to calculation non-bonded interaction of the [cocl6]3- complex embedded in nano ring, we focus on the single wall boron-nitride b18n18 nano ring. thus, the geometry of b18n18 nano ring has been optimized by b3lyp method with epr-ii (electron paramagnetic resonance) basis set and geometry of the [cocl6]3- complex has been optimized at b3lyp method with aldrich’s vtz basis set and stuttgart rsc 1...

The density functional theory (DFT) method combined with B3LYP and B3PW91 hybrid were utilized for geometrical optimization, vibrational frequencies electronic spectral study. levels of the time dependent-DFT 6–311+G(d, p) basis set have been used to determine highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) – lowest unoccupied (LUMO) energies, absorption wavelengths, properties (total energy gap) 4-(...

The ability for density functional theory with the B3LYP lanl2dz basis set to predict 1st (Wave 1) and 2nd 2) reductions of diazine ring in a series thirty-seven (37) 1,4-di-N-oxide quinoxaline-2-carboxamide derivatives dimethylformamide was examined. B3LYP/lanl2dz method had strong correlation low experimental potentials Wave 1 2, respectively. There are nine identifiable analogs based on simi...

Recent progress has been made in the reductive debromination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) by nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI). To better understand the mechanism of this reaction, seven selected BDE congeners and their anions were investigated at the density functional theory (DFT) level using four different methods, including B3LYP/6-31G(d), B3LYP/6-31+G(d), B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) and ...

The bond length alternation (BLA), the highest-occupied-lowest-unoccupied (HO-LU) orbital energy gap, and the corresponding excitation energy are determined for trans-polyacetylene (PA) and polyyne (PY) using density functional theory. Results from the Coulomb-attenuated CAM-B3LYP functional are compared with those from the conventional BHHLYP and B3LYP hybrid functionals. BLA values and HO-LU ...

In this paper, is calculated structural optimization and interactions on surface nanotubes (AlN,CNT) and phosgene. Based on the optimized ground state geometries using B3LYP/6-31G* method, the NBO analysis of donor-acceptor (bondanti bond) interactions revealed that the stabilizationenergies associated with the electronic delocalization.

This research is designed to further understand the effects of the novel drug MDMA on biologic receptor of DNA. The ultimate goal is to design drugs that have higher affinity with DNA. Understanding the physicochemical properties of the drug as well as the mechanism by which it interacts with DNA should ultimately enable the rational design of novel anticancer or antiviral drugs. Molecular mode...

Three new variants of the auxiliary-density-matrix method (ADMM) of Guidon, Hutter, and VandeVondele [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 6, 2348 (2010)] are presented with the common feature that they have a simplified constraint compared with the full orthonormality requirement of the earlier ADMM1 method. All ADMM variants are tested for accuracy and performance in all-electron B3LYP calculations with s...

We applied a test set of ligand dissociation enthalpies derived entirely from a unified experimental approach to evaluate the efficacy of various methods for modeling organometallic chemistry. This differs from most benchmarking studies, as it is common to evaluate theoretical methods by using more computationally expensive calculations to provide the "target" values. With an aim of presenting ...
