Interaction of metal ions (Na+, K+) with different binding sites, such as amino nitrogen, hydroxyl oxygen, and carbonyl oxygen for all gaseous conformers of glycine molecule were investigated using Density Functional Theory (B3LYP/6‐311++G**, B3PW91/6‐311++G**) methods. It was found that the order of stability of the conformers was changed due to the binding of the metal ion. The relative energy values show that the 7p conformer is more stable than the 1p conformer when a metal ion binds with the carbonyl oxygen. The intensity of interaction on hydroxyl oxygen is very low due to the low basicity of hydroxyl oxygen. The binding affinities of the complexes were calculated using the thermochemical properties. The relative energy and chemical hardness values predicted the most stable complex. The calculated condensed Fukui functions predict the favorable reactive site among the three binding sites. It is concluded that the reactivity of each binding site varies for each conformation due to the presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ab initio and density functional theory (DFT) methods have been employed to study the molecular structural conformations and hydrated forms of both salicylamide (SAM) and O‐hydroxybenzoyl cyanide (OHBC). Molecular geometries and energetics have been obtained in the gaseous phase by employing the Møller–Plesset type 2 MP2/6‐311G(2d,2p) and B3LYP/6‐311G(2d,2p) levels of theory. The presence of an electron‐releasing group (SAM) leads to an increase in the energy of the molecular system, while the presence of an electron‐withdrawing group (OHBC) drastically decreases the energy. Chemical reactivity parameters (η and μ) have been calculated using the energy values of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) obtained at the Hartree–Fock (HF)/6‐311G(2d,2p) level of theory for all the conformers and the principle of maximum hardness (MHP) has been tested. The condensed Fukui functions have been calculated using the atomic charges obtained through the natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis scheme for all the optimized structures at the B3LYP/6‐311G(2d,2p) level of theory, and the most reactive sites of the molecules have been identified. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies have been carried out at the B3LYP/6‐311G(2d,2p) level of theory for all the conformers in the gaseous phase on the basis of the method of Cheeseman and coworkers. The calculated chemical shift values have been used to discuss the delocalization activity of the electron clouds. The dimeric structures of the most stable conformers of both SAM and OHBC in the gaseous phase have been optimized at the B3LYP/6‐311G(2d,2p) level of theory, and the interaction energies have been calculated. The most stable conformers of both compounds bear an intramolecular hydrogen bond, which gives rise to the formation of a pseudo‐aromatic ring. These conformers have been allowed to interact with the water molecule. Special emphasis has been given to analysis of the intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the hydrated conformers. Self‐consistent reaction field (SCRF) theory has been employed to optimize all the conformers in the aqueous phase (ε = 78.39) at the B3LYP/6‐311G(2d,2p) level of theory, and the solvent effect has been studied. Vibrational frequency analysis has been performed for all the optimized structures at MP2/6‐311G(2d,2p) level of theory, and the stationary points corresponding to local minima without imaginary frequencies have been obtained for all the molecular structures. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Is There a Minimum Electrophilicity Principle in Chemical Reactions?   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
NOORIZADEH  Siamak 《中国化学》2007,25(10):1439-1444
For 25 simple reactions, the changes of the hardness (△η), polarizability (△α) and electrophilicity index (△ω) and their cube-roots (△η^1/3, △α^1/3, △ω^1/3) were calculated. It is shown that although the Maximum Hardness and Minimum Polarizability Principles are not valid for all reactions, but in most cases △ω^1/3〈0, whereas we always find △ω〈0. Our observation implies to this fact that for those chemical reactions in which the number of moles decreases or at least remains constant, the most stable species (reactants or products) have the lowest sum of electrophilicities. In other words "the natural direction of a chemical reaction is toward a state of minimum electrophilicity". This fact may be called Minimum Electrophilicity Principle (MEP).  相似文献

Relying upon the fact that the density functional computation of the global hardness of the atoms of the elements are still at large and there is some mathematical in congruency between the theory and operational formula of finite difference approximation, we have suggested a radial‐dependent ansatz for evaluating global hardness of atoms as: η=a(7.2/r)+b (in eV), where, “a” and “b” are the constants and r is the absolute radius of atoms in angstrom unit. The ansatz is invoked to evaluate the global hardness of atoms of 103 element of the periodic table. The evaluated new set of global hardness is found to satisfy the sine qua non of a reasonable scale of hardness by exhibiting perfect periodicity of periods and groups and correlating the gross physicochemical properties of elements. The inertness of Hg and extreme reactivity Cs atoms are nicely correlated. The chemical reactivity and its variation in small steps in the series of lanthanide elements are also nicely reproduced. The results of the present semiempirical calculation also have strong correlation with the result of some sophisticated DFT calculation for a set of atoms. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Some Chapman rearrangements are investigated using HF and B3LYP methods combined with two different basis sets (6‐31G** and 6‐31++G**) and both finite difference model and Janak's approximation. It is shown that although minimum polarizability (MPP) and maximum hardness (MHP) principles are always valid in these reactions, minimum electrophilicity principle (MEP) is followed just when DFT method (B3LYP) is used. The Morrel's rules are also successfully applied in predicting the validity of MEP in these rearrangements. Therefore, it seems that in the study of this kind of reaction, the results of DFT are more reliable than those of HF.  相似文献

An approximated hardness kernel, which includes the second derivative with respect to the density of the kinetic energy, the electron-electron coulomb repulsion, and the exchange density functionals, has been tested for the calculation of the global hardness. The results obtained for a series of 40 cations and neutral systems and 16 anions represent in most cases an improvement of the results obtained using the HOMO-LUMO gap approach and indicate the viability of this approach to evaluate global hardness. In addition, the relevance of the Fukui function approximation and the role of the three components of the hardness kernel in the evaluation of the global hardness have been analyzed.  相似文献

In chemical response the BH3 and BF3 molecules undergo the physical process of planar (D3h) to pyramidal (C3v) reorganization in shape as the condition precedent to the event of chemical reaction under the requirement of symmetry. A frontier orbital and density functional study of the variation of the stability of electronic structures and chemical reactivity of associated with the physical process of D3h to C3v geometry reorganization has been performed. The theoretical parameters viz. eigenvalues of HOMO and LUMO, the HOMO and LUMO energy gap, the global hardness and global softness, the chemical potential, the condensed Fukui function, and local softness of B atom, the reaction site, have been computed over a wide range of ∠XBX angles. The nature of variation in the intrinsic chemical reactivity, global and local, of the molecules associated with their geometry reorganization during the chemical event of charge transfer interaction involving their frontier molecular orbitals has been quantitatively explored. The hardness profiles as a function of reaction coordinates are consistent with the principle of maximum hardness (PMH). Results demonstrate that the hardness and softness are not a static and invariable property of molecules but a dynamic and variable function of molecular structure. The hardness parameters and the HOMO–LUMO gap of the molecules are so modified with the distortion of molecular geometry that, after a certain stage of molecular deformation, the profiles of such parameters of the molecules intersect and cross each other, signifying that the relative order of the intrinsic hardness of their equilibrium geometry is reversed. The intrinsically hard molecule BF3 becomes softer than the intrinsically soft molecule BH3 as a consequence of structural distortion. The increase in chemical reactivity computed in terms of density functional parameters are transparent and justified in terms of the profiles of the eigenvalues of the frontier orbitals. The profiles of chemical potential reveal the inherent difference in the tendency of backdonation from two molecules. The computed values of Fukui functions and local softness parameters of the B atom site demonstrate that the concept of local softness can be exploited for a theoretical analysis and understanding of the characteristic chemical events of the molecules under consideration. The profiles of the Fukui functions and local softness parameters of the two molecules seem to reflect and reveal their intrinsic difference in the tendency of receiving donation in the LUMO (electrophilicity) and that of backdonation from the HOMO (nucleophilicity) and the inherent difference of overall reactivity of the two molecules by a simultaneous operation of two opposing processes of charge transfer. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An approximation to the Fukui function in atoms recently proposed in the form of a gradient correction to the local density approximation expression is here investigated. The spatial behavior of this function is analyzed, focusing on the gradient correction term. Physical information on the shell structure of atoms is shown to be conveyed by the radial distribution of that term. The analytically modeled densities (AMD) procedure is also implemented, and global atomic hardnesses are calculated with Hartree-Fock and AMD representations of atomic electron densities. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Conjugated organic heterocycles are systems of growing interest in materials science in view of the potential applications in fields such as electronics, photonics, sensors, or corrosion protection. The study of their molecular properties serves as a model for the prediction of the behavior of potentially conductive oligomers and polymers. A detailed analysis of isomeric thiadiazole monoxide molecules has been done using Hartree–Fock and local (SVWN) and nonlocal (BLYP, B3LYP) density functionals and optimizing the molecular geometries by means of the gradient technique. A charge sensitivity analysis of the studied molecules has been performed by resorting to density functional theory, obtaining several sensitivity coefficients such as the molecular energy, net atomic charges, global and local hardness, global and local softness, and Fukui functions. With these results and the analysis of the dipole moments, the molecular electrostatic potentials and the total electron density maps, several conclusions have been inferred about the preferred sites of chemical reaction of the studied compounds. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

In this work, we will show that the largest values of the local softness and hardness do not necessarily correspond to the softest and hardest regions of the molecule, respectively. Based on our results, we will argue that it is more useful to interpret the local softness and the local hardness as functions that measure the "local abundance" or "concentration" of the corresponding global properties. This new point of view helps reveal how and when these local reactivity indices are most useful.  相似文献

The reactivity of 22 unsaturated molecules undergoing attack by a methyl radical (⋅CH3) have been elucidated using the condensed radical general-purpose reactivity indicator (condensed radical GPRI) appropriate for relatively nucleophilic or electrophilic molecules. Using the appropriate radical GPRI equation for electrophilic attack or nucleophilic radical attack, seven different population schemes were used to assign the most reactive atoms in each of the 22 molecules. The results show that the condensed radical GPRI is sensitive to the population scheme chosen, but less sensitive than the radical Fukui function. Therefore, the reliability of these methods depends on the population scheme. Our investigation indicates that the condensed radical GPRI is most accurate in predicting the dominant products of the methyl radical addition reactions on a variety of unsaturated molecules when the Hirshfeld, Merz–Singh–Kollman, or Voronoi deformation density population schemes are used. Furthermore, for all populations schemes in the majority of instances where the radical Fukui function failed the radical GPRI was able to identify the most reactive atom under certain reactivity conditions.  相似文献

The chemical hardness concept and its realization within the conceptual density functional theory is approached with innovative perspectives, such as the electronegativity and hardness equalization of atoms in molecules connected with the softness kernel, in order to examine the structure–reactivity equalization ansatz between the electronic sharing index and the charge transfer either in the additive or geometrical mean picture of bonding. On the other hand, the maximum hardness principle presents a relation with the chemical stability of the hardness concept. In light of the inverse relation between hardness and polarizability, the minimum polarizability principle has been proposed. Additionally, this review includes important applications of the chemical hardness concept to solid-state chemistry. The mentioned applications support the validity of the electronic structure principles regarding chemical hardness and polarizability in solid-state chemistry.  相似文献

A necessary condition for the N‐representability of the electron pair density proposed by one of the authors (E. R. D.) is generalized. This shows a link between this necessary condition and other, more widely known, N‐representability conditions for the second‐order density matrix. The extension to spin‐resolved electron pair densities is considered, as is the extension to higher‐order distribution functions. Although quantum mechanical systems are our primary focus, the results are also applicable to classical systems, where they reduce to an inequality originally derived by Garrod and Percus. As a simple application, bounds to the average angle between an electron pair are derived. It is shown that computational methods based on variational minimization of the energy with respect to the electron pair density can give extremely poor results unless robust N‐representability constraints are considered. For reference, constraints for the N‐representability of the pair density are summarized. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2006  相似文献

The chemical reactivity concepts of density functional theory are studied through a unified view in the temperature-dependent approach provided by the grand canonical ensemble. This procedure leads to a more general perspective that enriches our understanding of the behavior of the average energy and its derivatives with respect to the average number of electrons, provides alternative definitions for those quantities that are “ill defined” at zero temperature, and allows one to determine the relationships among reactivity concepts at any temperature. In particular, it has been found that at high temperatures the parabolic model for reactivity indicators may be justified through the electronic entropy term in the Helmholtz free energy, and that at nonzero temperatures there is an electronic heat capacity contribution to the average energy. In summary, the unified view of the temperature-dependent approach is an important complement to the zero-temperature formulation that clarifies fundamental issues therein.  相似文献

Bond Fukui functions and matrices are introduced for ab initio levels of theory using a Mulliken atoms in molecules model. It is shown how these indices may be obtained from first‐order density matrix derivatives without need for going to second‐order density matrices as in a previous work. The importance of taking into account the nonorthogonality of the basis in ab initio calculations is shown, contrasting the present results with previous work based on Hückel theory. It is shown how the extension of Fukui functions to Fukui matrices allows getting more insight into the nature of bond Fukui functions. All presently introduced indices respect the necessary normalization conditions and include the classical single atom condensed Fukui functions. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.  相似文献

The Woodward-Hoffmann rules for pericyclic reactions are explained entirely in terms of directly observable physical properties of molecules (specifically changes in electron density) without any recourse to model-dependent concepts, such as orbitals and aromaticity. This results in a fundamental explanation of how the physics of molecular interactions gives rise to the chemistry of pericyclic reactions. This construction removes one of the key outstanding problems in the qualitative density-functional theory of chemical reactivity (the so-called conceptual DFT). One innovation in this paper is that the link between molecular-orbital theory and conceptual DFT is treated very explicitly, revealing how molecular-orbital theory can be used to provide "back-of-the-envelope" approximations to the reactivity indicators of conceptual DFT.  相似文献

Model core potential computations were performed for Rh2, Rh3, and Rh4 clusters and their respective cations and anions using the linear combination of Gaussian‐type orbital, nonlocal spin density method. The optimized geometries, electronic and magnetic structures, binding and fragmentation energies, adiabatic ionization potentials, and electron affinities were determined. Results show that the ionization potentials, electron affinities, binding energies, and magnetic moments decrease with the cluster size. For Rh2 and Rh3 the most stable structures exhibit ferromagnetic properties, while Rh4 in its ground state is found to be paramagnetic. The structures of minimum energy for the charged species often differs from the corresponding neutral one. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2001  相似文献
