Theoretical Investigation on the Absorption and Emission Properties of the Three Isomers of Bis（thiocyanato）（2,2^1-bipyridyl）platinum（ll）

This paper presents a Density Functional or Time Dependent Density Functional （DFT/TDDFT） study of the molecular and electronic structures, optical absorption and emission spectra of three linkage isomers： bis（isothiocyanato-S）（2,2^1-bipyridyl） platinum（II） （[Pt（SCN）2（bpy）]）, （isothiocyanato-S）（thiocyanato-N）-（2,2^1-bipy- ridyl） platinum（II） （[Pt（SCN）（NCS）（bpy）]）, and bis（thiocyanato-N）（2,2^1）-bipyridyl）platinum（II） （[Pt（NCS）2（bpy）]）, in which different coordination ligands based on the N- and S-coordination of the thiocyanato ligands control the luminescent color. The electronic structures were studied using the B3LYP functional. Optimized geometries Were compared to the experimentally observed structures. TDDFT calculation was carded out to investigate the excited singlet and triplet states. Calculations have been performed both in vacuo and in solvents, using a polarized continuum model （PCM） to account for solute-solvent interactions. Inclusion of the solvent led to a significant energy change, and as a consequence, the computed spectrum calculated in the presence of the solvent was in good agree- ment with the experimental determinations. The first two absorptions were found to originate from mixed plati- num-SCN （or NSC） to bipyridyl-n＊ transitions rather than pure metal-to-ligand-charge-transfer （MLCT） transitions, whereas the higher-energy bands arose from intraligand n→π＊ transitions. The stretching frequencies of C≡N have been calculated both in the ground and excited states, which are relative to the charge transition during the excitation. In addition, different sizes of basis sets were also discussed in this paper.     

Studies on the Structures and Spectra of Benzothiophene Oligomers

Theoretical studies on a series of oligobenzothiophenes were carded out with the AM 1 and DFT methods. Based on B3LYP/6-31G（D） optimized geometries, the electronic spectra, IR spectra and NMR spectra of the oligomers were calculated by INDO/CIS, AM1 and B3LYP/6-31G（D） methods, respectively. The energy gaps decrease, and the absorption in elec- tronic spectra exhibits a red-shift as polymerization increases. The IR frequencies are little affected by the polymerization and substituents. The ^13C chemical shifts are changed to be upfield since the electron-donating groups increase the electron density of carbon atoms but remain unchanged with the increase of polymerization.

Geometry,Electronic Structure,and Related Properties of Dye Sensitizer： 3,4-bis[1- （carboxymethyl）-3-indolyl]- 1 H-pyrrole-2,5-dione

The geometry, electronic structure, polarizability and hyperpolarizability of dye sensitizer 3,4-bis[1-（carboxymethyl）-3-indolyl]-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione （BIMCOOH） were studied using density functional theory （DFT） with hybrid functional B3LYP, and the electronic absorption spectra were investigated using semi-empirical quantum chemical method ZINDO-1 and time-dependent DFT （TDDFT）. The results of natural bond orbital suggest that the natural charges of the dione, indole, and acetic groups are about 0.15e, -0.29e, and 0.44e, respectively. The calculated isotropic polarizability, polarizability anisotropy invariant and hyperpolarizability are 305.4, 188.3, and 1155.4 a.u., respectively. The electronic absorption spectral features in visible and near-UV region were assigned to the π→π^＊ transition due to the qualitative agreement between the experiment and the TDDFT calculations, and the transitions of the excited states 9-11 related to photoinduced intramolecular charge transfer processes. The analysis of electronic structure and UV-Vis absorption indicates that the indole groups primarily contributed sensitization of photo-to-currency conversion processes, and the interracial electron transfer between semiconductor TiO2 electrode and dye sensitizer BIMCOOH are electron injection processes from excited states of the dyes to the semiconductor conduction band.     

Theoretical Study on the High Energy Density Compound Hexanitrohexaazatricyclotetradecanedifuroxan

Density functional theory （DFT） has been employed to study the molecular geometries, electronic structures, infrared （IR） spectra, and thermodynamic properties of the high energy density compound hexanitrohexaazatricyclotetradecanedifuroxan （HHTTD） at the B3LYP/6-31G^＊＊ level of theory. The calculated results show that there are four conformational isomers （α, β, γ and δ） for HHTTD, and the relative stabilities of four conformers were assessed based on the calculated total energies and the energy-gaps between the frontier molecular orbitals. The computed harmonic vibrational frequencies are in reasonable agreement with the available experimental data. Thermodynamic properties derived from the IR spectra on the basis of statistical thermodynamic principles are linearly correlated with the temperature. Detonation performances were evaluated by using the Kamlet-Jacobs equations based on the calculated densities and heats of formation. It was found that four HHTTD isomers with the predicted densities of ca. 2 g·cm^-3, detonation velocities near 10 km·s^-1, and detonation pressures over 45 GPa, may be novel potential candidates of high energy density materials （HEDM）. These results may provide basic information for the molecular design of HEDM.

The structures of 2,7＇-（ethylene）-bis-8-hydroxyquinoline and its derivatives were optimized at the ground states using ab initio HF and B3LYP methods.

The calculated results of luminescence originate from the electronic transition from the hydroxphenol ring of 8-hydroxyquinoline A to the pyridine ring of 8-hydroxyquinoline B. Their luminescence wave bands can be tuned by different substituents on the ligand of 8-hydroxyquinoline.
