Pentacenes bearing electron-donating and (or) -withdrawing groups, namely methoxy-, dialkylamino-, and nitroaryl moieties, are synthesized to afford polarized pentacenes. The optical, electrochemical, and chemical properties of these derivatives are explored. The cycloaddition reaction of selected derivatives with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) is explored, and the experimental results are rationalized on the basis calculations using density functional theory (DFT). X-ray crystallographic data provides insight into the molecular structure and intermolecular interactions present in the solid state.

series of push-pull chromophores built around thiophene-based . π-conjugating spacers and bearing various types of amino-donors and cyanovinyl-acceptors have been analyzed by means of UV-Vis- NIR spectroscopic measurements. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have also been performed to help the assignment of the most relevant electronic features and to derive useful information about the molecular structure of these NLO-phores. The effects of the donor/acceptor substitution in the electronic and molecular properties of the .π -conjugated spacer have been addressed. The effectiveness of the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) has also been tested as a function of the nature of the end groups (i.e., electron-donating or electron-withdrawing capabilities).

The silatrane hydride compound, [N(CH2CH2O)3]SiH, reacts with CO2 in the presence of the [tris(2-pyridylthio)methyl]zinc hydride complex, [Tptm]ZnH, to afford the silyl formate and methoxide derivatives, [N(CH2CH2O)3]SiO2CH and [N(CH2CH2O)3]SiOCH3. The molecular structure of [N(CH2CH2O)3]SiO2CH has been determined by X-ray diffraction, thereby demonstrating that the formate ligand adopts a distal conformation in which the uncoordinated oxygen atom resides with a trans-like disposition relative to silicon. Density functional theory calculations indicate that the atrane motif of [N(CH2CH2O)3]SiO2CH is flexible, such that the energy of the molecule changes relatively little as the Si···N distance varies over the range 2.0–3.0 Å.

In the present study, 2-(p-tolyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidine (TDHP) is synthesized from 1,8-naphthalenediamine and 4-methylbenzaldehyde by embedding a one-carbon unit between the nitrogen followed by ring closure using green chemistry approach. 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectral techniques were used to validate the structure of the TDHP. The synthesized perimidine TDHP is studied using density functional theory (DFT) to provide valuable insights into structural, chemical, and thermochemical study.The structural and chemical properties of TDHP were computed using the DFT method on the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) basis package. Bond lengths were predicted from the optimised molecular structure, and the physical and chemical properties of the molecules were inferred as a consequence. The HOMO and LUMO are computed, and quantum chemical parameters are determined using electronic energies. The calculated HOMO-LUMO energy gap is 4.25 eV indicating charge transfer phenomenon within the molecule. The electron density and chemical behaviour of the TDHP was predicted using Mulliken atomic charges and the molecular electrostatic surface potential plot.Amongst all carbon atoms, the C8 carbon as more positive and C27 as more negative carbon atoms. The high global electrophilicity index suggests electrophilic character of the TDHP.The harmonic vibrational frequencies were used to measure total energy, total molar entropy, and molar heat capacity.

We report here the synthesis of Z-3-(2-Ethoxyphenyl)-2-(2-Ethoxyphenyl)-1,3-Thiazolidin-4-one compound. The crystal structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P21/n and cell parameters: a = 9.4094(10), b = 9.3066(10), c = 20.960(2) Å, β=99.0375(10)0, V = 1812.7(3)Å3 and Z = 4. The structure has been refined to a final R = 0.05 for 2083 observed reflections. The refined structure was found to be significantly non planar. The molecule exhibits intermolecular hydrogen bond of type C–H...O, C–H...N and C–H...S. Ab initio calculations were also performed at Hartree–Fock and density functional theory levels. The full HF and DFT geometry optimization was carried out using 6-31G(d,p) basis set. The observed molecular structure is compared with that calculated by both HF and density functional theory methods. The optimized geometry of the title compound was found to be consistent structure determined by X-ray diffraction.
