Based upon a simple model describing the substituent effect only by a change in the Coulombic integral Δαμ, a relation is derived which can be viewed as a quantum chemical analogue of the Hammet equation. This relation and knowledge of the reaction constant ρ for a reaction on a skeleton chosen as a standard make it possible to predict theoretically the magnitude of the ρ constant for this reaction on an arbitrary conjugated skeleton provided that for the latter the Hammet equation holds.

Mechanism of the so-called positive bridging effect was studied on the basis of an equation which can be viewed as a quantum chemical analogue of the Hammett equation. From this study it follows that the effect is presumably due to solvation effects of the reaction medium.

Various quantum chemical approaches to the problem of transmission of the substituent effect were compared. It was shown that inclusion of the electronic repulsion (field effect) was necessary to give a true picture of differences in ρ constants for reactions of the cis and trans isomers of substituted unsaturated carboxylic acids; the same holds for an adequate description of transmission of the substituent effect from the meta position on a given skeleton.

Abstract The absorption and luminescence characteristics of a group of newly synthesized methyl esters of 2-alkyl (p-substituted-aryl) -aminomethylene-3,4-dihydro-1(2 H)-naphthalenone-4-carboxylic acids have been investigated. The studied compounds may exist in three tautomeric forms. On the basis of comparison of their electronic spectra to those of similar substances, the observed substituent effect on the position of the UV-VIS absorption bands, the IR spectra and the results of PPP-SCF-CI quantum-chemical calculations it is concluded that the keto tautomer predominates in solution.

Separation of the substituent effect ρσ into entropie ρSσS and enthalpic ρHσH contributions is presented within the framework of the general Hammett equation. Analysis of the experimental data for aromatic acids shows that, in general, entropie effects are the major contribution to the total substituent effect, the entropic reaction constant being approximately equal to the normal Hammett ρ A comparison of the present results with those based on a separation of inductive and resonance effects shows that the entropie and inductive effects are directly related. On the other hand, strongly resonance interacting substituents were found to be enthalpy controlled. The substituent effect on enthalpy and entropy changes is discussed from a molecular point of view and related to inductive and resonance effects. A list of 16 enthalpic (σH) and entropie (σS) substituent constants are presented.

The features of deuterium adsorption on the surface of gold nanoparticles deposited on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) were determined. The results showed that deuterium adsorption on gold nanoparticles takes place at room temperature. The results also showed that the filling of the nanoparticles’ surfaces with the adsorbate occurs from the graphite–gold interface until the entire surface is covered by deuterium. The results of quantum chemical simulations are used to explain the experimental data. A simple model of the observed effects is proposed.

The cooperativity between hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds in X–HCN–Y ( X: C2H2, H2O, NH3, HCI, HCN, HF; Y: HF, BrF, Br2 is analyzed with MP2/6-311++G(d, p) and DFT/6-311++G(d, p) calculations using the B3LYP and mPW1PW91 hybrid functionals. The results from the quantum chemical calculations are typically clustered in groups according to the Y-ligand. By choosing the X–HCN–HF group as reference it is possible to describe the interaction between the hydrogen and the halogen bond with a two-parameter model. The value of the first parameter of the model describes the contribution of the X -ligand to the interbond cooperativity in the reference cluster. The second parameter of our model quantifies the changes in interbond cooperativity upon varying the Y -ligand. This simple model can be used to predict the cooperativity in X–HCN–Y trimers with reasonable accuracy and thereby to organize the results systematically. It is further shown that the conclusions drawn from this ordering scheme are independent from the computational method and thereby generally applicable.
