Ultrasound-based synthesis at room temperature produces valuable compounds greener and safer than most other methods. This study presents the sonochemical fabrication and characterization of a pyridine-based halogenated hydrazone, (E)-2-((6-chloropyridin-2-yl)oxy)-N′-(2-hydroxybenzylidene) acetohydrazide (HBPAH). The NMR spectroscopic technique was used to determine the structure, while SC-XRD confirmed its crystalline nature. Our structural studies revealed that strong, inter-molecular attractive forces stabilize this crystalline organic compound. Moreover, the compound was optimized at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level using the Crystallographic Information File (CIF). Natural bonding orbital (NBO) and natural population analysis (NPA) were performed at the same level using optimized geometry. Time-dependent density functional theory (DFT) was performed at the B3LYP/6-311G (d,p) method to calculate the frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP). The global reactivity descriptors were determined using HOMO and LUMO energy gaps. Theoretical calculations based on the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QT-AIM) and Hirshfeld analyses identified the non-covalent and covalent interactions of the HBPAH compound. Consequently, QT-AIM and Hirshfeld analyses agree with experimental results.

The exo⇔endo isomerization of 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde was theoretically studied by density functional theory (DFT) to examine its favored conformers via sp2–sp2 single rotation. Both isomers were docked against 1BNA DNA to elucidate their binding ability, and the DFT-computed structural parameters results were matched with the X-ray diffraction (XRD) crystallographic parameters. XRD analysis showed that the exo-isomer was structurally favored and was also considered as the kinetically preferred isomer, while several hydrogen-bonding interactions detected in the crystal lattice by XRD were in good agreement with the Hirshfeld surface analysis calculations. The molecular electrostatic potential, Mulliken and natural population analysis charges, frontier molecular orbitals (HOMO/LUMO), and global reactivity descriptors quantum parameters were also determined at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. The computed electronic calculations, i.e., TD-SCF/DFT, B3LYP-IR, NMR-DB, and GIAO-NMR, were compared to the experimental UV–Vis., optical energy gap, FTIR, and 1H-NMR, respectively. The thermal behavior of 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde was also evaluated in an open atmosphere by a thermogravimetric–derivative thermogravimetric analysis, indicating its stability up to 95 °C.

The FTIR, UV–Vis and NMR spectra of 4-(2-hydroxy-3-morpholin-4-yl-propoxy)-chromen-2-one (4-HMPC) have been recorded and analyzed. The optimized geometry and harmonic vibrational frequencies of 4-HMPC were obtained by the Hartree–Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) using B3LYP functional with 6-311[Formula: see text]G basis set. The 1H and [Formula: see text]C NMR chemical shifts were calculated by the GIAO method in chloroform. The absorption spectra of 4-HMPC were computed in ethanol and water solutions using TD-B3LYP/6-311[Formula: see text]G(d,p) approach. The correlation of theoretical and experimental results provides a detailed description of the structural and physicochemical properties of the molecule. The results obtained from the studies of HOMO and LUMO were used to calculate the conceptual-DFT-based global reactivity descriptors such as electronic chemical potential, electronegativity, chemical hardness, global softness and electrophilicity index of the compound.

The Density Functional Theory

Cancer represents a major worldwide public health problem. While significant advances in different fronts are being made to combat the disease, the development of new metal-based drugs with cytotoxic capabilities is of high relevance. This work presents a heterobimetallic molecule comprising two moieties with a structure similar to Casiopeina II-gly. One of them has a cyclotetravanadate anion that functions as an inorganic bridge coordinating two Cu (II) atoms resulting in a hexanuclear [Cu(phen)(Gly)-µ2-V4O12-Cu(phen)(Gly)]2− complex, which is counterbalanced by two isolated [Cu(phen)(Gly)(H2O)]1+ cations. Ten water molecules arranged in two sets of five-member chains also play an essential role in the 3D supramolecular structure of the compound. The molecule was designed to provide Cu and V, two metals with proven anticancer capabilities in the same molecular structure. The compound was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis; visible, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopies; 51V Nuclear Magnetic Resonance; cyclic voltammetry; and monocrystalline X-ray diffraction. The structural, spectroscopic, and electronic properties of the compound were calculated through the density functional theory (DFT) using the Minnesota functional M06-2X and the Def2TZVP/LANL2TZ(f) basis sets with an effective core potential (ECP) for metals. Noncovalent interactions were analyzed using a natural population analysis (NPA) and Hirshfeld surfaces. The compound upon dissociation provides two metals that can interact with important biological targets in a variety of cancer cell models.

New approaches to the synthesis of 4,7-dichloro-1,10-phenanthrolines and their corresponding 9H-carbazol-9-yl-, 10H-phenothiazin-10-yl- and pyrrolidin-1-yl derivatives were developed. Their properties have been characterized by a combination of several techniques: MS, HRMS, GC-MS, electronic absorption spectroscopy and multinuclear NMR in both solution and solid state including 15N CP/MAS NMR. The structures of 5-fluoro-2,9-dimethyl-4,7-di(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline (5d), 4,7-di(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-9-oxo-9,10-dihydro-1,10-phenanthroline-5-carbonitrile (6a) and 4,7-di(10H-phenothiazin-10-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline-5-carbonitrile (6b) were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. The nucleophilic substitutions of hydrogen followed by oxidation produced compounds 6a and 6b. The electrochemical properties of selected 1,10-phenanthrolines were investigated using cyclic voltammetry and compared with commercially available reference 1,10-phenanthrolin-5-amine (5l). The spatial distribution of frontier molecular orbitals of the selected compounds has been calculated by density functional theory (DFT). It was shown that potentials of reduction and oxidation were in consistence with the level of HOMO and LUMO energies.

3-Amino-4-aminoximidofurazan (AMF) and 3-Amino-4-cyanofurazan (ACF) are important precursor of synthesizing new furazanon (furoxano) energetic compounds. The density functional theory (DFT) method of the Amsterdam density functional (ADF) was used to calculate the geometry and frequency of AMF and ACF. The detonation velocity (D) and pressure (P) of the two compounds were estimated using the nitrogen equivalent equation according to the experimental density. Results showed that the initial decomposition step of AMF and ACF is the loss of NH2 from C2, N3 is the point of molecular reactivity of AMF and ACF, the changed in group have little effect on HOMO and LUMO. AMF has better thermal stability than ACF, but the detonation performance of ACF is finer than AMF.

By combining mechanochemical synthesis and calorimetry with theoretical calculations, we demonstrate that dispersion-corrected periodic density functional theory (DFT) can accurately survey the topological landscape and predict relative energies of polymorphs for a previously inaccessible fluorine-substituted zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF). Experimental screening confirmed two out of three theoretically anticipated polymorphs, and the calorimetric measurements provided an excellent match to theoretically calculated energetic difference between them.<br>

: In this study, the antioxidant property of new synthesized azomethins has been investigated as theoretical and experimental. Methods and Results: Density functional theory (DFT) was employed to investigate the Bond Dissociation Enthalpy (BDE), Mulliken Charges, NBO analysis, Ionization Potential (IP), Electron Affinities (EA), HOMO and LUMO energies, Hardness (η), Softness (S), Electronegativity (µ), Electrophilic Index (ω), Electron Donating Power (ω-), Electron Accepting Power (ω+) and Energy Gap (Eg) in order to deduce scavenging action of the two new synthesized azomethines (FD-1 and FD-2). Spin density calculations and NBO analysis were also carried out to understand the antioxidant activity mechanism. Comparison of BDE of FD-1 and FD-2 indicate the weal antioxidant potential of these structures. Conclusion: FD-1 and FD-2 have very high antioxidant potential due to the planarity and formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds.

: Gallic acid is abundantly found in amla (Phyllanthus emblica), a deciduous of the family phyllanthaceae. Gallic acid, the major constituent of the plant was methylated to 3,4,5 trimethoxy gallic acid, which then underwent steglich esterification first with paracetamol and then with 4-hydroxy acetophenone to yield 4-acetamidophenyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate and 4-acetyl phenyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate “respectively”. 1H NMR, 13C NMR, UV, FT-IR and mass spectroscopy were used to characterize the synthesized compounds. Density functional theory (B3YLP) using 6-31G (d,p) basis set have been used for quantum chemical calculations. AIM (Atom in molecule) approach depicted weak molecular interactions within the molecules whereas the reactive site and reactivity within the molecule were examined by global and local reactivity descriptors. The HOMO and LUMO energies and frontier orbital energy gap were calculated by time dependant DFT approach using IEFPCM model. Small value for HOMO–LUMO energy gap indicated that easier charge transfer occurs within compound 4. The nucleophilic and electrophilic reactivity were determined by MEP (molecular electrostatic potential) experiment. Polarizability, dipole moment, and first hyperpolarizability values were calculated to depict the NLO (nonlinear optical) property of both the synthesized compounds. The antimicrobial activity was also carried out and broad spectrum antibacterial activity against several strains of bacteria and certain unicellular fungi were exhibited by synthesized compound 3.
