The structure, properties and stability of 7 thermodynamically stable, meta-stable and high-pressure Al2O3 polymorphs and the structure and relative stability of 4 Al hydroxides were calculated with periodic hybrid density functional theory and compared with available experimental data.

According to the results of a quantum chemical study in the framework of the electron density functional theory using the В3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) method, a theoretical mechanism of the reaction of benzoylacetylene with dyselenomalonamide is proposed. It was shown that the reaction includes the following stages: nucleophilic addition of the selenoamide fragment to the electrondeficient -carbon atom of benzoylacetylene with the formation of ketovinyl selenide and further intramolecular cyclization of the mono-derivative due to nucleophilic addition of the second selenium atom of the selenol group of the reagent via the same -carbon with the formation of a heterocyclic product.

A b s t r a c t: In order to get a more exact basis for the band assignments in the case of dichlorodioxochromium(VI) complex with 1,10-phenanthroline (especially regarding the order of appearance of the antisymmetric and symmetric CrO2 stretching bands) a quantum chemical study of this system was carried out. Two levels of theory were employed – the HF/6-31++G(d,p) and the density-functional-theory-based (DFT) method B3–LYP/6- 31++G(d,p). Full geometry optimizations of the title complex were carried out, employing Schlegel's gradient optimization algorithm. Harmonic vibrational analyses of the stationary points located on both potential energy hypersurfaces were subsequently carried out in order to test their character and to compute the harmonic vibrational frequencies of the complex. Predictions of the ab initio and DFT quantum chemical approaches regarding the order of appearance of the antisymmetric and symmetric CrO2 stretching bands in the case of the studied complex were compared to the cases of analogous 2,2'-bipyridine and 2,2'-biquinoline complexes containing the CrO2 group, which were previously studied by us [1–6].
