8-羟基喹啉锂及其衍生物电子光谱性质的理论

运用密度泛函(DFT/B3LYP)方法对三种吸电子基(-C6H5、-CN、-Cl)取代的8-羟基喹啉锂(Liq)所形成的18种衍生物进行对比,从中找出最稳定的三种衍生物,并在此基础上应用含时密度泛函(TD-DFF)方法和单激发组态相互作用(CIS)分析了取代基对Liq前线分子轨道和电子光谱的影响.结果表明:吸电子取代基主要影响所在环的前线分子轨道,其影响程度和取代基的吸电子能力有关;同时取代位置的不同和取代基的共轭效应会导致电子光谱的移动方向不同,取代基在苯酚环上时使Liq电子光谱蓝移,而在吡啶环上时使Liq电子光谱红移,取代基共轭效应大电子光谱红移.该计算结果与实验结果吻合.     

不同电子取代基卟啉化合物的光谱和DFT研究

采用实验与密度泛函理论计算(DFT)相结合,研究了不同电子取代基修饰的5-邻羟基苯基-10,15,20-三苯基卟啉(TPPOH)和5-邻羟基苯基-10,15,20-三(对甲氧基)苯基卟啉[(p-OCH₃)TPPOH]化合物的吸收光谱及其电化学性质。结果表明,相对于TPPOH,由于对位甲氧基(-OCH₃)给电子能力强致使(p-OCH₃)TPPOH的卟啉环电子云密度增加,从而引起吸收光谱红移(3 nm)、氧化还原电位发生明显的负移,最高占据分子轨道(HOMO)和最低空轨道(LUMO)能级差降低0.06 eV。DFT理论分析分子前线轨道电子分布结果显示(p-OCH₃)TPPOH的HOMO和LUMO轨道能量均增加,而能级差却比TPPOH能级差小0.05 eV。理论结果与电化学和光谱实验结论一致,并进一步阐明了光谱和电化学性质变化机理,为揭示不同取代基卟啉化合物的设计与应用提供重要依据。

对苯二甲酸-双(4-甲氧基苯酯)及其衍生物的结构与光谱

在密度泛函理论B3LYP/6-31 G*水平上计算研究了对苯二甲酸-双(4-甲氧基苯酯)及其OH和F腰接取代化合物的几何结构与红外振动光谱和电子光谱性质。研究发现这类化合物的酯基碳氧原子与苯环形成不同的离域大π键,空间位阻效应和共轭效应使三个苯环位于不同平面上,二面角在53°～59°范围。含时密度泛函理论计算第一激发态的电子垂直跃迁能,表明最大吸收光谱全部源于分子中HOMO→LUMO的π→π*跃迁,对应的最大吸收波长数值位于370～384nm之间,属于紫外区。腰接基对这类化合物的几何结构影响不大,仅由于空间位阻效应,使苯环(1)和苯环(2)之间的二面角增大3°～4°,但对其所在苯环的变形及其氢的振动有一定影响。同时,腰接羟基使HOMO→LUMO的能隙略有减小,最大吸收波长略有增大。腰接氟时因弱的共轭效应使得HOMO→LUMO的能隙减小0.1209eV,导致最大吸收波长红移14nm。

Tuning HOMO–LUMO levels: trends leading to the design of 9‐fluorenone scaffolds with predictable electronic and optoelectronic properties

Highest occupied molecular orbital–lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO–LUMO) tuning is an important consideration in the development of organic‐based semiconducting materials. A study of the specific effects and overall trends for the HOMO–LUMO tuning of a diverse series of 9‐fluorenones by means of extended conjugation and substituent effects is described. Trends were explored in a range of compounds, beginning with structures having highly electron‐withdrawing substituents and progressing to structures having highly electron‐donating substituents. Compounds with an incremental increase in conjugation were also examined. Electrochemical and optical measurements were used to calculate the HOMO–LUMO levels and HOMO–LUMO bandgap (HLG) for each structure. Results from both methods were compared and correlated with the differences in molecular structure. Increasing the electron‐donating character of the substituents was observed to decrease the HLG and increase the energy levels of the HOMO and the LUMO, whereas an increase in the electron‐withdrawing character produced the opposite results. Increasing conjugation decreased the HLG, increased the HOMO energy level, but decreased the LUMO energy level. Spectroscopic evidence of substituent influence on the carbonyl suggests that substituents directly impact the HLG by influencing the availability of nonbonding electrons within the carbonyl, which impacts the probability of an nπ* transition. The data presented not only elaborate on the HOMO–LUMO tuning of 9‐fluorenone systems but also enable the consideration of 9‐fluorenones as analogous models for HOMO–LUMO tuning in other more complex polyaromatic systems such as bifluorenylidenes. These trends may provide insight into developing materials with specifically tuned HLGs and HOMO–LUMO levels for a variety of applications. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Substituent Dependent Optical Properties of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-phenyl Substituted ethenyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">E</Emphasis>-thiophenes

Various electron donor and acceptor substituted (NO₂, CN, Cl, H, OCH₃, NH₂) p-phenyl ethenyl-E- thiophenes (1–6) were synthesized and substituent dependent optical properties (dipole moment, transition dipole moment, oscillator strength, optical band gap, hyperpolarizability) were studied using Solvatochromism and Density functional theory. It is shown that thiophene acts as a weak electron donor in presence of an electron withdrawing p-phenyl substituent (NO₂, CN, Cl), whereas thiophene acts as a weak electron acceptor in presence of an electron donating p-phenyl substituent (OCH₃, NH₂). In comparison to ethenyl thiophene 4, the HOMO-LUMO energy band gap is decreased upon increasing the electron donating or electron withdrawing capacity of p-phenyl substituent. From the excited state dipole moment calculation, it is shown that the excited state is highly dipolar for nitro and amino compounds 1 and 6, whereas compounds 2–5 show a non-polar excited state. As compared to the ethenyl thiophene 4, the first hyperpolarizability (β) increases upon substitution either with a strong electron withdrawing or strong electron donating p-phenyl substituent. A large β value is found for p-nitro phenyl ethenyl-E-thiophene and p-amino phenyl ethenyl-E- thiophene. Overall, these studies provide useful information in understanding the optical properties of phenyl and heterocyclic based ethenyl systems.     

Eigenvalues,integer discontinuities and NMR shielding constants in Kohn—Sham theory

Kohn—Sham eigenvalues are determined from coupled cluster electron densities. The calculated HOMO—LUMO eigenvalue differences are compared with those from conventional generalized gradient approximation (GGA) exchange-correlation functionals for a range of small molecules. In all cases, GGA HOMO—LUMO differences are smaller than those calculated from the coupled cluster densities. When the GGA HOMO—LUMO differences are explicitly corrected—such that they equal those calculated from electron densities—significant improvements in NMR shielding constants are obtained. The eigenvalues calculated from electron densities are also used to approximate the magnitude of the integer discontinuity in the exact exchange-correlation potential. The value of the Kohn—Sham HOMO eigenvalue is then considered. Although HOMO eigenvalues from high quality, asymptotically vanishing, exchange-correlation potentials are close to the negative of the ionization potential, HOMO eigenvalues from the GGA functionals are shifted upwards by approximately 50% of the calculated integer discontinuity. An alternative approach for correcting NMR shielding constants is investigated.

DFT and ab initio study on non-linear optical (NLO) properties of some organic complexes with different conjugate linker and substituent groups

A series of Schiff-bases chromophores containing imine or double C=C bond linkers between the donor and acceptor have been studied by first-principles calculations. The molecular structures, electronic properties and second order nonlinearities were investigated by DFT and ab initio methods. The optimized structural parameters of these Schiff-base derivates showed that these compounds are stable. The results of TD-DFT calculations indicate that the derivatives with the heterocyclic and imine linker have a red shift absorption compared to derivatives with the double C=C or N=N bonds. The analysis of the frontier molecular orbitals indicates that the CN group and the heterocycle linked by the CN or imine group has contribution to the LUMO orbital while the groups N(CH₃)₂ and the benzene ring linked by the double C=C or N=N bond have contribution to the HOMO orbital. The CN and the heterocyclic acceptors enable the derivatives to have a larger first static hyperpolarizability. However, the compounds 3-{4-[(4-Dimethylamino-phenylimino)-methyl]-pyridin-1-yl}-propanel-1-sulfonoperoxoic acid and 3-{4-[(4-Dimethylamino-phenylimino)-methyl]-quinolin-1-yl}propanel-1-sulfonoperoxoic acid with a substituent also have large first static hyperpolarizabilities due to the overwhelming contributions of electron density of the group to the HOMO orbital, that is, the HOMO orbital were constituted by the SO ₃ ^? group only. In order to understand the influence of the energy gap (??E) between the HOMO and the LUMO orbitals on the first static hyperpolarizability, we calculated the energy gap (??E) of all Schiff-base compounds. The results show that the smaller the HOMO-LUMO energy gap the larger the first static hyperpolarizability. The present study demonstrated that these compounds which have pure C=N double bond and heterocyclic substitution groups may have potential applications in the development of NLO materials.     

Substituent effect on local aromaticity in mono and di‐substituted heterocyclic analogs of naphthalene

A quantitative study on local aromaticity has been performed on a series of mono‐ and di‐substituted biheterocycles (quinoline, isoquinoline, quinoxaline, quinazoline). Three electronically based indices (PDI, ATI, and FLU) have been employed to investigate the substituent effect on the π‐electron delocalization in both heterocycle and benzenoid rings. Three typical substituents (Cl, OCH₃, and CN) with different inductive and resonance power have been selected. Generally, substituent causes a reduction in aromaticity irrespective of whether it is electron attracting or electron donating. It is shown that the maximum aromaticity exhibits a similar trend of Cl > CN > OCH₃ for all the studied rings. Moreover, it is found that the substituent situation with respect to the heteroatom has a significant influence on the aromaticity. It results from our study that in di‐substituted derivatives, irrespective of whether the two substituents form a meta or para isomer, they preferably choose the position which leads to the maximum aromaticity character.

Estimation of Ground-State and Singlet Excited-State Dipole Moments of Substituted Schiff Bases Containing Oxazolidin-2-one Moiety through Solvatochromic Methods

Absorption and fluorescence studies on novel Schiff bases (E)-4-(4-(4-nitro benzylideneamino)benzyl)oxazolidin-2-one (NBOA) and (E)-4-(4-(4-chlorobenzylidene amino)benzyl)oxazolidin-2-one (CBOA) were recorded in a series of twelve solvents upon increasing polarity at room temperature. Large Stokes shift indicates bathochromic fluorescence band for both the molecules. The photoluminescence properties of Schiff bases containing electron withdrawing and donating substituents were analyzed. Intramolecular charge transfer behavior can be studied based on the influence of different substituents in Schiff bases. Changes in position and intensity of absorption and fluorescence spectra are responsible for the stabilization of singlet excited-states of Schiff base molecules with different substituents, in polar solvents. This is attributed to the Intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism. In case of electron donating (?Cl) substituent, ICT contributes largely to positive solvatochromism when compared to electron withdrawing (?NO₂) substituent. Ground-state and singlet excited-state dipole moments of NBOA and CBOA were calculated experimentally using solvent polarity function approaches given by Lippert–Mataga, Bakhshiev, Kawskii-Chamma-Viallet and Reichardt. Due to considerable π- electron density redistribution, singlet excited-state dipole moment was found to be greater than ground-state dipole moment. Ground-state dipole moment value which was determined by quantum chemical method was used to estimate excited-state dipole moment using solvatochromic correlations. Kamlet-Abboud-Taft and Catalan multiple linear regression approaches were used to study non-specific solute-solvent interaction and hydrogen bonding interactions in detail. Optimized geometry and HOMO-LUMO energies of NBOA and CBOA have been determined by DFT and TD-DFT/PCM (B3LYP/6-311G (d, p)). Mulliken charges and molecular electrostatic potential have also been evaluated from DFT calculations.     

Theoretical study of optical and electronic properties of the bis‐dipolar diphenylamino‐endcapped oligoarylfluorenes as promising light emitting materials

We present a detailed study of the structural, electronic, and optical properties of the bis‐dipolar emissive oligoarylfluorenes, OF(2)Ar‐NPhs. The aim of our quantum‐chemical calculations is to investigate the role of the transition and the influence of the optical properties of the various central aryl cores in the oligoarylfluorenes. Geometry optimizations were performed for the ground‐state and for the first electronically excited‐state. The absorption and emission spectra were calculated using time‐dependent density functional theory (TD‐DFT). The results show that the HOMO, LUMO, energy gap, ionization potentials (IP), electron affinities (EA) and reorganization energy (λ) of the oligoarylfluorenes are significantly affected by the electronic withdrawing property and the conjugated length of the central aryl core. Consistently, the stronger the electron withdrawing strength, the lower the LUMO energy is. This thus improves the electron‐accepting and transporting properties by the low LUMO energy levels. The absorption and emission spectra of this series of bis‐dipolar molecules exhibit red shifts to some extent by the electronic nature of the electron affinitive central core in the oligoarylfluorenes. All the calculated results show that the oligoarylfluorenes are promising as useful light emitting materials for OLEDs. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
