Spectroscopic, electronic structure and natural bond orbital analysis of o-fluoronitrobenzene and p-fluoronitrobenzene: a comparative study

Experimental FTIR, FT-Raman and FT-NMR spectroscopic studies of o-fluoronitrobenzene and p-fluoronitrobenzene have been carried out. A detailed quantum chemical calculations have been performed using DFT/B3LYP method with 6-311++G** and 6-31G** basis sets. Complete vibrational analyses of the compounds were performed. The temperature dependence of thermodynamic properties has been analysed. The atomic charges, electronic exchange interaction and charge delocalisation of the molecule have been performed by natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. Molecular electrostatic surface potential (MESP), total electron density distribution and frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) are constructed at B3LYP/6-311++G** level to understand the electronic properties. The charge density distribution and site of chemical reactivity of the molecules have been obtained by mapping electron density isosurface with electrostatic potential surfaces (ESP). The electronic properties, HOMO and LUMO energies were measured by time-dependent TD-DFT approach. (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra were recorded and (1)H and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts of the molecule were calculated. The (1)H and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts of the molecules in chloroform solvent and in gas phase were calculated by using the Gauge-Independent Atomic Orbital (GIAO) method and are found to be in good agreement with experimental values. The theoretical parameters obtained at B3LYP levels have been compared with the experimental values.     

Role of doping and sheet size in tailoring optoelectronic properties of germanene: A TDDFT study

Germanene is a novel 2D material with promising optoelectronic properties, tuning of which is to be explored. This work demonstrates that doping and increasing the sheet size can alter optical and electronic properties of germanene via perturbation of the band structure. This feature has also been observed in other nanostructures, notably, silicon nanostructures, and may be attributed to quantum confinement effects. Our main findings on H‐terminated germanene are, (i) band gap can be reduced by 30%, (ii) exciton binding energy can be reduced by 60%, and (iii) absorption spectra can be tuned from UV to visible range. We employ time‐dependent density functional theory to investigate the role of dopants, boron (B), phosphorus (P), carbon (C), silicon (Si), and zirconium (Zr). Width of the germanene sheet is varied from 0.78 nm to 2.78 nm. Frequency and energy calculations are carried out to analyze the infrared (IR) and ultra‐violet (UV)‐visible (VIS) spectra.     

Ferromagnetism induced by intrinsic defects and boron substitution in single-wall SiC nanotubes

On the basis of density functional theory (DFT) methods, we study the magnetic properties and electronic structures of the armchair (4, 4) and zigzag (8, 0) single-wall SiC nanotubes with various vacancies and boron substitution. The calculation results indicate that a Si vacancy could induce the magnetic moments in both armchair (4, 4) and zigzag (8, 0) single-wall SiC nanotubes, which mainly arise from the p orbital of C atoms surrounding Si vacancy, leading to the ferromagnetic coupling. However, a C vacancy could only bring about the magnetic moment in armchair (4, 4) single-wall SiC nanotube, which mainly originates from the polarization of Si p electrons, leading to the antiferromagnetic coupling. In addition, for both kinds of single-wall SiC nanotubes, magnetic moments can be induced by a boron atom substituting for C atom. When two boron atoms locate nearest neighbored, both kinds of single-wall Si(C, B) nanotubes exhibit antiferromagnetic coupling.     

A First-Principles Study of C3N Nanostructures: Control and Engineering of the Electronic and Magnetic Properties of Nanosheets,Tubes and Ribbons

Using first-principles calculations we systematically investigate the atomic, electronic and magnetic properties of novel two-dimensional materials (2DM) with a stoichiometry C₃N which has recently been synthesized. We investigate how the number of layers affect the electronic properties by considering monolayer, bilayer and trilayer structures, with different stacking of the layers. We find that a transition from semiconducting to metallic character occurs which could offer potential applications in future nanoelectronic devices. We also study the affect of width of C₃N nanoribbons, as well as the radius and length of C₃N nanotubes, on the atomic, electronic and magnetic properties. Our results show that these properties can be modified depending on these dimensions, and depend markedly on the nature of the edge states. Functionalization of the nanostructures by the adsorption of H adatoms is found induce metallic, half-metallic, semiconducting and ferromagnetic behavior, which offers an approach to tailor the properties, as can the application of strain. Our calculations give insight into this new family of C₃N nanostructures, which reveal unusual electronic and magnetic properties, and may have great potential in applications such as sensors, electronics and optoelectronic at the nanoscale.     

The electronic structure of inorganic benzenes: valence bond and ring-current descriptions

Valence bond (VB) theory and ring-current maps have been used to study the electronic structure of inorganic benzene analogues X(6)H(6) (X = C (1), Si (2)), X(6) (X = N (3), P (4)), X(3)Y(3)H(6) (X,Y = B,N (5), B,P (6), Al,N (7), Al,P (8)), and B(3)Y(3)H(3) (Y = O (9), S (10)). It is shown that the homonuclear compounds possess benzene-like character, with resonance between two Kekulé-like structures and induced diatropic ring currents. Heteronuclear compounds typically show localization of the lone pairs on the electronegative atoms; Kekulé-like structures do not contribute. Of the heteronuclear compounds, only B(3)P(3)H(6) (6) has some benzene-like features with a significant contribution of two Kekulé-like structures to its VB wave function, an appreciable resonance energy, and a discernible diatropic ring current in planar geometry. However, relaxation of 6 to the optimal nonplanar chair conformation is accompanied by the onset of localization of the ring current.     

On the origin of the color in the solid state. Crystal structure and optical and magnetic properties of 4-cyanopyridinium hydrogensquarate monohydrate

The novel hydrogensquarate salt of 4-cyanopyridine was synthesized, and its structure and properties were elucidated in detail spectroscopically, thermally, and structurally, using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, linear-polarized solid-state IR spectroscopy, UV spectroscopy, TGA, DSC, DTA, and positive and negative ESI MS as well as 1H and 13C NMR methods. Quantum chemical methods were used to calculate the electronic structure, vibrational data, and electronic spectra. 4-Cyanopyridinium hydrogensquarate monohydrate crystallizes in the space group P and exhibits a layered structure with molecules linked by intermolecular NH...O(HSq-) (2.651 A) and HOH...O(HSq-) (2.792 and 2.563 A) hydrogen bonds with participation of cations, anions, and the solvent molecule. The formation of stable layers of the type (2HSq-.2H2O)n and the observation of a red color in the solid state is discussed. The optical and magnetic properties were elucidated in comparison to the data for neutral 4-cyanopyridine as well as its four known salts.     

Beyond NICS: estimation of the magnetotropicity of inorganic unsaturated planar rings

A simple classical model of magnetic-field induced electron flow is used to evaluate the ring current strength for a few inorganic monocyclic compounds: B(3)H(3)N(3), B(3)H(3)O(3), P(6), N(6), Si(6)H(6), N, Al and H(6). It is shown that, for these neutral and charged systems, sustaining delocalized electron currents in the presence of a magnetic field B(ext) orthogonal to the σ(h) plane, the out-of-plane component of the nuclear magnetic shielding along the central axis is connected to the out-of-plane magnetizability by a simple equation, involving the radius of an average loop of current. A novel estimate of this effective radius is provided. Reliable ring current susceptibilities (that is, current strengths) can be evaluated by a simple relationship, using the out-of-plane components of nuclear shielding and magnetizability tensors. The accuracy of the current susceptibilities calculated by the classical model is established by comparison with corresponding ab initio estimates obtained by integrating the quantum mechanical current-density vector field. The out-of-plane components of nuclear shielding and magnetizability are both strongly biased by the molecular geometry. Their combined use to estimate the ring current susceptibility offers a quantifier of magnetotropicity more reliable than (i) the ξ(∥) out-of-plane component of magnetizability, (ii) the σ(∥)(CM) out-of-plane component of the magnetic shielding at the center of mass, widely reported as NICS(∥)(0) = -σ(∥)(CM). The inadequacy of these commonly adopted magnetotropicity measures is demonstrated by comparing a set of related molecules, C(6)H(6) and Si(6)H(6), N(6) and P(6).     

Exploring two-dimensional graphene and boron-nitride as potential nanocarriers for cytarabine and clofarabine anti-cancer drugs

Development in two-dimensional (2D) drug-delivery materials have quickly translated into biological and pharmacological fields. In this present work, pristine graphene (PG) and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) sheets are explored as a drug carrier for cytarabine (CYT) and clofarabine (CLF) anti-cancer drugs using density functional theory (DFT). The obtained geometrical, energetic and electronic properties revealed that the PG sheet is more reactive and it adsorbs CYT and CLF anti-cancer drugs better than the h-BN sheet. The adsorption energies of CYT and CLF on PG sheet is -24.293 and -23.308 kcal/mol respectively, this is due to the delocalized electrons present in the PG sheet. The flow of electron direction between anti-cancer drugs and 2D sheet are calculated by ΔN, ΔE_A(B), and ΔE_B(A) parameters and Natural bond orbital analysis (NBO). The electronic and optical properties are calculated to understand the chemical reactivity and stability of the complex systems. The obtained results exhibit that the PG sheet retains significant therapeutic potential as a drug delivery vehicle for a drug molecule to treat cancer therapy.     

The boron connection: a parallel description of aromatic, bonding, and structural characteristics of hydrogenated silicon-carbon clusters and isovalent carboranes

The aromatic, bonding, and structural characteristics of the Si 4C 2H 2-C 2B 4H 6, Si 2C 4H 4-C 4B 2H 6, and other Si n C 2H 2-C 2B n H n+2 ( n = 1, 2, 3, 5) isovalent pairs are studied using density functional theory (DFT) and coupled cluster methods to fully illustrate the homology of the two species. This homology, which is based on the replacement of the carborane B-H units by isovalent Si atoms, is extended to all three characteristics (structural, electronic, and aromatic) and includes all three lowest-energy structures of the isovalent pairs. This type of "boron connection", which has been tested for silicon clusters recently, seems to be a valid and extremely useful concept. For the aromatic properties of the Si n C 2H 2-C 2B n H n+2 species, expressed through the nucleus independent chemical shifts (NICS), a strange odd-even effect with respect to the number of Si atoms is observed which seems rather difficult to explain. To help possible future identification and characterization of the Si n C 2H 2 clusters, their infrared, Raman, and optical excitation spectra are calculated within the framework of DFT, using the 6-311+G(2d, p) basis set. It is expected that the present results would facilitate the exploitation of the well-known carborane and metallacarborane chemical properties and applications for the design and development of novel silicon-carbon-based composite materials.

H-bonding patterns in the platinated guanine-cytosine base pair and guanine-cytosine-guanine-cytosine base tetrad: an electron density deformation analysis and AIM study

The atoms in molecule theory (AIM) and electronic structure analysis are applied together to investigate H-bonding patterns in metalated nucleobase complexes. The influence of Pt on the intra GC base pair H-bonding has been found to reduce intra base pair H-bonding of N4(C)...O6(G) in the platinated GC pair and GCGC tetrad. The relaxation of geometry constrains in metalated nucleobases is found to be decisively important in the formation of novel molecular architectures from nucleobases and metal entities. The incorporation of the platinum in the GCGC tetrad benefits the formation of the unique CH...N (H5(C)...N1(G)) hydrogen bond pattern in the tetrad by offering improved geometric constraints rather than through changing the electronic properties around the H5(C) and N1(G) sites. Platination at the N7 of guanine reduces the deprotonation energy considerably.     

Unprecedented coordination of dithiocarbimate in multinuclear and heteroleptic complexes

An uncommon coordination protocol induced by the p-tolylsulfonyl dithiocarbimate ligand (L) [L = p-CH(3)C(6)H(4)SO(2)N[double bond, length as m-dash]CS(2)(2-)] in conjunction with PPh(3) allowed the formation of novel homodimetallic, Cu(2)(PPh(3))(4)L (1), trinuclear heterometallic Cu(2)Ni(L)(2)(PPh(3))(4) (2) and heteroleptic complexes of general formula cis-[M(PPh(3))(2)L] [M = Pd(ii) (3), Pt(ii) (4)]. The complexes have been characterized by microanalysis, mass spectrometry, IR, (1)H, (13)C and (31)P NMR and electronic absorption spectra and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. 2 uniquely consists of square planar, trigonal planar and tetrahedral coordination spheres within the same molecule. In both heteroleptic complexes 3 and 4 the orientation of aromatic protons of PPh(3) ligand towards the Pd(ii) and Pt(ii) center reveals C-HPd and C-HPt rare intramolecular anagostic or preagostic interactions. These complexes exhibit photoluminescent properties in solution at room temperature arising mainly from intraligand charge transfer (ILCT) transitions. The assignment of electronic absorption bands has been corroborated by time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. Complexes 1 and 2 with σ(rt) values ～ 10(-6) S cm(-1) show semi-conductor properties in the temperature range 313-403 K whereas 3 and 4 exhibit insulating behaviour.

Synthesis and structure of new carborane-substituted cyclotriphosphazenes

The reactions of [N(3)P(3)Cl(6)] with one, two, or three equivalents of the difunctional 1,2-closo-carborane C(2)B(10)H(10)[CH(2)OH](2) and K(2)CO(3) in acetone have been investigated. These reactions led to the new spiro-closo-carboranylphosphazenes gem-[N(3)P(3)Cl(6-2n)[(OCH(2))(2)C(2)B(10)H(10)](n)] (n=1 (1), 2 (2)) and the first fully carborane-substituted phosphazene gem-[N(3)P(3)[(OCH(2))(2)C(2)B(10)H(10)](3)] (3). A bridged product, non-gem-[N(3)P(3)Cl(4)[(OCH(2))(2)C(2)B(10)H(10)]] (4), was also detected. The reaction of the well-known spiro derivatives [N(3)P(3)Cl(2)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(2)] and [N(3)P(3)Cl(4)(O(2)C(12)H(8))] with the same carborane-diol and K(2)CO(3) in acetone gave the new compounds gem-[N(3)P(3)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(3-n)[(OCH(2))(2)C(2)B(10)H(10)](n)] (n=1 (5) or 2 (6), respectively), without signs of intra- or intermolecularly bridged species. Upon treatment with NEt(3) in acetone, compound 5 was converted into the corresponding nido-carboranylphosphazene. However, the reaction of gem-[N(3)P(3)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(2)[(OCH(2))(2)C(2)B(10)H(10)]] (5) with NEt(3) in ethanol instead of acetone proceeded in a different manner to give the new compound (NHEt(3))(2)[N(3)P(3)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(2)(O)[OCH(2)C(2)B(9)H(10)CH(2)OCH(2)CH(3)]] (7). For compounds with two 2,2'-dioxybiphenyl units, gem-[N(3)P(3)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(2)[(OCH(2))(2)C(2)B(10)H(10)]] (5), (NHEt(3))[N(3)P(3)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(2)[(OCH(2))(2)C(2)B(9)H(10)]] (8), and (NHEt(3))(2)[N(3)P(3)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(2)(O)[OCH(2)C(2)B(9)H(10)CH(2)OCH(2)CH(3)]] (7), a mixture of different stereoisomers may be expected. However, for 5 and 7 only the meso compounds seem to be formed, with the same (R,S)-configuration as in the precursor [N(3)P(3)Cl(2)(O(2)C(12)H(8))(2)]. The reaction of 5 to give 8 seems to proceed with a change of configuration at one phosphorus center, giving a racemic mixture. The crystal structures of the nido-carboranylphosphazenes 7 and 8 have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction methods.     

Dimensionality switching through a thermally induced reversible single-crystal-to-single-crystal phase transition in a cyanide complex

The heterometallic hexanuclear cyanide-bridged complex {[Mn(bpym)(H(2)O)](2)[Fe(HB(pz)(3))(CN)(3)](4)} (1), its C(15)N and D(2)O enriched forms {[Mn(bpym)(H(2)O)](2)[Fe(HB(pz)(3))(C(15)N)(3)](4)} (2) and {[Mn(bpym)(D(2)O)](2)[Fe(HB(pz)(3))(CN)(3)](4)} (3), and the hexanuclear derivative complex {[Mn(bpym)(H(2)O)](2)[Fe(B(pz)(4))(CN)(3)](4)}·4H(2)O (4) [bpym = 2,2'-bipyrimidine, HB(pz)(3)(-) = hydrotris(1-pyrazolyl)borate, B(pz)(4)(-) = tetra(1-pyrazolyl)borate] have been synthesized. Their structures have been determined through single-crystal X-ray crystallography at different temperatures. Whereas 3 and 4 maintain a discrete hexanuclear motif during the entire temperature range investigated (down to 95 K), 1 and 2 exhibit a thermally induced reversible single-crystal to single-crystal phase transition driven by a remarkable concerted rearrangement of hydrogen and cyanide coordination bonds. While hexanuclear complexes are observed in the high temperature phases (noted 1a and 2a) above 200 K, the low temperature phases are composed of one-dimensional coordination polymers noted 1b and 2b. The magnetic properties of the four compounds have been investigated in the 2-300 K range, and they reveal the occurrence of an overall antiferromagnetic behavior. The thermal dependence of the optical reflectivity and the FT-IR absorbance have been studied for 1 in the range 10-300 K and 130-300 K, respectively. A comparative analysis of the structural and electronic properties for 1-4 clearly underlines the major role of the intermolecular interactions in the topological and dimensional rearrangement observed during the structural phase transition. This result opens new perspectives in the design of cyanide-based switchable magnetic materials using coordination bonds rearrangements.     

Phosphoramides: Synthesis,Spectroscopy, and X‐ray Crystallography

A series of new phosphoramides with general formula RP(O)X₂, where R = amino/p‐methylphenoxy and X = amine, were synthesized and characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and infrared (IR) spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectra show that among compounds 7–9 containing 2‐, 3‐, and 4‐aminopyridinyl moieties, respectively, the shielding order of the P atom decreases as 7 > 9 > 8 . Also, the structure of compound 7 was determined by X‐ray crystallography. In this structure, repeated noncentrosymmetric dimers are formed by two strong intermolecular N(1)‐H(1N)…N(2) and N(3)‐H(3N)…O(1) hydrogen bonds. Taking into account weak intermolecular C(17)‐H(17C)…N(4), C(17)‐H(17E)…N(4), C(2)‐H(2A)…O(2), and also weak aromatic C—H…C interactions, a three‐dimensional polymeric chain is created in the crystalline network. The density functional theory calculations at B3LYP, B3PW91, and M06 levels using the 6–31+G** basis set were in good agreement with the X‐ray crystallography data.     

Aromaticity of ring carbo-mers of [N]annulenes and [N]cycloalkanes

Maps of current density induced by a perpendicular external magnetic field are calculated at the ipsocentric CTOCD-DZ/6-31G**//B3PW91/6-31G** level for ring carbo-mers of [N]-annulenes (closed-shell singlet states of C(3N)H, N = 3 to 7, with q = -1, 0, +1, 0, -1, respectively, and also the triplet ground state for N = 4) and of [N]-cycloalkanes (C(3N)H(qN), N = 3, 4, 5). Strong four-electron diatropic ring currents indicate conventional pi aromaticity for all the singlet and triplet carbo-[N]annulenes studied, with the exception of C(12)H(4), where instead the strong two-electron paratropic ring current is the signature of pi antiaromaticity. The carbo-[N]cycloalkanes (also known as [N]pericyclynes) show only localized pi currents, consistent with non-aromaticity. There is no indication of a 'homo-aromatic' ring current attributable to the in-plane pi orbitals of the inserted C2 units in any of the maps. Consequences for the interpretation of ELF (electron localisation function) populations are discussed.
