We report reactivity of silicon doped single walled carbon nanotube (Si-CNT) towards the small atmospheric gas molecules O2, CO2, SO2and NO2using density functional theory based on the numerical basis set method. The reactivity of these molecules is explained on the basis of electronic properties such as binding energy, charge density, charge transfer and density of states. The large change in binding energy and formation of sigma (σ) bonds between silicon and oxygen atoms shows the strong chemisorption of the molecules on Si-CNT. Further, the density of states analysis clearly illustrate the reduction in the band gap and creation of extra state near the Fermi level, which acts as a catalytic center for adsorption of the molecules. The Mulliken population analysis indicates the charge transfer from Si-CNT to the molecules due to their more electronegativity.

Some selected acceptor-Be hydrocarbon complexes have been considered for evaluation of second hyperpolarizability at different DFT functional. All the complexes have been found thermally stable and there is a significant increase of second hyperpolarizability compared to the ligands. Second hyperpolarizability has been explained in terms of charge transfer interaction. Co-operative interaction is required for maximization of second hyperpolarizability. Localized charge transfer in the vicinity of metal alone cannot increase second hyperpolarizability while charge delocalization over entire molecule is mandatory. Substitution by more electropositive metals e.g. Mg , Ca have greater enhancement in longitudinal component of γ. Basis set 6-311++G** is reasonable with respect to computational cost at aug-cc-pVnZ's (n = D, T, Q) for evaluation of second hyperpolarizability for the present complexes.

Quantum calculations on 976 atoms of the voltage sensing domain of the K<sub>v</sub>1.2 channel, with protons in several positions, give energy, charge transfer, and other properties. Motion of the S4 transmembrane segment that accounts for gating current in standard models is shown not to occur; there is H<sup>+ </sup>transfer instead. The potential at which two proton positions cross in energy approximately corresponds to the gating potential for the channel. The charge displacement seems approximately correct for the gating current. Two mutations are accounted for (Y266F, R300cit, cit =citrulline). The primary conclusion is that voltage sensing depends on H<sup>+</sup> transfer, not motion of arginine charges.

The fluorescence quenching of 2-aminodiphenylamine (2ADPA), 4-aminodiphenylamine (4ADPA) and 4,4'-diaminodiphenylamine (DADPA) with tetrachloromethane, chloroform and dichloromethane have been studied in hexane, dioxane, acetonitrile and methanol as solvents. The quenching rate constants for the process have also been obtained by measuring the lifetimes of the fluorophores. The quenching was found to be dynamic in all cases. For 2ADPA and 4ADPA, the quenching rate constants of CCl4 and CHCl3 depend on the viscosity, whereas in the case of CH2Cl2, kq depends on polarity. The quenching rate constants for DADPA with CCl4 are viscosity-dependent but the quenching with CHCl3 and CH2Cl2 depends on the polarity of the solvents. From the results, the quenching mechanism is explained by the formation of a non-emissive complex involving a charge-transfer interaction between the electronically excited fluorophores and ground-state chloromethanes.

AbstractAn asymmetric organocatalytic nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of azlactones with electron-deficient aryls was established. A variety of α-aryl α-alkyl α-amino acid esters and peptides were obtained in decent yields and stereoselectivities. A new bifunctional catalytic mode involving charge-transfer interaction and hydrogen bonding is proposed to explain the enantioselectivity.
