In this paper, we theoretically studied the geometries, stabilities, electronic and thermodynamic properties of bridged bithiophene S-oxide (BTO-X) derivates (with X = BH2, SiH2, S, S=O, and O) by using semi-empirical methods, ab-initio, and Density functional theory. The geometries and thermodynamic parameters calculated by PM3 were in good agreement with that of B3LYP/6-31G(d). The bandgap calculated by B3LYP/6-31G(d) ranged from 3.94eV (BTO-O)-3.16eV (BTO-BH2). The absorption λmax calculated suing B3LYP/6-31G(d) shifted to longer wavelength with X=BH2, SiH2, and S=O due to enhancement of π-conjugated system whereas, BTO-S and BTO-O shifted to shorter wavelengths as compared to dimmer thiophene S-oxide (2TO).

Vibrational studies of amino acids experimentally and theoretically have been performed. The Semi-empirical methods optimization by PM6 and RM1 on the l- and d-amino acids (alanine, phenylalanine, aspartic and glutamic acid), showed no difference in energy between l-and d-isomers. The vibrational frequencies were calculated by semi-emprical methods (PM6 and RM1) and Ab Initio methods (B3LYP/6-31+G(d) and were scaled down by factors of 0.925 (RM1), 1.09 (PM6) and 0.89 (B3LYP/6-31+G(d)). The calculated and experimental vibrational frequencies have shown good general agreement.

Semi-empirical (SE) methods are derived from Hartree–Fock (HF) or Density Functional Theory (DFT) by neglect and approximation of electronic integrals.

In this work, a review is presented concerning the most modern theoretical methods aimed at investigation of various nanostructures properties. The basic concepts of ab initio methods, density functional, semi-empirical and empirical methods are considered. The applicability boundaries of calculation schemes utilized in the aforementioned methods are denoted.

Quantum chemical viz. ab initio or semi-empirical based simulation studies are now prevailing among workers / scientists pursuing their studies in theoretical chemistry. These studies provide better insight for the compounds so far as the studies of their structural orother parameters are concern. Studies involving the packages developed on the basis of ab-initio or semi-empirical methods are proven to be more effective and as a better tool because of number of their advantages. The present communication includes the studies on synthesis or procurement along with the simulation of spectra viz. I.R. of some heterocyclic organic compounds.
