Two new stable Volleyballenes, the Y20C60 and La20C60 molecular clusters, are proposed on the basis of first-principles density functional theory. In conjunction with recent findings for the scandium system, these findings establish Volleyballene M20C60 molecules as a general class of stable molecules within the fullerene family. Both Y20C60 and La20C60 molecules have Th point group symmetries ...

In this paper, the effect of halogen compounds on tetrahedrozoline with nanosized fullerene was investigated. First, the structures of Tetrahydrozoline on a fully vectorized nanoclay were optimized with halogen compounds on carbon 69 (R-X: X = F, Cl, Br; R = C60-Tetrahydrozoline-C69-). Then orbital calculations were performed using NBO technique, and structural parameters and bipolar moments of...

Bei Betrachtung der geometrischen und elektronischen Struktur des Tris(pentafluorethyl)silanids erscheint das Anion auf den ersten Blick als Lewis-Base. Quantenmechanischen Rechnungen zufolge liegen die HOMO- LUMO-Energien von Perfluoralkylsilaniden deutlich niedriger nicht fluorierter Derivate. Dies hat eine geringere Lewis-Basizität zugleich erhöhte Lewis-Acidität [Si(C2F5)3]−-Ions zur Folge....

This paper discusses the fundamental features of the dielectric-dependent screened exchange potential approach for organic molecules and photocell materials. The energy difference (gap) between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) is a key factor when designing organic photocell materials. The magnitude of this energy gap strongly depe...

In this paper,N-(2-Fluorophenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-4-amine (C12H16FNO2) optimized geometries and frequencies of the stationary point and energies in the ground state using DFT (B3LYP) methods with 6-311Gbasis set. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies also confirmed that the charge transfer occurred within the molecule. Bond length and bond angles values forC12H16FNO2 were calculated by u...

The morpholinium cation based ionic liquids are designed to evaluate the thermophysical, chemical reactivity, and biological activity. To estimate and design the bioactive ILs, propionate and trihalopropanoate were considered under theoretical study by Density Functional Theory (DFT). To make effect of halogens atom on anion, propionate, trifluro propionate, trichloro propionate, and tribromo p...

In this work, the theoretical studies on molecular structure are presented for 2-Acetyl-5-chloro-thiophene thiosemicarbazone and its Ni(II) Zn(II) complexes. The optimized geometry fundamental vibrational frequency values have been investigated with help of DFT/B3LYP method using 6-31G(d,p) basis set they found to be in agreement experimental values. Additionally, frontier orbital energies (HOM...

Chemical stabilities of six low-energy isomers of C24 derived from global-minimum search are investigated. The six isomers include one classical fullerene (isomer 1) whose cage is composed of only five- and six-membered rings (56-MRs), three nonclassical fullerene structures whose cages contain at least one four-membered ring (4-MR), one plate, and one monocyclic ring. Chemical and electronic p...
