In the continuous quest for improving TD-DFT methodologies as a tool to predict the photophysical features of solvated chromophores, we investigate two model regioisomers based on the 1,2,3-triazole moiety. Starting from their experimental absorption and emission spectra, key energy differences highlighting the main trends between the two isomers are extracted and used to gauge the accuracy of ...

Naphthalene diimides (NDIs) form emissive ground-state charge-transfer (CT) complexes with various electron rich aromatic solvents like benzene, o-xylene and mesitylene. TD-DFT calculation of the complexes suggests CT interaction and accounts for the observed ground-state changes.

Dynamic chirality of iminoresorcin[4]arenes that originates from regioselective and diastereoselective keto-enol tautomerisation was switched by non-covalent interactions with achiral molecules, as demonstrated by experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra supported by TD DFT calculations.

Derivatives of thiocarbohydrazone studied so far have shown great biological activity such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer. Most these compounds are bis-substituted derivatives, while monothiocarbohydrazones much less investigated. Еighteen were synthesized subjected to physicochemical characterization in order facilitate the examination their potential application future studies....

This study is aimed to shed light on the electronic absorption and emission spectra of DBDMA (2-(1-(difluoroboraneyl)-1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-yl)-2-(1-methylquinoxalin-2-ylidene) acetonitrile) in different solvents. Both types were obtained theoretically produced experimentally The photostability dye was tested, its energy transfer behavior presence oxygen hydrated copper sulfate quenchers invest...

A series of tetraphenylporphyrins appended at the β-pyrrolic position with an ethynylphenylene- or ethynylpyridine-substituent have been subjected to spectroscopic and density functional theory (DFT) analyses. The mean absolute deviation between corresponding experimental and DFT-derived vibrational spectra is up to 10.2 cm(-1), suggesting that the DFT B3LYP/6-31G(d) method provides an accurate...
