Theoretical Study of the Molecular Electrostatic Potential of C_(50)

1 INTRODUCTION All fullerenes made so far obey the isolated pentagon (IPR)[1], which governs the stability of fullerenes comprising hexagons and exact 12 pen- tagons. Smaller fullerenes, which violate the IPR, are predicted to have high instability and especially difficult isolation due to their condensed pentagons and increased strain. The production of smaller fullerene C36 has been reported[2]. However, the definite characterization of a C36-based solid is in doubt. Moreover, variou…     

DFT Studies on Non-IPR C_(68) and Endohedral Fullerene Sc_3N@C_(68)

The structures and spectra of 20 possible isomers of C78(CH2)3 have been studied by using AM1,INDO/CIS and DFT methods. The results show that the most stable isomer is 1,2,3,4,5,6-C78(CH2)3 (A) with annulene structures,where three -CH2 groups are added to the 6/6 bonds located at the same hexagon passed by the shortest axis of C78 (C2v). Compared with that of C78 (C2v),the first absorption in the electronic spectrum of C78(CH2)3 (A) is blue-shifted because of its wider LUMO-HOMO energy gap. While the IR frequencies of the C–C bonds on the carbon cage are red-shifted owing to the formation of annulene structures and the extension of the conjugated system. The chemical shifts of the carbon atoms in 13C NMR spectra are moved upfield upon the addition.

The response of selected isomers of B80 buckyball toward NH3 adsorption: a density functional theory investigation

Density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) and B3LYP/6-31+G(d) levels were carried out for the adsorption of NH₃ on three symmetric isomers of B₈₀ {C ₁, T _h, I _h}. To investigate the binding features of B₈₀ isomers with NH₃, different studies including the structural and electronic parameters, the ¹⁴N electric field gradient tensors and the atoms in molecules (AIM) properties were considered. The calculated parameters by these investigations can be used as powerful tools to find out some of the unknown aspects of electronic structures of the boron buckyball and its isomers. According to previous studies, boron buckyball as an amphoteric and a hard molecule has two distinct reactive sites defined as cap and frame which act as an acid and a base, respectively. Regarding the obtained results in this study, all the isomers had the same exposure when NH₃ molecule reacted with the external wall of B₈₀. For instance, the stability of N–B bond in the cap site was significantly more than the stability of N–B bond in the frame. Moreover, the adsorption of NH₃ on frame site showed a considerable reduction in HOMO–LUMO energy gap. According to AIM theory, an electrostatic nature was observed for N–B interaction. Concerning the selected isomers of buckyball, the capability of the NH₃–B₈₀ complexes to localize electron at the N–B bond critical points depend on the reaction sites significantly. In general, ¹⁴N nuclear quadruple coupling constants and asymmetry parameter reveal a remarkable effect of NH₃ adsorption on electronic structure of the B₈₀.     

C24和B12N12团簇的结构与稳定性

C80(Ⅰ,Ⅱ) and Sc2@C80(Ⅰ-Ⅲ):Production,Isolation and Spectrometric Studies

C₈₀ has seven structural isomers satisfying the isolated pentagon rule (IPR)^[1],however,only one isomer of C₈₀(D₂) was isolated and studied so far^[2]. In this study, we report the first successful isolation of multi-isomers of C₈₀ and C₈₀-based endohedral metallofullerenes. The new species were characterized by UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, soot-extraction method, chromatographic retention time data and ¹³C NMR spectrometry (for C₈₀(Ⅱ)). It is suggested that C₈₀(Ⅱ) has a D_5d symmetry by the ¹³C NMR pattern (3×20; 2×10) and its long retention time in 5PYE column. For the three isomers of Sc₂@C₈₀,isomer Ⅲ has an extremely long retention time which suggests a D5d symmetry. On the contrary, isomer I has a very short retention time in 5PYE columnso it may have the most spherical I_h symmetry. Theoretically, Sc₂@C₈₀(I_h) is expected to have novel super-conductivity property as the A₃C₆₀ (A=K, Rb).     

A quantum chemical study of three isomers of N20

Ab initio molecular orbital (MP2) and density functional theory (B3LYP) calculations using different basis sets have been employed to study the structures, energetics and vibrational frequencies of the large homonuclear polynitrogen compound, N₂₀. In the present study, three distinct forms were found to represent local minima on the potential energy surface. They are the fullerene-type cage form of I_h symmetry, a corannulene-like bowl form of C_5v symmetry, and a ring isomer with D₅ symmetry of which the cage form turns out to be the highest energy form. Both the bowl and ring forms are calculated to be more stable than the cage form by about 200 kcal/mol. The molecular properties calculated for these isomers may serve as valuable predictions for future experimental searches for new high energy density materials (HEDM).     

Computational study of the Stone-Wales transformation in C36

The transition of the D6h neutral and charged isomers to D2d isomers of C36 via Stone-Wales transformation has been studied by means of the hybrid density functional method (B3LYP). The results show that the transition state (TS) and reaction pathway could be identified for the rearrangement from C36-D6h to C36-D2d on the potential energy surface. We found that the neutral and charged transition states all have C2 molecular point group symmetry with the two migrating carbon atoms remaining close to the fullerene surface. The other kind of possible TS with a carbene-like structure along the stepwise reaction path does not exist as a stationary point with the density functionals utilized here. The classical barriers are 6.23 eV through the neutral TS, 6.37 eV through the anionic TS, and 6.29 eV through the cationic TS at the B3LYP/6-31G level of theory.     

Low-lying isomers of the B9(-) boron cluster: the planar molecular wheel versus three-dimensional structures

The B(9)(-) cluster was found previously to be an unprecedented molecular wheel containing an octacoordinate planar boron with D(8h) symmetry in a combined photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and theoretical study [H. J. Zhai et al., Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 42, 6004 (2003)]. However, the PES spectra of B(9)(-) exhibit minor features that cannot be explained by the global minimum D(8h) structure, suggesting possible contributions from low-lying isomers at finite temperatures. Here we present Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics with simulated annealing simulations to fully explore the potential energy surface of B(9)(-) and search for low-lying isomers that may account for the minor PES features. We performed density functional theory (DFT) calculations with different exchange-correlation functionals and ab initio calculations at various levels of theory with different basis sets. Two three-dimensional low-lying isomers were found, both of C(s) symmetry, 6.29 (C(s)-2) and 10.23 (C(s)-1) kcal/mol higher in energy than the D(8h) structure at the highest CCSD(T) level of theory. Calculated detachment transitions from the C(s)-2 isomer are in excellent agreement with the minor features observed in the PES spectra of B(9)(-). The B(9)(-) cluster proves to be a challenge for most DFT methods and the calculated relative energies strongly depend on the exchange-correlation functionals, providing an excellent example for evaluating the accuracies of various DFT methods.
