How computational methods and relativistic effects influence the study of chemical reactions involving Ru‐NO complexes?

Two treatments of relativistic effects, namely effective core potentials (ECP) and all‐electron scalar relativistic effects (DKH2), are used to obtain geometries and chemical reaction energies for a series of ruthenium complexes in B3LYP/def2‐TZVP calculations. Specifically, the reaction energies of reduction ( A ‐ F ), isomerization ( G‐I ), and Cl⁻ negative trans influence in relation to NH₃ ( J ‐ L ) are considered. The ECP and DKH2 approaches provided geometric parameters close to experimental data and the same ordering for energy changes of reactions A ‐ L . From geometries optimized with ECP, the electronic energies are also determined by means of the same ECP and basis set combined with the computational methods: MP2, M06, BP86, and its derivatives, so as B2PLYP, LC‐wPBE, and CCSD(T) (reference method). For reactions A ‐ I , B2PLYP provides the best agreement with CCSD(T) results. Additionally, B3LYP gave the smallest error for the energies of reactions J ‐ L . © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Spectral and computational chemistry studies for the optimization of geometry of dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes of some unsymmetrical Schiff bases as antimicrobial agent

Abstract

This analysis highlights the design, spectroscopic characterization and quantum mechanical calculation of some new dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes of some dibasic tetradentate Schiff bases. Ligands were derived from mono 5-bromosalicylaldehyde-orthophenylenediamine (^BrSal-OPD) and different 2-hydroxyketone derivatives. The characterization was performed by elemental analysis, FTIR, electronic, ¹H NMR and mass spectra, magnetic and molar conductance studies. Structure of the ligands and complexes were designed depending on experimental data and computational studies. According to all data, distorted octahedral geometry was proposed where oxygen atoms are in cis position. Prepared complexes exhibit moderate antimicrobial properties when evaluated against some pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated to search their biological action, for example, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity.     

Structural designing,spectral and computational studies of bioactive Schiff's base ligand and its transition metal complexes

Transition metal complexes of Mn(II) and Ni(II) have been synthesized with novel bioactive Schiff's base ligand. Schiff's base ligand i.e. benzoylacetone‐bis(2‐amino‐4‐methylbenzothioazole) has been synthesized via condensation reaction between 2‐amino‐4‐methylbenzothioazole and benzoylacetone in 2:1 ratio, respectively. Synthesized ligand has been characterized using elemental analysis, infra‐red, ¹H–NMR and mass spectroscopy techniques. Characterization of complexes was based on magnetic moment, molar conductance, elemental analysis, electronic spectra, infra‐red and EPR spectroscopic techniques. Molar conductance data suggest that metal complexes are non‐electrolytic in nature. Therefore, these complexes are formulated as [M(L)X₂], where M = Mn(II), Ni(II), L = Schiff's base ligand, X = Cl^?, CH₃COO^?, NO₃^?. Data of characterization study suggest octahedral geometry for Mn(II) and Ni(II) complexes. Geometry of metal complexes was also optimized with the help of computational study i.e. molecular modelling. Computational study also suggests octahedral geometry for complexes. Free ligand as well as its all metal complexes have been screened against the growth of pathogenic bacteria (E.coli, S.aureus) and fungi (C.albicans, C.krusei, C.parapsilosis, C.tropicalis) to assess their inhibition potential. The inhibition data revealed that metal complexes exhibit higher inhibition potential against the growth of bacteria and fungi microorganisms than free ligand.

Modelling sediment transport over partially non‐erodible bottoms

In‐depth‐averaged and cross‐section‐averaged morphodynamic models, based on explicit time integration, it may happen that the computed bed level becomes lower than the top level of a non‐erodible layer (e.g. concrete, bedrock or armoured layer). This is a standard pitfall, which has been addressed in different ways. In this paper, we present an original approach for avoiding computation of non‐physical bed levels, using an iterative procedure to correct the outward sediment fluxes. The procedure is shown to be computationally efficient while it achieves a high accuracy in terms of mass conservation. We compare our original approach with the existing Struiksma's method and with a reformulation of the problem in terms of mathematical optimization of a linear or nonlinear objective function under linear constraints. The new procedure has been incorporated into an existing finite volume morphodynamic model. It has been validated with several 1D benchmarks leading to configurations with sediment transport over non‐erodible bottom. The computation time has been verified not to increase by more than 15% compared with runs without non‐erodible bottom. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Crystallographic and computational study of a network composed of [ZnCl4]2− anions and triply protonated 4′‐functionalized terpyridine cations

We report herein the synthesis, crystallographic analysis and a study of the noncovalent interactions observed in the new 4′‐substituted terpyridine‐based derivative bis[4′‐(isoquinolin‐2‐ium‐4‐yl)‐2,2′:6′,2′′‐terpyridine‐1,1′′‐diium] tris[tetrachloridozincate(II)] monohydrate, (C₂₄H₁₉N₄)₂[ZnCl₄]₃·H₂O or (ITPH₃)₂[ZnCl₄]₃·H₂O, where (ITPH₃)³⁺ is the triply protonated cation derived from 4′‐(isoquinolin‐4‐yl)‐2,2′:6′,2′′‐terpyridine (ITP) [Granifo et al. (2016). Acta Cryst. C 72 , 932–938]. The (ITPH₃)³⁺ cation presents a number of interesting similarities and differences compared with its neutral ITP relative, mainly in the role fulfilled in the packing arrangement by the profuse set of D —H…A [D (donor) = C, N or O; A (acceptor) = O or Cl], π–π and anion…π noncovalent interactions present. We discuss these interactions in two different complementary ways, viz. using a point‐to‐point approach in the light of Bader's theory of Atoms In Molecules (AIM), analyzing the individual significance of each interaction, and in a more `global' analysis, making use of the Hirshfeld surfaces and the associated enrichment ratio (ER) approach, evaluating the surprisingly large co‐operative effect of the superabundant weaker contacts.

Applicability of medium-size basis sets in calculations of molecular dynamic polarisabilities

Static and dynamic average polarisabilities and polarisability anisotropies of seven linear non-polar and polar molecules are calculated within the CCS, CC2, and CC3 approximations using a range of medium-sized basis sets: the polarised LPol-n (n = ds, dl, fs, fl), the aug-pc-n (n = 1, 2), the def2-SVPD, and -TZVPD basis sets. Reference values are obtained using a hierarchy of Dunning's (d-)aug-cc-pVXZ (X = D, T, Q, 5) basis sets. The results are discussed together with the available CCSD values in terms of basis set and correlation method errors, and their ratio. Detailed analysis shows that already the def2-SVPD basis set can be used in CCS polarisability calculations. When affordable, the slightly larger aug-pc-1 basis set is recommended, as it leads to significant reduction of basis set error. The def2-TZVPD, LPol-ds, and aug-pc-2 basis sets are optimal choice within the CC2 approximation, with the latter allowing to approach the CC2 basis set limit. The LPol-ds, -dl, and def2-TZVPD sets outperform the aug-cc-pVTZ set in average polarisability CCSD calculations, with the def2-TZVPD being competitive to other reduced-size sets also in determination of polarisability anisotropy. The aug-pc-2 basis is a particularly attractive choice for CCSD, giving the accuracy of aug-cc-pVQZ at a significantly reduced computational cost. The polarisability anisotropy is shown to be more computationally demanding than the average polarisability, in particular with respect to the accuracy of the correlation method and an accurate evaluation of this property requires at least the CCSD model.
