The 12 cage-anchoring points of the very stable icosahedral ortho-, meta-, and para-carborane allow the design of multidimensional architectures provided new self-assembling routes are devised. We provide bases for constructing carborane molecular architectures through high-level quantum chemical computations. We consider ejection mechanisms for the inner atom/ion in endohedral carborane complexes, singlet-triplet energy gaps in carborane biradicals, as well as geometry reorganization in carborane neutral and dianionic triplet states. These features, explored in monomers, are starting points for the design of molecular architectures based on electronic structure properties of carborane assemblies.

Quantum chemical calculations at semiempirical (MNDO methods) and ab initio (6-31G and STO-3G basis ses) levels have been performed on boron(III) subphthalocyanines 1-10. Theoretical calculations predict a cone-shaped structure for these compounds independently of the kind of peripheral substitution and even of compositional changes in the central region of the macrocycle (for example, substitution of the boron atom by two hydrogens). The theoretical calculations are in excellent agreement with previous X-ray determinations.

An ab initio model is used to determine the infrared absorption cross sections of CO2 gas as a function of laser wavelength. The intra-molecular potential energy and electric dipole moment of the CO2 molecule as a function of molecular nuclear configurations are obtained by solving the Kohn-Sham (KS) equation. The rotational constants at different vibrational levels, the vibrational energy eigen values and transition dipole moments are determined by solving the pure vibrational Schro¨dinger equation. Using the Fermi’s Golden Rule and all the calculated ab initio results, the absorption cross sections of CO2 gas at room temperature and one atmosphere pressure are obtained. The calculated results have a good agreement with experimental results. Based on the calculated ab initio results, the infrared absorption cross sections of CO2 gas at higher pressures are calculated. The absorption spectra at high pressures are found to be much smoother due to the overlaps between neighboring absorption line shapes.
