In an effort to evaluate and design fast, accurate density functional theory (DFT) methods for 5-(4- methoxyphenyl)-3-(1-methylindol-3yl)isoxazole compound was done using Gaussion’ 09 program package using B3LYP method with the 6-31G basis set, which has been successfully applied in order to derive the optimized geometry, bonding features, harmonic vibrational wave numbers, NBO analysis and Mulliken population analysis on atomic charges in the ground state. Optimized geometries of the molecule have been described and collate with the experimental values. The experimental atomic charges demonstrates adequate concurrence with the theoretical prediction from DFT. The theoretical spectra values have been interpreted and compared with the FT-IR spectra. The calculated highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy gaps also confirm that charge transfer takes place within the molecule.

The structural optimization and the frequency for chitosan monomer, chitobiose and chitotriose with the quantum chemistry abinitio HF and the density functional B3LYP method by choosing 6-311 + G (d, p) as the basis set were calculated and studied. For its three rotational isomers, gauche-trans (gt), gauche - gauche (gg), and trans-gauche (tg), the calculations comparatively were performed respectively. The charge distribution and frontier molecular orbit were analyzed by using the method of natural bond orbital (NBO). The calculated IR spectrum was compared with the experimental data. The results showed that the three rotational isomers gt, gg, and tg can stably existed in chitosan with the stability order gg﹥gt﹥tg. Its highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) was provided primarily by nitrogen atom and its lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) was provided mainly by the oxygen atom; Its reaction active sites were concentrated in -NH2 and –OH. The calculated infrared spectra were in good agreement with the experimental values.

AbstractIn this study, (E)-5-((4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino)-4-hydroxy-3-(phenyldiazenyl)naphthalene-2,7-diylbis(hydrogen sulfite), a cyanurated H-acid (CHA) azo dye, was synthesized and characterized using FT-IR spectrophotometer and GC-MS spectroscopy. A density functional theory (DFT) based B3LYP and CAM-B3LYP method with 6–311 + G (d,p) basis set analysis was computed for HOMO-LUMO, natural bonding orbitals (NBO), UV-Vis absorptions and excitation interactions, in order to understand its molecular orbital excitation properties. A low Energy gap (Eg) of 2.947 eV was obtained from the molecular orbital analysis, which showed that HOMO to LUMO transition is highly feasible; hence CHA is adequate for diverse electronic and optic applications. Studies of the first five excitations (S0 → S1/S2/S3/S4/S5) of CHA revealed that S0 → S1 and S0 → S3 are π → π* type local excitations distributed around the –N=N– group; S0 → S2, a Rydberg type local excitation; S0 → S4, a highly localized π → π* excitation; while S0 → S5 is an n → π* charge transfer from a benzene ring to –N=N– group. From NBO analysis, we obtained the various donor–acceptor orbital interactions contributing to the stabilization of the studied compound. Most significantly, some strong hyper-conjugations (n → n*) within fragments, and non-bondingand anti-bonding intermolecular (n → n*/π* and π → n*/π*) interactions were observed to contribute appreciable energies. This study is valuable for understanding the molecular properties of the azo dyes compounds and for synthesizing new ones in the future.

In the present research, B45H36N45 Born Nitride (9,9) nanotube (BNNT) and Al45H36N45 Aluminum nitride (9,9) nanotube (AlNNT) have been studied, both having the same length of 5 angstroms. The main reason for choosing boron nitride nanotubes is their interesting properties compared with carbon nanotubes. For example, resistance to oxidation at high temperatures, chemical and thermal stability higher rather than carbon nanotubes and conductivity in these nanotubes, unlike carbon nanotubes, does not depend on the type of nanotube chirality. The method used in this study is the density functional theory (DFT) at Becke3, Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) method and 6-31G* basis set for all the calculations. At first, the samples were simulated and then the optimized structure was obtained using Gaussian 09 software. The structural parameters of each nanotube were determined in 5 layers. Frequency calculations in order to extract the thermodynamic parameters and natural bond orbital (NBO) calculations have been performed to evaluate the electron density and electrostatic environment of different layers, energy levels and related parameters, such as ionization energy and electronic energy, bond gap energy and the share of hybrid orbitals of different layers.

Vibrational and spectral characterizations of 2-(6-oxo-2-thioxo tetrahydro pyrimidin-4(1h)-ylidene) hydrazine carboxamide (OTHHPYHC) were experimentally presented for the ground state using FTIR and FT-Raman and theoretically presented by density functional theory (DFT) using B3LYP correlation function with the basis set 6-31G(d,p). The geometrical parameters, energies, and wavenumbers have been obtained. The fundamental assignments were performed on the basis of total energy distribution. The first order hyperpolarizability (β0) and relative properties (β, α0, and Δα) were calculated using B3LYP/6-31G(d, p) method. Solidity of the molecule due to hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analysed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. The charge distribution and electron transfer from bonding to antibonding orbitals and electron density in the σ* and π* antibonding orbitals confirms interaction within the molecule. In addition to this, Mulliken population and HOMO–LUMO analysis have been used to support the information of structural properties.

The FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra for 1-bromo-2-chlorobenzene (1B2CB) have been recorded in the region 4000–100 cm−1 and compared with the harmonic vibrational frequencies calculated using HF/DFT (B3LYP) method by employing 6-31+G (d, p) and 6-311++G (d, p) basis set with appropriate scale factors. IR intensities and Raman activities are also calculated by HF and DFT (B3LYP) methods. Optimized geometries of the molecule have been interpreted and compared with the reported experimental values of some substituted benzene. The experimental geometrical parameters show satisfactory agreement with the theoretical prediction from HF and DFT. The scaled vibrational frequencies at B3LYP/6-311++G (d, p) seem to coincide with the experimentally observed values with acceptable deviations. The theoretical spectrograms (IR and Raman) have been constructed and compared with the experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. Some of the vibrational frequencies of the benzene are affected upon profusely with the halogen substitutions in comparison to benzene, and these differences are interpreted.

The optimized molecular structures and vibrational frequencies and also gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO)1H and13C NMR shift values of benzoylcholine chloride [(2-benzoyloxyethyl) trimethyl ammonium chloride] have been calculated using density functional theory (B3LYP) method with 6-31++G(d) basis set. The comparison of the experimental and calculated infrared (IR), Raman, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra has indicated that the experimental spectra are formed from the superposition of the spectra of two lowest energy conformers of the compound. So, it was concluded that the compound simultaneously exists in two optimized conformers in the ground state. Also the natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis has supported the simultaneous exiting of two conformers in the ground state. The calculated optimized geometric parameters (bond lengths and bond angles) and vibrational frequencies for both the lowest energy conformers were seen to be in a well agreement with the corresponding experimental data.

Hydrazide-Hydrazone compounds are key species for a range of bioactivities. The first complete density functional theoretical study of Phenoxyacetohydrazide(PAH) is reported. The normal mode frequencies, intensities and the corresponding vibrational assignments were calculated using the GAUSSIAN 09W set of quantum chemistry codes at the DFT/B3LYP levels of theory using the 6-311++G** basis set. Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions has been probed using NBO analysis. 1H and 13C NMR spectra have been analysed and the chemical shifts were calculated using the gauge independent atomic orbital(GIAO) method. The theoretical UV-Vis spectrum and the electronic properties, such as HOMO(Highest occupied molecular orbital) and LUMO (Lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) were performed by time dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT) approach.

The effect of different electronic and structural nitrogen donors (L) on the N ( ax )- Mn - O properties in the high valent manganese-oxo meso-tetraphenylporphyrin intermediate is investigated by the density functional B3LYP method with 6-31g* basis set. The geometric structures, frontier molecular orbitals, thermodynamic parameters and physical properties such as chemical potential and chemical hardness of [( TPP )( L ) MnO ]+ complexes in the gas phase as well as water solution are calculated. Our theoretical results confirm that the Mn - O distances in [( TPP )( L ) MnO ]+ species decrease by replacing imidazoles with pyridines, amins as well as electron-poor and hindered nitrogen donors resulting from extending the Mn – N ( ax ) bonds. These results are supported by vibrational frequencies, atoms in molecules (AIM) and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. It is worth mentioning that the co-catalytic activity trend of different nitrogen donors observed experimentally in the presence of title Mn porphyrin is consistent with the calculated Mn – N ( ax ) and Mn – O bond lengths in this work.

We systematically investigate growth patterns of small silver clusters, Agn (n ≤ 10), using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), considering Ag2, Ag3, and Ag4 as basic building units. Nearest-neighbor distances increase gradually with increasing n. Compared with an earlier study, where the clusters were developed by adding one atom at a time, the clusters derived in this investigation had considerably higher computed binding energies, confirming increased stability and suggesting possible growth patterns using these basic units. We used TDDFT methods to simulate the ultraviolet–visible spectra of the silver clusters, which are in good agreement with the reported experimental absorption spectrum of Ag nanoparticles. Our study indicates that the clusters formed with units of Ag3 tend to form more reactive clusters, particularly if an odd number of atoms is involved. Further, the higher level of computations employed gives better insight into the process of particle growth. The disproportionation energies of clusters built using this scheme are compared with those built one atom at a time. Mulliken population analysis of the distributions indicates the presence of polarities among the atoms in some of the cluster isomers, suggesting sites of increased activity. In addition, patterns established for the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), and HOMO–LUMO energy gaps may be used to model stable clusters with modified optoelectrical properties.
