The odd-electron halogen bond offers a fertile ground to explore the nature of non-covalent interactions. The regioselectivity, interaction energy and its components were analyzed by conceptual DFT parameters, NCI plot and LED-DLPNO-CCSD(T) analysis.

Bond energy is the main characteristic of chemical bonds in general and of non-covalent interactions in particular. Simple methods of express estimates of the interaction energy, Eint, using relationships between Eint and a property which is easily accessible from experiment is of great importance for the characterization of non-covalent interactions. In this work, practically important relationships between Eint and electron density, its Laplacian, curvature, potential, kinetic, and total energy densities at the bond critical point as well as bond length were derived for the structures of the [Z–I···Hal]– and [Z–Hal···I]– types bearing halogen bonds and involving iodine as interacting atom(s) (totally 412 structures). The mean absolute deviations for the correlations found were 2.06–4.76 kcal/mol.

ABSTRACTDisodium terephthalate (Na2TP), which is a disodium salt of terephthalic acid, is very promising organic electrode material for Na-ion batteries. We present an ab initio study of Na binding mechanism with Na2TP molecule. Specially, we provide the interaction energy of Na atom(s), effect of Na concentration on interaction energy, electronic properties of clean and Na attached Na2TP, and Na binding mechanism with Na2TP. We show that up to eight Na atoms can be attached to a single Na2TP molecule. The interaction energy of Na atoms varies from -0.79 to -0.66 eV with attachment of one to eight Na atoms. The adsorbed Na atom interacts with O atoms of carboxylate group and Na atoms of the salt molecule. The interaction between adsorbed Na and C atoms of the molecule is found to be not important for Na bindings. Attachment of a single Na atom generates a singly occupied orbital which becomes doubly occupied with attachment of second Na atoms. Attachment of more than two Na atoms leads to electron occupation of bonding orbitals formed between Na atoms and the carboxylate groups.

A comparative ab initio study is performed to investigate the cooperativity between the N···H hydrogen bond and the N···Y interactions in XCN···HCN···YCN complexes, where X = H, F, and Y = H, Li, F, Cl, and Br. To understand the properties of the systems better, the corresponding dimers are also studied. It is found that the lithium bond has a larger influence on the hydrogen bond than vice versa. The shortening of the N···H distances in the trimers is dependent on the strength of the H···Y interactions and they become larger in the order lithium bond > hydrogen bond > halogen bond. The estimated values of cooperative energy Ecoop are all negative with much larger Ecoop in absolute value for the systems including lithium.

Abstract Except σ-type and π-type halogen bond, a new type of the parallel halogen bond interactions between pyrazine (C4H4N2) and XF (X=F,Cl,Br and I) have been discovered at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level. Through comparing the calculated interaction energy,we can know that the π-type halogen bonding interactions are weaker than the corresponding σ-type halogen bonding interactions, and parallel halogen-bond interactions are weaker than the corresponding π-type halogen bonding interactions in C4H4N2-XF complexes. SAPT analysis shows that the electrostatic energy are the major source of the attraction for the σ-type halogen bonding interactions while the parallel halogen-bond interactions are mainly dispersion energy. For the π-type halogen bonding interactions in C4H4N2-XF(X=F and Cl) complexes, electrostatic energy are the major source of the attraction, while in C4H4N2-XF(X=Br and I) complexes the electrostatic term, induction and dispersion play equally important role in the total attractive interaction.NBO analysis, AIM theory and Conceptual DFT are also be utilized.
