It was found that the NH3 and H20 molecules can be adsorbed on the Be atom of the tube sidewall with the adsorption energies of about 36.1 and 39.0 kcal/mol, respectively. Density of states analysis shows that the electronic properties of the BeONT are slightly changed after the adsorption processes. Substitution of a Be atom in the tube surface with a Ca atom increases the adsorption energies by about 7.4 and 14.7 kcal/mol for NH3 and H20, respectively. Unlike the pristine tube, the electronic properties of Ca-doped BeONT are sensitive to NH3 and H20 molecules. Also, the Ca-doped tube is much more sensitive to H20 molecule than NH3 one.展开更多

The structures and frequencies of Dinaphtho[2,3-b:2’,3’-d]thiophene-5,7,12,13-tetraone (DNTTRA) and its 36 derivatives containing azobenzene were calculated by using density functional theory B3LYP and M06-2X methods at 6-311++g(d, p) level, respectively. Besides, the atomic charges of natural bond orbitals (NBO) were analyzed. The frontier orbitals and electron absorption spectra of A-G5 molecule were calculated by TD-DFT (TD-B3LYP/6-311++g(d, p) and TD-M06-2X/6-311++g(d, p)). The NLO properties were calculated by effective finite field FF method and self-compiled program. The results show that 36 molecules of these six series are D-π-A-π-D structures. The third-order NLO coefficients γ (second-order hyperpolarizability) of the D series molecules are the largest among the six series, reaching 10<sup>7</sup> atomic units (10<sup><span style="color:#4F4F4F;font-family:-apple-system, " font-size:14px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;"="">-</span>33</sup> esu) of order of magnitude, showing good third-order NLO properties. Last, the third-order NLO properties of the azobenzene ring can be improved by introducing strong electron donor groups (e.g. -N(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> or -NHCH<sub>3</sub>) in the azobenzene ring, so that the third-order NLO materials with good performance can be obtained.展开更多

Crystals of 1 and 2 were grown by slow evaporation of methanol and ethyl acetate, respectively and their crystal structures were investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Geometric properties were calculated by the B3 LYP method of density functional theory（DFT） at the 6-31G＋（d） basis set to compare with the experimental data. Simulated properties were found in strong agreement with the experimental ones. Intermolecular forces have also been modeled in order to investigate the strength of packing and strong hydrogen bonding was observed in both compounds 1 and 2. Electronic properties such as Ionization Potential（IP）, Electron Affinities（EA） and coefficients of the highest occupied molecular orbital（HOMO） and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital（LUMO） of com- pounds 1 and 2 were simulated for the first time.展开更多

Mononuclear chelates, described as [Pd(X)(S,N,O- AcMet-Gly)]+, in which Pd(II) is coordinated by thioether, deprotonated amide nitrogen, carbonyl oxygen of me-thionine and X (AcMetGly or other ligands present in aqueous solution or in mobile phase solution), were detected 5 min after mixing AcMet-Gly with [Pd(H2O)4]2+ at room temperature using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The geometry of [Pd(H2O)(S,N,O-AcMet-Gly)]+ is optimized at density functional B3LYP/LanL2DZ level. The fused five- and six-membered chelate is responsible for cleavage of Met-Gly bond. This is the first time to provide a direct evidence for Pd(II)-mediated cleavage of dipeptides via external solvent attack.展开更多
