The acetylation mechanisms of several selected typical substrates from experiments, including arylamines and arylhydrazines, are investigated with the density functional theory in this paper. The results indicate that all the transition states are characterized by a four-membered ring structure, and hydralazine (HDZ) is the most potent substrate. The bioactivity for all the compounds is increased in a sequence ofPABA≈4-AS<4-MA<5-AS≈INH<HDZ. The conjunction effect and the delocalization of the lone pairs of N atom play a key role in the reaction. All the results are consistent with the experimental data.

Based on density functional theory, this paper studies the adsorption and the subsurface occupation by H on LaFeO3 (010) surface and their corresponding transition states. As shown from the results, the best storage positions of hydrogen are on the O top position of the LaFeO3 (010) surface and the interstice near the oxygen of the subsurface. In addition, the position of surface Fe atom can also store hydrogen, but H atom prefers to adsorb on O atom first. Whether the H atom is adsorbed on O or Fe atom, it is easy diffuse to the nearby more stable O atom. However, the diffusion between the Fe atoms is difficult to occur. The main diffusion path of the H atom from the surface to the subsurface is the process of inward layer by layer around the O atom. With the fracture of the old H–O bond and the formation of the new H–O bond, the H is around O atom to constantly repeat the process of a hopping-rotational diffusion. H diffuses through the nearest neighbor position, which is more favorable than the direct diffusion.

Through this work, we systematically studied the structural, vibrational and electronic properties of the fundamental state of the isolated thyroxine(3,5,3’,5-tetraiodothyronine). The minimum energy structures and properties were obtained using the Density Functional Theory (DFT). Our simulation results were compared with experimental results, including infra-red and Raman spectroscopy with an emphasis on the properties of iodine atoms. The UV-vis spectrum calculated in this work is the first result of this model for the thyroxine molecule.
