in present study, the density functional theory (dft-b3lyp) method with svp basis set was used for optimizing and studying the electronic structural properties of cis and trans isomers of bis-(5-nitro-2h-tetrazolato-n2) tetraammine cobalt (iii) perchlorate (bncp) as powerful explosives at 298.15 k temperature and 1 atmosphere pressure. and also, natural bond orbital (nbo) population analysis an...

We report the synthesis of penicillamine-protected Ag20 nanoclusters (NCs), with properties of high monodispersity, red fluorescence and water solubility. Full characterization of the Ag20 NCs is addressed, along with first-principles optimization calculations, revealing the chemical composition and structure of the as-prepared Ag NCs within a molecular formula [Ag20(DPA)18-H]-. Moreover, natur...

In this research, we report the results of DFT calculations using xc-hybrid functional, B3LYP and employ NBO interpretation to investigate the stereoelectronic effects. Electrostatic and steric impacts on the conformational properties of 1,2-difluorodiazene (1), 1,2-dichlorodiazene (2) and 1,2-dibromodiazene (3) are also studied. Factors determining the thermodynamically stable molecular struct...

Nb-containing polyoxometalates (POMs) of the Wells-Dawson class inhibit HIV-1 protease (HIV-1P) by a new mode based on kinetics, binding, and molecular modeling studies. Reaction of alpha(1)-K(9)Li[P(2)W(17)O(61)] or alpha(2)-K(10)[P(2)W(17)O(61)] with aqueous H(2)O(2) solutions of K(7)H[Nb(6)O(19)] followed by treatment with HCl and KCl and then crystallization affords the complexes alpha(1)-K...

The brain's anti-oxidant response to highly elevated oxygen (O2) partial pressures is poorly understood. In this study we hypothesized that hyperbaric O2 (HBO2) would stimulate superoxide dismutase (SOD) transcription in the oxidative stress-sensitive rat hippocampus and measured the time course and extent of the changes in hippocampal mRNA for all three SOD isoforms and total SOD enzyme activi...

Inelastic light scattering has been utilized for examining the structure of glass and its relaxation. However, the quasi-elastic-light-scattering (QLS) phenomenon has not been addressed in much detail. In this study, we observed pronounced QLS-intensity variations in two temperature domains-supercooled liquid (SCL) state (α-relaxation regime) and below the glass-transition temperature (β-relaxa...

In this review, various studies on the Li depth profiles of metal/electrolyte/metal capacitors and batteries Au/LCO/LATP/Pt, LCO/LiPON/Si, LMO/LiPON/NbO with different metal electrodes at both sides (by bias; LCO =LiCoO2, LATP =Li3.1Al0.86Ti1.14Ge1.27P1.73O12, LMO =LiMn2O4, NbO = Nb2O5) using in-situ reflection ERD (ERD) technique 9MeV O+4 ion beam transmission (TERD) 5MeV He+2 beam, respective...

The structure of diglycolic anhydride (1,4-dioxane-2,6-dione; DGAn) isolated in a low-temperature argon matrix at 10 K was studied by means of FTIR spectroscopy. Interpretation of the experimental vibrational spectrum was assisted by theoretical calculations at the DFT(B3LYP)/aug-cc-pVTZ level. The optimized structure of the isolated DGAn molecule adopts an envelope conformation, which was foun...
