Present investigation deals with the synthesis and density functional theory study (DFT) of a chalcone derivative; (E)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (CPMPP). The synthesis of a CPMPP has been carried out by the reaction of 4-methoxyacetophenone and 4-chlorobenzalehyde in ethanol at 30 ℃ under ultrasound irradiation. The structure of a synthesized chalcone is affirmed on the basis of FT-IT, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The geometry of a CPMPP is optimized by using the density functional theory method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) basis set. The optimized geometrical parameters like bond length and bond angles have been computed. The absorption energies, oscillator strength, and electronic transitions have been derived at the TD-DFT method at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory for B3LYP/6-31G(d p) optimized geometries. The effect of polarity on the absorption energies is discussed by computing UV-visible results in dichloromethane (DCM). Since theoretically obtained wavenumbers are typically higher than experimental wavenumbers, computed wavenumbers were scaled with a scaling factor, and vibrational assignments were made by comparing experimental wavenumbers to scaled theoretical wavenumbers. Quantum chemical parameters have been determined and examined. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surface plot analysis has been carried out at the same level of theory. Mulliken atomic charge study is also discussed in the present study.

This paper presents a comparative study on natural indigo and indirubin in terms of molecular structures and spectral properties by using both computational and experimental methods. The spectral properties were analyzed with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Raman, UV-Visible, and fluorescence techniques. The density functional theory (DFT) method with B3LYP using 6-311G(d,p) basis set was utilized to obtain their optimized geometric structures and calculate the molecular electrostatic potential, frontier molecular orbitals, FTIR, and Raman spectra. The single-excitation configuration interaction (CIS), time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT), and polarization continuum model (PCM) were used to optimize the excited state structure and calculate the UV-Visible absorption and fluorescence spectra of the two molecules at B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. The results showed that all computational spectra agreed well with the experimental results. It was found that the same vibrational mode presents a lower frequency in indigo than that in indirubin. The frontier molecular orbital analysis demonstrated that the UV-Visible absorption and fluorescence bands of indigo and indirubin are mainly derived from π → π* transition. The results also implied that the indigo molecule is more conjugated and planar than indirubin, thereby exhibiting a longer maximum absorption wavelength and stronger fluorescence peak.

The optimized molecular structures, vibrational frequencies and corresponding vibrational assignments of the two planar O-cis and O-trans rotomers of 2,4-, 2,5- and 2,6-difluorobenzaldehyde have been calculated using ab initio Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (B3LYP) methods with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set level. The calculations were adapted to the CS symmetries of all the molecules. The O-trans rotomers with lower energy of all the compounds have been found as preferential rotomers in the ground state. The mean vibrational deviations between the vibrational frequency values of the two conformers of all the compounds have been shown to increase while the relative energies increase, and so it has been concluded that the higher the relative energy between the two conformers the bigger is the mean vibrational deviation.

In the present work, two-armed macroinitiator containing coumarin were synthesized, characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance techniques and investigated theoretically using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The molecular geometry, fundamental vibrational frequencies, atomic charges obtained from atomic polar tensors and Mulliken were analyzed by means of structure optimizations based on the DFT method with 6-31G+(d, p) as a basis set. The 1H chemical shifts were calculated by the gauge-including atomic orbital method and compared with available experimental data. The electronic properties, such as highest occupied molecular orbital – lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO–LUMO) energies, electron affinity, electronegativity, ionization energy, hardness, chemical potential, global softness, and global electrophilicity were calculated by using the DFT method. The electrostatic potential and molecular electrostatic potential surfaces were performed to predict the reactive sites of the two-armed macroinitiator. The energy difference between acceptor and donor and stabilization energy were determined using natural bond orbital analysis. The results show that the occurrence of intramolecular charge transfers within the polymer. Time-dependent density functional theory calculations of visible spectra were analyzed at different solvents. Finally, thermodynamic functions, such as enthalpy, heat capacity, and entropy, of the two-armed macroinitiator at different temperatures were calculated and the relationship with temperature was investigated.

The Density Functional Theory method was employed to investigate the electronic structure and muonium hyperfine interaction of muonium trapped near carbon atom labelled as '5' in cytosine nucleobase. Eighteen different basis sets in combination with B3LYP functional were examined in geometry optimization calculations on the muoniated radical. There are significant quantitative differences in the calculated total energy. The employment of basis set that does not include polarization function produces an optimized structure with high total energy. The 6-311++G(d,p) basis set yielded the lowest total energy as compared to other basis sets. The bond order of muonium trapped at C5 atom is in the range of 0.841 to 0.862. The 6-31G basis set produced the muonium Fermi contact coupling constant that is the closest to the experimental value.

The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of siderol, extracted from the aerial parts of Sideritis Gülendamii, has been measured in the range 4000–400 cm–1. Vibrational assignments and analyses of the fundamental modes of siderol were performed using the observed FTIR data recorded in the solid phase. The vibrational frequencies determined experimentally are compared with those obtained theoretically from density functional theory (DFT) and Hartee–Fock (HF) calculations. Optimized geometrical parameters of the title compound are in agreement with similar reported structures. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of siderol have also been calculated by means of DFT and HF methods. The comparison between the experimental and the theoretical results indicates that density functional methods, B3LYP and MPW1PW91 with 6-31G(d) basis set, are able to provide satisfactory results for predicting NMR properties. On the basis of vibrational analyses, the thermodynamic properties of the title molecule have also been computed.

The structures of two new anthracenyl chalcones, namely (E)-1-(anthracen-9-yl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C23H15NO3, and (E)-1-(anthracen-9-yl)-3-(4-iodophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C23H15IO are reported. A structural comparative study between the two chalcones was performed and some effects on the geometrical parameters, such as planarity and dihedral angles, are described. The molecular geometry was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP with the 6–311++G(d,p) basis set was applied to optimize the ground-state geometry. In addition, intermolecular interactions responsible for the crystal packing were analysed. The electronic properties, such as excitation energies and HOMO–LUMO energies were calculated by time-dependent density functional theory (TD–DFT) and the results complement the experimental findings. The molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) was also investigated at the same level of theory in order to identify and quantify the possible reactive sites.

The ethyl 6-amino-5-cyano-2-methyl-4-(4-nitrophenyl)-4H-pyran-3-carboxylate (ACNPPC) was synthesized using an environmentally friendly method and looked into in terms ofstructural, UV-visible, vibrational, and computational analysis. In the gaseous phase, calculations of the density functional theory (DFT) with B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level were performed. Using Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) with the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) basis set method, the HOMO and LUMO energies are calculated. For assessing electrophilic and nucleophilic reactive sites, the molecular electrostatic surface potential (MESP) and contour plot were plotted over the optimized structure. Using computed and experimental vibrational spectra, vibrational assignments were elucidated. To illustrate the charge density in the title compound, Mulliken atomic charges are disclosed. In addition, using vibrational analysis, some thermochemical functions have also been derived. Theoretical simulations have shown the best relationship with experimental results obtained with the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory at the DFT and TD-DFT methods.
