<p>We thoroughly benchmark time-dependent density- functional theory for the predictive calculation of UV/Vis spectra of porphyrin derivatives. With the aim to provide an approach that is computationally feasible for large-scale applications such as biological systems or molecular framework materials, albeit performing with high accuracy for the Q-bands, we compare the results given by various computational protocols, including basis sets, density-functionals (including gradient corrected local functionals, hybrids, double hybrids and range-separated functionals), and various variants of time-dependent density-functional theory, including the simplified Tamm-Dancoff approximation. An excellent choice for these calculations is the range-separated functional CAM-B3LYP in combination with the simplified Tamm-Dancoff approximation and a basis set of double-ζ quality def2-SVP (mean absolute error [MAE] of ~0.05 eV). This is not surpassed by more expensive approaches, not even by double hybrid functionals, and solely systematic excitation energy scaling slightly improves the results (MAE ~0.04 eV). </p>

Leukemia Treatment

Ibrutinib, a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase that plays an essential role in the B-cell development and cancer cells, has been recently approved to treat chronic, lymphocytic, and other types of leukemia. This study focused on investigating ibrutinib by its electronic transitions, vibrational frequencies, and electrospray mass spectra. The experimental peaks for electronic spectrum were found at 248.0 and 281.0 nm, whereas the νC = 0 stretching frequency was found at 1652.4 and 1639.19 cm−1. These experimental properties were compared with the corresponding theoretical calculations in which density functional theory was applied. The optimized structure was obtained with the calculations using a hybrid function (B3LYP) and high-level basis sets [6-311G++(d,p)]. Most of the calculated vibrational frequencies showed a relatively good agreement with the experimental ones. The electronic transitions of ibrutinib calculated using time-dependent DFT method were performed at two different solvation methods: PCM and SMD. The mass spectrum of ibrutinib, its fragments, and its isotopic pattern agreed well with the expected spectra.

Abstract The structures of tri-and tetraiodo-substituted carbon compounds are determined either expe­rimentally by X-Ray Structure Analysis or, because crystallization of tetraiodothiophene could not be achieved, approximated by Density Functional Theory optimization of structural data from a donor/acceptor complex. The structures show noteworthy details such as a second po­lymorph of tetraiodoethene crystallized by sublimation or herringbone crystal packing patterns of tetraiodopyrrole derivatives. All molecular geometries are discussed and compared based on relativistic density functional theory calculations with 6 -31G* basis sets including iodine pseudopotentials. They reproduce even finer structural details due to van der Waals repulsion of the bulky iodo substituents. Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) charge distributions suggest positive partial charges at all iodine centers with the strongest polarization Cδ㊀ → Iδ㊉ in HCI3, which contains well over 97% iodine.

Abstract 2,3-Dicyanopyrazine based acceptor was combined with a series of well studied donors to obtain donor-acceptor type potential thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters. Their structural and electronic properties were computed theoretically at the level of density functional theory and time dependent density functional theory with the application of two different hybrid functionals and various basis sets. Almost all of the designed structures were computed to have the potential of being TADF compounds since they possess very narrow singlet-triplet gaps. Indeed, acridine-pyrazine (9) derivative was calculated to be the best candidate for the purpose among them.
