In this study explosive substance [2.4.6] three Nitro Toluene (TNT) was attached with nanostructures of fullerene (C24) and boron nitride nano-cages (B12N12). After that using B3LYP (Becke, three-parameter, Lee-Yang-Parr), a method from density functional theory (DFT), thermodynamic parameters of TNT with foregoing nanostructures, in different conditions of temperature, were computed. To this a...

Thermodynamic expressions are derived for the system relative Gibbs free energy, and the relative Gibbs free energy per bubble, for all possible equilibrium bubble states that can form in a soft slightly rigid material, initially supersaturated with a dissolved inert gas (N(2)). While the thermodynamic manipulations are exact, the final expressions are approximate, due to an approximation made ...

Ab initio and DFT methods have been used to study the seven tautomeric forms of 5-methylcytosine molecule.The related tautomer in gas phase have been studied at HF/6-31G, HF/6-31G* and B3LYP/6-31G* levels oftheory. The structures,enthalpies,entropies,Gibbs free energies,relative tautomerization energies of tautomersand tautomeric equilibrium constants were compared and analyzed along with full ...

In conventional well-known derivation methods for the adaptive Thouless-Anderson-Palmer (TAP) free energy, special assumptions that are difficult to mathematically justify except in some mean-field models, must be made. Here, we present a new adaptive TAP free energy derivation method. Using this derivation technique, without any special assumptions, the adaptive TAP free energy can be simply o...

to improve drug selectivity toward target cells, one interesting approach for drug delivery is to use polymer nanoparticles. a two-layered oniom becke3- lyp: uff calculation was carried out to study the structural and thermodynamic properties of the interaction between acetamide derivatives and the pca-peg-pca copolymers. the interaction enthalpies and the gibbs free energies between acetamide ...

Mutations that lead to drug resistance limit the efficacy of antibiotics, antiviral drugs, targeted cancer therapies, and other treatments. Accurately calculating protein–drug binding affinity changes upon mutations in target is high interest as this can yield a better understanding into how such drive drug-resistance, especially when mutation question does not directly interfere with drug. The...

mehg and total mercury concentrations were determined in the muscle tissues of four fish species (cyprinus carpio, rutilus frisii, carassius auratus and esox lucius) from anzali wetland (guilan, iran). fish with the highest amount of mehg was selected to determine the thermodynamic parameters of mehg extraction. the extractions process was performed in the range of temperatures 331.15 to 367.15...

Palladium (II) coordination complexes catalyze the reaction of alcohols with ketones to yield ethers. During the catalytic cycle, the alcohol adds selectively to the β-carbon (anti-Markovnikov). In this work, mechanism and kinetics for the reaction of methanol with methyl vinyl ketone (MVK), being catalyzed by Pd, has been theoretically investigated in detail. Using quantum mechanical approach,...
