Theoretical study of metal borides stability
We have recently identified metal-sandwich MS crystal structures and shown with ab initio calculations that the MS lithium monoboride phases are favored over the known stoichiometric ones under hydrostatic pressure Phys. Rev. B 73, 180501 R 2006 . According to previous studies synthesized lithium monoboride LiBy tends to be boron deficient y=0.8–1.0 , however, the mechanism leading to this phen...
متن کاملAb initio Study of Simple Mg-Ene Reactions of Propenyl Magnesium Halides and Ethylene (Type-I Intermolecular Reaction)
The insertion of an olefinic C=C bond into a metal-carbon bond is of potential interest as a preparativeroute to new products and as results of C-C coupling reactions to organic compounds. The allyl compoundsof Mg, react with an olefin by inversion of the allyl group via a six center transition state. These precyclicreactions may be one of the most important classes of organic reactions. The re...

متن کاملAB Initio Calculations of NMR Spectra for H20114C9N4 As A New Nanosemiconductor Molecule
BCN compounds have been researched theoretically and experimentally widely. In this paper, weintroduce the theoretical prediction of ternary B-C-N compounds. NMR spectroscopy was employedextensively to study these ternary nanostructures. We discuss the utilization of chemical shiftinformation as well as ab initio calculations of nuclear shielding for H20134C9N4 structuredetermination. We calcul...
متن کاملConformational analysis of N- and C-terminally protected tripeptide model glycyl-isoleucine-glycyl: An ab initio and DFT study
An ab initio and density functional theory (DFT) study about conformational analysis of tripeptide model HCO−GLY−L−ILE−GLY−NH2 is presented. The tripeptide was scanned about initial, central, and final residues, separately while for every scanning procedure the two other residues had been kept in the β conformation and side chain (SC) dihedral angles were maintained on the gauche− (g‾) state (χ...
