This study is composed of X-ray diffraction and Density Functional Theory (DFT) based molecular structural analyses of 2-phenyl-4-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (2PPT). Crystal data for C11H9N3O: Monoclinic, space group P21/c (no. 14), a = 7.8975(2) Å, b = 11.6546(4) Å, c = 11.0648(3) Å, β = 105.212(2)°, V = 982.74(5) Å3, Z = 4, T = 296.15 K, μ(MoKα) = 0.091 mm-1, Dcalc = 1.346 g/cm3, 13460 reflections measured (5.174° ≤ 2Θ ≤ 64.72°), 3477 unique (Rint = 0.0314, Rsigma = 0.0298) which were used in all calculations. The final R1 was 0.0470 (I > 2σ(I)) and wR2 was 0.1368 (all data). The experimentally determined data was supported by theoretically optimized calculations processed with the help of Hartree-Fock (HF) technique and Density Functional Theory with the 6-311G(d,p) basis set in the ground state. Geometrical parameters (Bond lengths and angles) as well as spectroscopic (FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR) properties of 2PPT molecule has been optimized theoretically and compared with the experimentally obtained results. Hirshfeld surface analysis with 2D fingerprinting plots was used to figure out the possible and most significant intermolecular interactions. The electronic characterizations such as molecular electrostatic potential map (MEP) and Frontier molecular orbital (FMO) energies have been studied by DFT/B3LYP approach. The MEP imparted the detailed information regarding electronegative and electropositive regions across the molecule. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap as high as 5.3601 eV was found to be responsible for the high kinetic stability of the 2PPT.

In this work, the sensing mechanism of a novel anion receptor, 2-amino-((E)-(4-cyanobenzalidine) amino) maleonitrile reported by Sankar et al. (Analyst 138:4760-4763, 2013) was investigated theoretically with the help of density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). From the frontier molecular orbital analysis, it is reasonable to support the proposed charge transfer (ICT) enhancement in the receptor molecule in the presence of F−. A significant reduction in the energy gap (ΔE) from 4.014 eV to 2.342eV between highest occupied and lowest unoccupied energy levels was revealed, leading to the strong redshift of its absorption characteristics. Moreover, 1H NMR was also calculated to further understand the mechanistic insights by using the gauge independent atomic orbital (GIAO) method with B3LYP methods and the 6-311++G (d,p) basis set. The spectra were simulated, and the chemical shifts linked to TMS were compared with experimental. Besides, Intrinsic Reaction Coordinates (IRC) were also calculated to understand the sensing mechanism.

In this study, 4-[(4-methyl-5-phenyl-4<em>H</em>-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)sulfanyl]benzene-1,2-dicarbonitrile was synthesized and its molecular structure was characterized by means of FT-IR and X-ray diffraction methods. The crystal is monoclinic and belongs to the P21/n space group. There are three weak intermolecular C-H…N type hydrogen bonds in the molecular structure. The geometrical parameters, vibration frequencies, HOMO–LUMO energies, and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) map of the compound (3) in ground state were calculated by using density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) with the 6-311G(d) basis set. Calculated geometrical parameters were compared with X-ray diffraction geometric parameters. On the other hand, theoretical and experimental FT-IR results were also compared.

We report here the synthesis of Z-3-(2-Ethoxyphenyl)-2-(2-Ethoxyphenyl)-1,3-Thiazolidin-4-one compound. The crystal structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P21/n and cell parameters: a = 9.4094(10), b = 9.3066(10), c = 20.960(2) Å, β=99.0375(10)0, V = 1812.7(3)Å3 and Z = 4. The structure has been refined to a final R = 0.05 for 2083 observed reflections. The refined structure was found to be significantly non planar. The molecule exhibits intermolecular hydrogen bond of type C–H...O, C–H...N and C–H...S. Ab initio calculations were also performed at Hartree–Fock and density functional theory levels. The full HF and DFT geometry optimization was carried out using 6-31G(d,p) basis set. The observed molecular structure is compared with that calculated by both HF and density functional theory methods. The optimized geometry of the title compound was found to be consistent structure determined by X-ray diffraction.

<p>Two new one-dimensional coordination polymers of barium (II) and strontium (II)-acesulfamato complexes such as [Ba(C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>4</sub>NO<sub>4</sub>S)<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)]<em><sub>n</sub></em> (1) and [Sr(C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>4</sub>NO<sub>4</sub>S)<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)]<em><sub>n</sub></em> (2) have been synthesized and their molecular structures were identified by X-ray diffraction technique. Both barium (II) and strontium (II) complexes crystallize in the centrosymmetric monoclinic space group P12<sub>1</sub>/c1 and barium (II) and strontium (II) ions, which are surrounded by O- and N-atoms, have the coordination number of nine. Each complex forms a structure like a polymer extending parallel to the <em>a</em>-axis. The molecular structures of those complexes were stabilized by O―H···O and C―H···O hydrogen bonds.</p>Besides identifying their crystallographic structures, the geometric parameters were also calculated using density functional theory (B3LYP) with 6-31G base sets for the asymmetric units of the complexes. The calculated geometrical parameters were also compared to the geometric parameters of X-ray diffraction technique. Furthermore, molecular electrostatic potential maps were constructed and frontier molecular orbital calculations were done for the synthesized complexes. The results of the experimental and theoretical IR studies were also compared.

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.

Pyrene (C16H10) is an organic semiconductor which has wide applications in the field of organic electronics suitable for the development of organic light emitting diodes (OLED) and organic photovoltaic cells (OPV). In this work, Density Functional Theory (DFT) using Becke’s three and Lee Yang Parr (B3LYP) functional with basis set 6-311++G(d, p) implemented in Gaussian 03 package was  used to compute total energy, bond parameters, HOMO-LUMO energy gap, electron affinity, ionization potential, chemical reactivity descriptors, dipole moment, isotropic polarizability (α), anisotropy of polarizability ( Δ∝) total first order hyper-polarizability () and second order hyperpolarizability (). The molecules used are pyrene, 1-chloropyrene and 4-chloropyrene  in gas phase and in five different solvents: benzene, chloroform, acetone, DMSO and water. The results obtained show that solvents and chlorination actually influenced the properties of the molecules. The isolated pyrene in acetone has the largest value of HOMO-LUMO energy gap of and is a bit closer to a previously reported experimental value of  and hence is the most stable. Thus, the pyrene molecule has more kinetic stability and can be described as low reactive molecule. The calculated dipole moments are in the order of 4-chloropyrene (1.7645 D) < 1-chloropyrene (1.9663 D) in gas phase. The anisotropy of polarizability ( for pyrene and its derivatives were found to increase with increasing polarity of the solvents.  In a nutshell, the molecules will be promising for organic optoelectronic devices based on their computed properties as reported by this work.

Synthetic chalcomenite-type cupric selenite CuSeO3∙2H2O has been studied at room temperature under compression up to pressures of 8 GPa by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and density-functional theory. According to X-ray diffraction, the orthorhombic phase undergoes an isostructural phase transition at 4.0(5) GPa with the thermodynamic character being first-order. This conclusion is supported by Raman spectroscopy studies that have detected the phase transition at 4.5(2) GPa and by the first-principles computing simulations. The structure solution at different pressures has provided information on the change with pressure of unit–cell parameters as well as on the bond and polyhedral compressibility. A Birch–Murnaghan equation of state has been fitted to the unit–cell volume data. We found that chalcomenite is highly compressible with a bulk modulus of 42–49 GPa. The possible mechanism driving changes in the crystal structure is discussed, being the behavior of CuSeO3∙2H2O mainly dominated by the large compressibility of the coordination polyhedron of Cu. On top of that, an assignation of Raman modes is proposed based upon density-functional theory and the pressure dependence of Raman modes discussed. Finally, the pressure dependence of phonon frequencies experimentally determined is also reported.
