The analysis of the electronic-structure changes along IRC paths for double-proton-transfer reactions in the formamide dimer (R1), formamide-thioformamide system (R2), and the thioformamide dimer (R3) was performed based on the extended-transition-state natural orbitals for chemical valence (ETS-NOCV) partitioning of the reaction force, considering the intra-fragments strain and the inter-fragm...

In this research at the first, xylometazoline hydrochloride drug (XY) and its fullerene connected form (FXY) were optimized. Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) calculations for these compounds were carried out at the B3LYP/6-31G* quantum chemistry level, in the gas phase and the liquid phase. These calculations can be performed at different accuracy levels depending on the aim of the theoretical study....

The collagen protein provides tensile strength to the extracellular matrix in addition to localising cells, proteins and protein cofactors. Collagen is susceptible to a build up of glycation modifications as a result of an exceptionally long half-life. Glucosepane is a collagen cross-linking advanced glycation end product; the structural and mechanical effects of glucosepane are still the subje...

We have examined the occurrence of discontinuities in bond-breaking potential energy surfaces given by local correlation methods based on the Pulay-Saebø orbital domain approach. Our analysis focuses on three prototypical dissociating systems: the C-F bond in fluoromethane, the C-C bond in singlet, ketene, and the central C-C bond in propadienone. We find that such discontinuities do not occur ...

Ionization of a molecule can greatly alter its electronic structure as well as its geometric structure. In this collaborative experimental and theoretical study, we examined variance in hyperconjugation upon ionization of diethyl ether (DEE) and diethyl sulfide (DES). We obtained the experimental gas phase vibrational spectra of DEE, DES, DEE(+), DES(+), DEE(+)-Ar, and DES(+)-Ar in the wavenumb...

Molecular orbital calculations have been carried out on 2-fluorotetrahydropyran and 2-chlorotetrahydropyran as models for examining the anomeric effect in glycosyl halides. The calculated population of chair conformers depends on the solvent and for the axial form of fluoro derivative decreases from 90.6 % in dioxan to 37.0 % in water. For chloro derivative the dependence is less pronounced; th...

Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are currently attracting widespread academic and commercial interest for the conversion of sunlight into electricity because of their low cost and high DSSCs are similar to natural photosynthesis in the initial processes involving in light-harvesting and charge separation. To gain a better understanding of the role of the sensitizer, particularly of its electr...
