Gas-phase thermochemical properties of sulfine (CH2SO) and the potential energy surface of its protonation process were studied by the density functional method employing different
exchange-correlation potentials. All calculations showed that the most stable protonated isomer is planar with the proton
bonded to the oxygen atom in a trans arrangement of the skeleton. Three transition states were located that allow interconversion
between the different isomers. Hardnesses and Fukui indices were calculated to follow the reactivity trend along the protonation
path and to explain the preference for a particular protonation site on neutral sulfine. Proton affinity, gas-phase basicity
and heat of formation values, obtained for the first time fully quantum mechanically, agree well with those derived by a recent
mass spectrometry experimental study. Good agreement between density functional theory and previous high-level theoretical
and experimental data was also found for the heat of formation of sulfine and its most stable protonated form.

With the aim of exploiting the use of organometallic species for the efficient modification of proteins through C-atom transfer, the gold-mediated cysteine arylation through a reductive elimination process occurring from the reaction of cyclometalated AuIII C^N complexes with a zinc finger peptide (Cys2His2 type) is here reported. Among the four selected AuIII cyclometalated compounds, the [Au(CCON)Cl2] complex featuring the 2-benzoylpyridine (CCON) scaffold was identified as the most prone to reductive elimination and Cys arylation in buffered aqueous solution (pH 7.4) at 37 °C by high-resolution LC electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. DFT and quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) studies permitted to propose a mechanism for the title reaction that is in line with the experimental results. Overall, the results provide new insights into the reactivity of cytotoxic organogold compounds with biologically important zinc finger domains and identify initial structure–activity relationships to enable AuIII-catalyzed reductive elimination in aqueous media. 相似文献

By an application to small silicon clusters Si
N
(with N = 4,5,7,10) it is shown that truly global geometry optimization on an ab initio or density functional theory level can be achieved, at a computational cost of approximately
1–5 traditional local optimization runs (depending on cluster size). This extends global optimization from the limited area
of empirical potentials into the realm of ab initio quantum chemistry.

High-level ab initio electronic structure theories have been applied to investigate the detailed reaction mechanism of the
spin-forbidden reaction CH(2∏) + N2 → HCN + N(4S). The G2M(RCC) calculations provide accurate energies for the intermediates and transition states involved in the reaction,
whereas the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) method overestimates the stability of some intermediates by as much as about 10 kcal/mol. A few new structures have been
found for both the doublet and quartet electronic states, which are mainly involved in the dative pathways. However, due to
the higher energies of these structures, the dominant mechanism remains the one involving the C
2 intersystem-crossing step. The C
2 minima on the seam of crossing (MSX) structures and the spin-orbit coupling between the doublet and quartet electronic states
are rather close to those found in previous studies. Vibrational frequencies orthogonal to the normal of the seam which have
been applied in a separate publication to calculate the rate of the CH(2∏) + N2 → HCN + N(4S) reaction with a newly proposed nonadiabatic transition-state theory for spin-forbidden reactions have been calculated at
the MSX from first principles.

The reaction between triplet methylene and nitric oxide, producing the formaldiminoxy (CH2NO) radical, and the subsequent decomposition and isomerization reactions of CH2NO have been studied using ab␣initio quantum chemical techniques that include the Gaussian-2 (G2), CASSCF and CASPT2 methods.
Stationary points on the potential energy surfaces were located at MP2/6-31G(d) and CASSCF/cc-pVDZ levels of theory, while the electronic energies were determined using G2, G2(MP2), QCISD(T)/cc-pVTZ,
RCCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ and CASPT2/cc-pVTZ approaches. G2 is believed to be reliable at equilibrium geometries, but the determination
of certain transition state geometries and energies requires a MCSCF-based approach. The calculations suggest that CH2NO (2A′) forms in a barrierless reaction and could readily decompose to H+HCNO. A subsequent abstraction reaction then results in
H2+CNO. No molecular elimination channel was found. An alternative pathway is the formation of CH2ON, which readily isomerizes to CH2NO.

Ab initio calculations on the lowest singlet and triplet states of 2,2-disilylcyclopentane-1,3-diyl find that the singlet
lies well below the triplet. The C
2 singlet diradical is calculated to be a minimum on the potential energy surface with an enthalpic barrier to ring closure
of ΔH

298 = 13.5 kcal/mol at the CASPT2/6-31G* level of theory. The energy of the 1,3-divinyl-substituted singlet diradical is calculated
to be only 0.8 kcal/mol higher than that of 5,5-disilyl-1,3-divinylbicyclo[2.1.0]pentane at this level of theory, but the
transition state for their equilibration is computed to be 12.8 kcal/mol above the diradical in energy.

A method of solvation energy computation is proposed for ions and molecules in the environment of an ionic melt, based on
the approximation of the ionic melt as an ideal conductor. The method is used to compute equilibrium constants of some equilibria
in cryolite melt. Theoretically obtained results predict that aluminium is bound in tetrafluorocomplexes AlF4

The discrepancies between X-ray and integrated molecular orbital molecular mechanics computed geometries for Os(H)2Cl2(PiPr3)2 and Ir(H)2Cl(PtBu2 Ph)2 are explained by the inadequacy of the default molecular mechanics van der Waals radii for halogen elements. A simple procedure
is proposed for the calculation of corrected van der Waals radii, and the application of the corrected radius for chloride
is shown to improve substantially the results for the systems under test.

A technique for implementing the integrated molecular orbital and molecular mechanics (IMOMM) methodology developed by Maseras
and Morokuma that is used to perform combined quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) molecular dynamics simulations,
frequency calculations and simulations of macromolecules including explicit solvent is presented. Although the IMOMM methodology
is generalized to any coordinate system, the implementation first described by Maseras and Morokuma requires that the QM and
MM gradients be transformed into internal coordinates before they are added together. This coordinate transformation can be
cumbersome for macromolecular systems and can become ill-defined during the course of a molecular dynamics simulation. We
describe an implementation of the IMOMM method in which the QM and MM gradients are combined in the cartesian coordinate system,
thereby avoiding potential problems associated with using the internal coordinate system. The implementation can be used to
perform combined QM/MM molecular dynamics simulations and frequency calculations within the IMOMM framework. Finally, we have
examined the applicability of thermochemical data derived from IMOMM framework. Finally, we have examined the applicability
of thermochemical data derived from IMOMM frequency calculations.

The stability of electrochemically formed NiF2 film in 1.0 M perchloric acid containing monovalent fluorides namely, NH4F, HF, NaF, KF and LiF, is investigated using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, atomic absorption spectroscopy and scanning
electron microscopy. In addition to direct dissolution of nickel and dissolution through the oxide layer, a new mode of dissolution
of NiF2 film as NiF3
− and NiF4
2− through complex formation is proposed. This process is significantly influenced by the alkali metal fluorides. On a comparative
basis the stability of NiF2 decreases in the order NH4F > HF > KF > LiF.

The effects of the amino acid side chains of the binding pocket of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) and of a water molecule on the
structure of the retinal Schiff base have been studied using Becke3LYP/6-31G* level of density functional theory. A model
protonated Schiff base structure including six conjugated double bonds and methyl substituents was optimized in the presence
of several amino acid side chains and of a water molecule, separately. The Schiff base structure was also calculated in the
form of a neutral species. At each optimized complex geometry the atomic charges of the model Schiff base were calculated
using Mulliken population analysis. In agreement with previously proposed counterion(s) of the protonated retinal Schiff base
in bR, the results show that Asp85 and Asp212, which are present in the form of negatively charged groups, have significantly large effects on the structure and electronic
configuration of both unprotonated and protonated model Schiff bases. The presence of a water molecule in the vicinity of
the Schiff base demonstrates significant effects which are comparable to those of aspartate groups. Other side chains studied
did not show any significant effect in this direction. Apart from the aspartate groups and the water molecule, in none of
the other complexes studied are the atomic charges and the bond alternation of the model Schiff base significantly influenced
by the presence of the neighboring amino acids.

Phosphorothioate DNAs, have emerged as a new class of potent drugs. They are obtained by the replacement of the anionic oxygens
of the phophodiester backbone by sulphur. A set of parameters has been developed for the FLEX force field implemented in JUMNA
10.0 to take into account the influence of sulphur on the structure of the DNA double helix. The consistency of our parameters
was tested by modelling a phosphorothioate oligomer namely d(GC)8. d(GC)8. Results, obtained on both R-pS and S-pS diastereoisomers, were compared to the phosphodiester counterpart and are in agreement with available experimental data.
Thus, our set of parameters seems suitable for further molecular modelling of other phosphorothioate oligomers.

We investigate, by means of classical and quantum mechanics, how isotopic substitution (H/D) affects the vibrational dynamics
of HCP. The analysis of periodic orbits, including the location of the principal families as well as saddle node bifurcations,
reveals a totally different picture for the phase-space resonance structure for HCP and DCP. While HCP is characterized by
a 1:2 resonance between the CP stretch and the bending mode, DCP shows a 1:2 resonance between the two stretching degrees
of freedom. Saddle node bifurcations, which are associated with large-amplitude motion of H/D moving from the C- to the P-end,
appear at considerably higher energies in DCP than in HCP. These results are in accord with exact quantum mechanical calculations
of the vibrational levels.

Two states of CO− which are expected to live longer than the well-known 2Π shape resonance are examined and the results obtained are compared with the analogous states of the isoelectronic N2
− system. The 4Σ− and 4Π states are found to be stable with respect to dissociation. The latter state is also stable with respect to single-electron
loss to its parent neutral state. The lifetime of this state is supposed to be long, but not necessarily long enough to allow
detection in a mass spectrometer.

The valence ionization spectrum of HCl is studied by symmetry-adapted-cluster configuration-interaction general-R and SD-R methods. The general-R method describes well the peak positions and intensities of seven satellite lines observed below the double ionization threshold.
The twinning shake-up states due to the (4σ)−1 state and the Rydberg states of HCl+ are correctly reproduced.

This work is related to the interaction of water with two platinum(II) complexes, [Pt(NH3)4]2+ (denoted 1) and trans-[Pt(OH)2(NH3)2] (denoted 2). We have considered two approaches of a water molecule to complexes 1 and 2 along the z-axis normal to the platinum(II) coordination plane: approach I, with the water oxygen oriented towards Pt, and approach II,
with one water hydrogen directed towards Pt. Calculations have been performed within a molecular mechanics method based upon
the interaction potentials proposed earlier by Claverie et al. and subsequently adjusted to results obtained with symmetry
– adapted perturbational theory as well as with supermolecule (up to second-order M?ller–Plesset, MP2) methods. We discuss
some possible simplifications of the potentials mentioned. The results relative to the hydration of Pt complexes 1 and 2 following
approach I or II are discussed and compared to recent (MP2) ab initio energy–distance curves that we have recently determined.
The MP2 calculations have shown that besides exchange–repulsion contributions, which are very similar in all hydrated complexes,
approach I is mainly governed by electrostatics, whereas for approach II both electrostatic and dispersion contributions are
important.

The influences of the reductant concentration of NaBH4 and the quantity of Pt loading on the active surface area and the sensitivity of the Pt/Nafion electrodes prepared by an
impregnation-reduction method in detecting oxygen were investigated in this study. The Pt/Nafion electrodes with a Pt loading
of 4.99 mg/cm2, obtained at 0.0107 M Pt(NH3)4Cl2 and 0.06 M NaBH4, show maximum sensitivities of 0.0528 A/ppm and 0.0538 A/ppm obtained in O2 concentration regions of 0–5000 and 5000–50 000 ppm, respectively. A sensing model was also proposed to illustrate the sensing
phenomenon.

Molecular mechanics calculations were performed with the JUMNA program on d(GCGTGOGTGCG) · d(CGCACTCACGC) where “O” is a
modified abasic site: 3-hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran. From energy minimizations, for intrahelical or extrahelical
positions of the unpaired thymine, various structures with different curvatures were obtained. Dynamical properties of this
abasic sequence were also investigated through the controlled studies of DNA bending. Poisson-Boltzmann calculations were
used to mimic the electrostatic effect of solvent on this sequence. The lowest energy structures show an acceptable agreement
with experimental data.
