The interaction of cucurbiturils (Q6, Q7, and Q8) with Ca and Ba chlorides and iodides are studied for the first time by density functional theory. The thermodynamic parameters for the formation of host–guest complexes are calculated. The structures of complexes of Q6 and Q7 with one and two guest molecules are established. The energy parameters for the transfer of Be2+ and Ba2+ cations from an aqueous solution into the cavity of Q7 containing n water molecules are defined. The dependences of the formation energies for complexes Q7WnBe2+ and Q7WnBa2+ on the number of water molecules are shown to be parabolic, with the energy minima at n = 5 and n = 6, respectively. It is found that Q7 can form in an aqueous solution supramolecular complexes with protonated histamine (HA) and neutral histamine in the presence of Ca2+ ions.

The mechanism of inhibition of water and glycerol permeation via human aquaglyceroporin-3 (AQP3) by gold(iii) complexes has been described, for the first time, using molecular dynamics (MD), combined with density functional theory (DFT) and electrochemical studies.

AbstractThe mechanism of the adsorption and grafting of diazonium cations onto the surface of graphyne and graphdiyne was investigated using Density Functional Theory (DFT). The adsorption energy (both in vacuum and water as solvent) of the phenyl diazonium cation was evaluated at three different positions of the graphyne and graphdiyne surface. Moreover, the lowest energy adsorption sites were used to calculate and plot Non-covalent Interactions (NCI). The Bond Dissociation Energy (BDE) results (up to 66 kcal/mol) for the scission of the phenyl group support the remarkable stability of the grafted layer. As both of these materials are non-dispersible in aqueous solution, in this work through the use of Molecular Mechanics (MM) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) we explored also the effect of the grafted substituted aryl groups derived from aryldiazonium salts onto the solvation properties of these materials.
