A new organic-inorganic hybrid material, [C10H28N4]Bi2Br10, has been synthesized and characterized. The compound crystallizes in monoclinic P21/c space group with a = 11.410(4) Å, b = 11.284(4) Å, c = 12.599(3) Å, β = 115.93(2)°, and V = 1458.8(8) Å3. The structure consists of discrete dinuclear [Bi2Br10]4− anions and [C10H28N4]4+ cations. It consists of a 0-D anion built up of edge-sharing bioctahedron. The crystal net contains N–H⋯Br hydrogen bonds. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) reveals an irreversible phase transition at −17°C. The frontier molecular orbital and the energy gap between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) calculation allow the classification of the material as an insulator.

Topological analyses of the electron density using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) have been carried out at the B3PW91/6-31g (d) theoretical level, on bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes derivatives 9-(4-(di (1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-methyl)phenyl)-9H-carbazole (L) and its zinc(II) complexes: ZnLCl2 (1), ZnLBr2 (2) and ZnLI2 (3). The topological parameters derived from Bader theory were also analyzed; these are characteristics of Zn-bond critical points and also of ring critical points. The calculated structural parameters are the frontier molecular orbital energies highest occupied molecular orbital energy (EHOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy (ELUMO), hardness (?), softness (S), the absolute electronegativity (?), the electrophilicity index (?) and the fractions of electrons transferred (?N) from ZnLX2 complexes to L. The numerous correlations and dependencies between energy terms of the Symmetry Adapted Perturbation Theory approach (SAPT), geometrical, topological and energetic parameters were detected and described.

Abstract In this work, the adsorption and inhibition behavior of 1,3-benzothiazol-6-ol were investigated by computational and experimental techniques for steel X80 corrosion in acidic solution. The density functional theory was carried out and quantum chemical factors like the energy gap, energy of highest occupied molecular orbital, the energy of lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, the fraction of electron transferred, and Mulliken charges have been calculated. In addition, according to quantum calculation, S atom in 1,3-benzothiazol-6-ol indicated more tendency for electrophilic attack in adsorption. The main reason for high inhibition efficiencies in very low concentrations is the planar and simplicity of inhibitor structure which leads to increasing the efficiency of adsorption by functional group especially sulfur. Electrochemical frequency modulation and potentiodynamic polarization indicated that this material has excellent inhibiting features in very low concentrations. The influence of DC trend on the explanation of electrochemical noise data was evaluated by polynomial fitting and the optimum polynomial order m = 5 was obtained. Noise resistance and the inhibition efficiency was calculated and compared in different methods. The theory of shot noise in frequency domain was used to obtain the electrochemical event charge. The corroded surface of steel in the absence and existence of thiazole compound was studied by Atomic force microscopy.

The geometric structures and electronic properties of Si doped Fen (n=2-7) clusters have been systematically studied at the BPW91 level in density-functional theory (DFT). Calculated results show that an Si impurity does not change the ground-state structure of small iron clusters and prefers to occupy surface site bonding with iron atoms as many as possible. The second-order energy difference and the vertical ionization potential show that n=4 and 6 are magic numbers within the size range studied, but the maximum value occurs at n=4 for the energy gap between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO). It is found that the hybridization intensity between Si and Fe atoms is relevant to the stability of clusters.

The efficiency of 1,3-benzodioxole derivatives as corrosion inhibitors is theoretically studied using quantum chemical calculation and Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR). Different semiempirical methods (AM1, PM3, MNDO, MINDO/3, and INDO) are applied in order to determine the relationship between molecular structure and their corrosion protection efficiencies. Different quantum parameters are obtained as the energy of highest occupied molecular orbitalEHOMO, the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitalELUMO, energy gapΔEg, dipole momentμ, and Mulliken charge on the atom. QSAR approach is applied to elucidate some important parameters as the hydrophobicity (Log P), surface area (S.A), polarization(P), and hydration energy (EHyd).

Abstract The external electric field has a significant influence on the sensitivity of the energetic cocrystal materials. In order to find out the relationship between the external electric field and sensitivity of energetic cocrystal compounds 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane/1,4-dinitroimidazole (CL-20/1,4-DNI), 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane/1-methyl-2,4-dinitro-1H-imidazole (CL-20/2,4-MDNI) and 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane/1-methyl-4,5-dinitro-1H-imidazole (CL-20/4,5-MDNI). In this work, density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP-D3/6-311+G(d,p) and M062X-D3/ma-def2 TZVPP levels was employed to calculate the bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of selected N-NO2 trigger bonds, frontier molecular orbitals, electrostatic potentials (ESPs) and nitro group charges (QNO2) under different external electric field. The results show that as the positive electric field intensity increases, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy gap and BDEs become smaller, and the local positive ESPs becomes larger, so that the energetic cocrystals tends to have higher sensitivity. In addition, the linear fitting results show that the trigger bond length and nitro group charge changes are closely related to the external electric field strength.

The ortho-CF3 substituent and the N-H bond are in syn-conformation in N-[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]succinamic acid. In amide and acid functionalities, the carbonyl groups are directed in opposite directions to each other and their related-CH2 groups. syn-Conformation is observed for the acid functionality, where the carbonyl C=O and hydroxyl O-H bonds are directed in the same direction. Three planar fragments comprise of the molecule: aromatic ring (A), core portion -Carm-N(H)-C(=O)-C(H2)-C(H2)(B) and -C(H2)-C(=O)-OH(C). The dihedral angle between a pair of fragments being 48.6(4)º (A and B), 81.6 (4)º (B and C) and 70.5 (5)º (A and C). N-H•••O hydrogen bonds bind the molecules forming C(4) chains in the crystal, and the neighbouring anti-parallel chains are bound by O-H•••O hydrogen bonds resulting in a chair shaped ribbon of one-dimensional nature. The Hirshfeld surface study was carried out, including fingerprint plots. Studies have shown that the interactions with O•••H/H•••O (27.4%), H•••H (27.3%) and H•••F/F•••H (20.2%) substantially added to the surface. Theoretically, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and various global reactivity descriptors were also computed by the density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) approach with a 6-311G(d, p) basis set in the ground state on the geometrically optimized structure in the gas phase.

A series of [Re(N^N)(CO)3(Cl)] (N^N = diimine) complexes based on 4-(pyrid-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (1), 1-benzyl-4-(pyrimidin-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (2), and 1-benzyl-4-(pyrazin-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (3) diimine ligands were prepared and their photophysical and electrochemical properties were characterized. The ligand-based reduction wave is shown to be highly sensitive to the nature of the triazole-based ligand, with the peak potential shifting by up to 600 mV toward more positive potential from 1 to 3. All three complexes are phosphorescent in solution at room temperature with λmax ranging from 540 nm (1) to 638 nm (3). Interestingly, the complexes appear to show inverted energy-gap law behaviour (τ = 43 ns for 1 versus 92 ns for 3), which is tentatively interpreted as reduced thermal accessibility of metal-centred (3MC) states from photoexcited metal to ligand charge transfer (3MLCT) states upon stabilisation of the N^N-centred lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO). The photophysical characterisation, supported by computational data, demonstrated a progressive stabilization of the LUMO from complex 1 to 3, which results in a narrowing of the HOMO–LUMO energy gap (HOMO = highest occupied molecular orbital) across the series and, correspondingly, red-shifted electronic absorption and photoluminescence spectra. The two complexes bearing pyridyl (1) and pyrimidyl (2) moieties, respectively, showed a modest ability to catalyse the electroreduction of CO2, with a peak potential at ca. −2.3 V versus Fc/Fc+. The catalytic wave that is observed in the cyclic voltammograms is slightly enhanced by the addition of water as a proton source.

The geometrical and electronic structures of [M6O[Formula: see text]][Formula: see text] (M [Formula: see text] Mo, W, [Formula: see text]; M [Formula: see text] V, Nb, Ta, [Formula: see text]) and their derivatives were investigated by using density functional theory methods. The results indicate that the geometrical structure of [V6O[Formula: see text]][Formula: see text] is not different from other Lindqvist-type anions. The energy gap between highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) (HOMO[Formula: see text]LUMO energy gap) of [V6O[Formula: see text]][Formula: see text] is smaller than those of same charge anions, [Nb6O[Formula: see text]][Formula: see text] and [Ta6O[Formula: see text]][Formula: see text]. In addition, the charge density [Formula: see text] of [V6O[Formula: see text]][Formula: see text] is larger when compared with those of other studied clusters. The investigation on the derivatives shows that the valence of V atom (V[Formula: see text] or V[Formula: see text]) and the methoxy ligand influence the HOMO[Formula: see text]LUMO energy gap and the charge density [Formula: see text] of the studied clusters.

ZnSe cluster is the main form of growth mechanism in CuInGaSe based solar cells as the buffer layer and the building blocks for larger bulk ZnSe materials as well. With the generalized gradient approximation in first principle all-electron calculations, a number of configurations and structural isomers of ZnnSen(n=1~13) nanoclusters has been geometrically optimized to get the lowest energy constructions of ZnnSen(n=1~13). Second-order energy difference were applied to investigate the stability of small ZnSe nanoclusters. And the nanocage Zn12Se12cluster has been identified to be in rather stable state and can be the building block of larger ZnSe nanoclusters materials. Energy gap between lowest unoccupied molecular orbital and the highest occupied molecular orbital, Infrared Spectroscopy have also been investigated for further study on size and optical properties through testing methods.
