molecules are predicted.

A scientific and rigorous study on the adsorption behavior and molecular mechanism of collector sodium oleate (NaOL) on a Ca2+-activated hydroxylated α-quartz surface was performed through experiments and density functional theory (DFT) simulations. The rarely reported hydroxylation behaviors of water molecules on the α-quartz (101) surface were first innovatively and systematically studied by DFT calculations. Both experimental and computational results consistently demonstrated that the adsorbed calcium species onto the hydroxylated structure can significantly enhance the adsorption of oleate ions, resulting in a higher quartz recovery. The calculated adsorption energies confirmed that the adsorbed hydrated Ca2+ in the form of Ca(H2O)3(OH)+ can greatly promote the adsorption of OL− on hydroxylated quartz (101). In addition, Mulliken population analysis together with electron density difference analysis intuitively illustrated the process of electron transfer and the Ca-bridge phenomenon between the hydroxylated surface and OL− ions. This work may offer new insights into the interaction mechanisms existing among oxidized minerals, aqueous medium, and flotation reagents.

To understand sulfide inclusions in the steel industry, the structures, stabilities, electronic and magnetic properties of the Mn[Formula: see text]S and Mn[Formula: see text]S2 (n=1–6) clusters are investigated by using first-principles. The results show that the S atoms prefer to occupy the outside surface center of the Mn[Formula: see text] (n = 3–6) clusters. Chiral isomers are occurred to the Mn5S2 isomers. The Mn2S, Mn2S2 clusters are more stable than their neighbors. However, the MnS, S2, and Mn5I2 clusters possess higher dynamic stability than their neighbors by the HOMO–LUMO gaps. The Mn[Formula: see text]S and Mn[Formula: see text]S2 (n = 1–6) clusters prefer to spontaneous generation by Gibbs free energy. A few 4s orbital electrons of Mn atoms transferred to the S atoms by Mülliken population analysis. For the other Mn[Formula: see text]S (n = 1–6) clusters, the spin density (17.256) of the ground-state Mn6S clusters is the largest. For the Mn[Formula: see text]S2 (n = 1–6) clusters, the total spin (9.604) of the ground-state Mn2S2 cluster is the largest.
