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.

Planar Geometries

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.

We report routes towards synthesis of novel [Formula: see text]-conjugated freebase cobalt, copper, gallium and manganese meso-alkynylcorroles. UV-vis spectra show that extensive peak broadening, red shifts, and changes in the oscillator strength of absorptions increase with the extension of [Formula: see text]-conjugation. Using density functional theory (DFT), we have carried out a first theoretical study of the electronic structure of these metallocorroles. Decreased energy gaps of about 0.3–0.4 eV between the HOMO and LUMO orbitals compared to the corresponding copper, gallium and manganese meso-5,10,15 triphenylcorrole are observed. In all cases, the HOMO energies are nearly unperturbed as the [Formula: see text]-conjugation is expanded. The contraction of the HOMO–LUMO energy gaps is attributed to the lowered LUMO energies.

Good Agreement

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.

The Density Functional Theory

We have studied the structures and electronic properties of PdCn (n=2-12) using the density functional theory in this paper. Though calculating, we found that the linear isomers are most stable for PdCn(n=2-9) clusters. N=10 is turning point, and the bicyclical structure is most stable for PdC10 cluster. Cyclic structures have the lowest energy for PdC11 and PdC12 clusters.
