[ 1 ] - Theoretical study of tetrahedrane derivatives

Tetrahedrane is most strained and the smallest cage compound. It attracts organic chemists because ofits unusual bonding nature and highly symmetrical structure. However, many efforts to isolate theparent tetrahedrane have been unsuccessful because of the high reactivity and very short lifetimecaused by the strain in this molecule. Modeling of molecules for determination of structuralproperties...

[ 2 ] - DFT Study of 1H-tetrazolyl derivatives of tetrahedrane

Tetrazole-containing compounds have been the subject of much recent research because of theirpotential as high energy density materials (HEDMs). In this work, theoretical studies on the 1Htetrazolylderivatives of tetrahedrane were done at the density functional theory (DFT) method withthe 6-31G(d) basis set without any symmetrical restrictions in order to find the structural andenergetically pr...

[ 3 ] - Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) Study of (5H-tetrazol-1-yl)(triphenylphosphine)gold [Au(tetz)(PPh3)]

In this research work, we studied theoretically the structural properties of (5H-tetrazol-1-yl)(triphenylphosphine)gold or [Au(tetz)(PPh3)] by density functional theory (DFT) method at LANL2DZ level. All calculations were performed at 298.15 K and 1 atmosphere. Firstly, the bond lengths, bond angles, dihedral angles and natural charge density on atoms of the compound were calculated. The depend...

[ 4 ] - DFT Study of the Six-Membered Heterocyclic SinN6-nHn (n = 0-6): Stability and Aromaticity

One main group of organic chemistry is related to the aromatic compounds. In the present work, we replaced the CH group of benzene by silicon and nitrogen analogues. Then, Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out for six-membered heterocyclic Si-N aromatic rings. Full geometry optimizations were performed in gas-phase, and at B3LYP level using 6-311++G(d,p) and CBSB7 basis ...
