An intermolecular perturbation approach to hydrogen bondings in systems in the ground and excited electronic states

The intermolecular interaction energy for binary systems in the ground and excited electronic states was partitioned into the Coulomb, exchange-repulsion, induction, dispersion and charge-transfer interaction terms by the perturbation expansion method. The various interaction terms were evaluated for the hydrogen bondings in (HF)₂, (H₂O)₂, (CH₃OH)₂, (RCOOH)₂, and HF·H₂O in various geometrical configurations. It has been found that the Coulombic interaction plays a dominant role in the stability of these hydrogen bonded systems. The method was further applied to the HCOOH·H₂O codimer in both the ground and excited singlet electronic states. The results were in accord with the well-known water solvent effects on the shifts of absorption spectral bands.     

Theoretical study of hydrogen bonded clusters of water and cyanic acid: Hydrogen bonding in terms of the molecular structure

Ab initio and density functional calculations were used to analyze the interaction between a molecule of cyanic acid (HOCN) and up to 4 molecules of water at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/6-311++G(d,p) computational levels. The cooperative effect (CE) is increased with the increasing size of the studied clusters. Red shifts of the H–O stretching frequency for complexes involving HOCN as an H-donor were predicted. The strength of the hydrogen bonds in terms of molecular structures could be deduced from a comparison of HOCN–H₂O with HCNO–H₂O, HONC–H₂O and HNCO–H₂O HB clusters. The atom in molecules (AIM) method was used to analyze the cooperative effects on topological parameters.

Glycine-based polymeric surfactants with varied polar head group: I. synthesis, characterization, and application in micellar electrokinetic chromatography

The monomers and polymers of four anionic amide type sodium undecenoxy carbonyl glycinate (SUCG) surfactants and four anionic carbamate type sodium undecenoyl glycinate (SUG) surfactants with 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-glycine unit as head group were synthesized and characterized. The CMC and aggregation number (A) for all eight surfactants were determined using fluorescence spectroscopy. In addition, the CMC values of these surfactants were also projected by surface tension and CE. The CMC of the monomers decreases with increases in the size of glycine head groups and correlates well when the fluorescence method was compared to CE. The A number increases and partial specific volume (V) decreases with increase in size of the head group of both monomers and polymers. However, A and V are always lower for the polymers than the corresponding monomers. The electrophoretic and chromatographic parameters of micelle polymers of SUG and SUCG were also examined. The coefficient of EOF increases with the increase in size of the head group but the electrophoretic mobility decreases which results in a decrease in the elution range. The retention data suggest that the selectivity differences among the mono-, di-, and tripeptide derivatives of poly-SUCG surfactants are relatively higher compared to the derivatives of poly-SUG series.     

Theoretical investigation of C–HM interactions in organometallic complexes: A natural bond orbital (NBO) study

The nature of C–HM agostic interactions in model metal complexes [M²⁺(CH₂CH₃)(PH₃)_nCl] (where M = Sc, Ti, V, Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn; n = 1, 2, 3, 4) was studied with the natural bond orbital analysis (NBO) approach using density functional theory (DFT) optimized geometries at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory. The effect of nature of metal, coordination number, oxidation state and ligand field effects on the agostic interaction is examined. A set of 20 crystal structures of organometallic complexes taken from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) was studied computationally employing AIM theory and NBO analysis, and the applicability of these methods was critically accessed in demarcating the two types of interaction.     

Complexation of tetrandrine with calcium ion probed by various spectroscopic methods and molecular modeling

The formation of the complex between tetrandrine and the calcium ion, in solution, was studied using FTIR, UV-Vis, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and electrospray mass spectroscopy spectroscopic methods and molecular modeling. The calcium salts used were: Ca(ClO₄)₂·4H₂O and Ca(Picrate)₂ in the solvents: acetonitrile (CH₃CN), deuterated acetonitrile (CD₃CN) and tetrahydrofurane (THF). The determined complex stability constant was: 20277±67 dm³ mol⁻¹ and corresponding free energy ΔG₀=−5.820±0.002 kcal mol⁻¹. The molecular simulation of the complex formation with the MM3 Augmented force field integrated in CAChe provided useful data about its energy. Combining the experimental results and molecular modeling we propose a model for the structure of tetrandrine-Ca complex with an eight coordinated geometry.     

Structure and dynamics of methanol in water: a quantum mechanical charge field molecular dynamics study

An ab initio quantum mechanical charge field molecular dynamics simulation was carried out for one methanol molecule in water to analyze the structure and dynamics of hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups. It is found that water molecules around the methyl group form a cage-like structure whereas the hydroxyl group acts as both hydrogen bond donor and acceptor, thus forming several hydrogen bonds with water molecules. The dynamic analyses correlate well with the structural data, evaluated by means of radial distribution functions, angular distribution functions, and coordination number distributions. The overall ligand mean residence time, τ identifies the methanol molecule as structure maker. The relative dynamics data of hydrogen bonds between hydroxyl of methanol and water molecules prove the existence of both strong and weak hydrogen bonds. The results obtained from the simulation are in excellent agreement with the experimental results for dilute solution of CH(3)OH in water. The overall hydration shell of methanol consists in average of 18 water molecules out of which three are hydrogen bonded.     

Proton dynamics in an extended array of hydrogen bonds: normal coordinates, proton transfer and macroscopic quantum entanglement in the ground state

After a brief introduction to neutron scattering techniques, illustrated with the scattering function for harmonic oscillators, some new aspects of proton dynamics in the KHCO₃ crystal are presented. The full scattering function for the proton modes measured on single crystals provides a graphic view of proton dynamics. Vibrational states are fully characterized with three quantum numbers. The effective oscillator mass of 1 amu confirms the decoupling of protons from the lattice. Combining infrared, Raman and inelastic neutron scattering techniques, the double minimum potential for the transfer of a single proton along hydrogen bonds is totally determined. Elastic neutron scattering techniques probe dynamics in the fully degenerate ground state. Quantum entanglement arising from normal coordinates gives rise to quantum interference. With diffraction techniques, the dynamical structure arising from large-scale quantum coherence is observed as ridges of intensity, well separated from Bragg's peaks. The vibrational wave function in the ground state must be regarded as a superposition of non-factorable macroscopic wave function.     

Excited‐State Hydrogen Bonding Strengthening and Weakening with Intramolecular Charge Transfer in Resorufin‐Water Complexes: A TD‐DFT Study

The geometric structures, infrared spectra and hydrogen bond binding energies of the various hydrogen‐bonded Res^?‐water complexes in states S0 and S1 have been calculated using the density functional theory (DFT) and time‐dependent density functional theory (TD‐DFT) methods, respectively. Based on the changes of the hydrogen bond lengths and binding energies as well as the spectral shifts of the vibrational mode of the hydroxyl groups, it is demonstrated that hydrogen bonds HB‐II, HB‐III and HB‐IV are strengthened while hydrogen bond HB‐I is weakened in the four singly hydrogen‐bonded Res^?‐Water complexes upon photoexcitation. When the four hydrogen bonds are formed simultaneously between one resorufin anion and four water molecules in the Res^?‐4Water complex, all the hydrogen bonds are weakened in both the ground and excited states compared with those in the corresponding singly hydrogen‐bonded Res^?‐Water complexes. Furthermore, in complex Res^?‐4Water, hydrogen bonds HB‐II and HB‐IV are strengthened while hydrogen bonds HB‐I and HB‐III are weakened after the electronic excitation. The hydrogen bond strengthening and weakening in the various hydrogen‐bonded Res^?‐water complexes should be due to the redistribution of the charges among the four heteroatoms (O_1‐3 and N₁) within the resorufin molecule upon the optical excitation.     

Syntheses and crystal structures of two 2D coordination polymers of cobalt(II) and nickel(II) with the Malonate Dianion Ligand

Two 2D complexes, [Co(mal)(phen)(H₂O)₂] (1) and [Ni(mal)(phen)(H₂O)₂] (2) (mal?=?malonate dianion; phen?=?1,10-phenanthroline), have been synthesized by the reaction of Co(ClO₄)₂·6H₂O and Ni(ClO₄)₂·6H₂O with disodium malonate and 1,10-phenanthroline in MeOH/H₂O solution. Their crystal structures have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The structures of Complexes 1 and 2 show that each metal ion is coordinated by one 1,10-phenanthroline, two water molecules and a malonate ligand forming a distorted octahedral environment and each mononuclear fragment forms a 2D supramolecular network through H-bonding interactions.     

Oxazolidine-2-thiones: a molecular modeling study

Two oxazolidine-2-thiones, thio-analogs of linezolid, were synthesized and their antibacterial properties evaluated. Unlike oxazolidinones, the thio-analogs did not inhibit the growth of Gram positive bacteria. A molecular modeling study has been carried out to aid understanding of this unexpected finding.     

Glycine-based polymeric surfactants with varied polar head group: II. chemical selectivity in micellar electrokinetic chromatography using linear solvation energy relationships

A series of four acyl and four alkenoxy glycinates (i.e., mono-, di-, tri-, and tetraderivatives of polysodium N-undecenoyl glycinate (poly-SUGs) as well as polysodium N-undecenoxy carbonyl glycinates (poly-SUCGs)) were compared for simultaneous separation of nonhydrogen bonding (NHB), hydrogen-bond acceptor (HBA), and hydrogen-bond donor (HBD) solutes. An increase in the number of glycine units in the polar head group of polymeric surfactant decreases both the retention and the migration window of all solutes with some changes in separation selectivity. The poly(sodium N-undecenoxy carbonyl-glycinate) (poly-SUCG1) with one glycine unit was the least polar surfactant and has the lowest phase ratio, but this monoglycinate surfactant provided the best simultaneous separation of 10-NHBs and 8-HBAs. On the other hand, 9-HBDs were well separated using any of the six mono-, di-, and triglycinate surfactants compared to the two tetraglycinates. Linear solvation energy relationships (LSERs) and separation of the geometrical isomers studies were also performed to further envisage the selectivity differences. From LSER studies, the phase ratio and hydrogen-bond-donating strength of the poly-SUG series of surfactant were found to increase with an increase in the size of the head group, but no clear trends were observed for poly-SUCG surfactants. The cohesiveness for all poly-SUG and poly-SUCG was positive, but the values were generally lower (with exception of the poly(sodium N-undecenoyl glycyl-glycyl-glycinate)) at a higher number of glycine units. Finally, the poly(sodium N-undecenoyl glycinate) and poly-SUCG1 were found to be the two best polymeric surfactants as they provided relatively higher shape selectivity for separation of two of the three sets of geometrical isomers.     

IR spectroscopy investigation of molecular association in the acetone-trichlormethane mixture

A significant increase in the stretching band intensity of trichloromethane in IR spectra of its solutions in acetone with increasing acetone mole fraction indicates the formation of hydrogen bonds between their molecules. The integral absorption coefficient (α) of this vibration is calculated. Experimental values of α are approximated by a theoretical dependence using the nonlinear least-squares method; association parameters are obtained. The relative volume fractions of H-bonded and free trichloromethane molecules are calculated depending on the total trichloromethane volume fraction in solution. The structure of the H-bonded associate is determined by quantum chemical calculations.     

Effective way of modeling chemical catalysis: Empirical valence bond picture of role of solvent and catalyst in alkylation reactions

A general methodology for the study of chemical catalysis is presented and demonstrated in a study of Friedel–Crafts‐type alkylation reactions that are constrained to collinear configurations. Ab initio potential energy surfaces in solution and relevant experimental results are used to calibrate general empirical valence bond (EVB) potential surfaces for studies of such reactions. The EVB surfaces allow one to interpolate the ab initio results to studies of the effect of different solvents, substituents, and catalysts on the alkylation reactions. This implicit approach introduces such effects by shifting the diagonal energies of the corresponding resonance structures. Such an EVB/shift approach appears valuable for assessing the effects of different catalysts and solvents on complex chemical reactions. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Zinc(II) complexes with an imidazolylpyridine ligand: luminescence and hydrogen bonding

ZnLCl and [H₂L]₂[ZnCl₄], based on 2-(1-hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine (HL), have been synthesized. There is a short intraionic O–H···N hydrogen bond between the hydroxyimidazolyl and pyridyl of H₂L⁺ cations (N···O 2.608(2)?Å) in the structure of [H₂L]₂[ZnCl₄]. The formation of this rather strong hydrogen bond is confirmed by IR spectroscopy through a broad band at 3200–2200?cm^?1 and a band at 1655?cm^?1. HL crystallizes in the form of a hemihydrate, HL·0.5H₂O. HL assemble into infinite helical chains due to N–H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the NH of imidazole and O of the N-oxide (O···N 2.623(2)?Å). An unusual mid-IR pattern with three broad bands at 3373, 2530, and 1850?cm^?1 is typical for strong hydrogen bonds, explained by resonance-assisted hydrogen bonding occurring in the helical chains. On cooling to 5?K, noticeable changes in the IR spectra of [H₂L]₂[ZnCl₄] and HL·0.5H₂O were observed. ZnLCl and [H₂L]₂[ZnCl₄] exhibit bright photoluminescence with maxima of emission at 458?nm (for ZnLCl) and 490?nm (for [H₂L]₂[ZnCl₄]).     

Investigations of rotamers in diaxial Sn(IV)porphyrin phenolates—towards a molecular timepiece

An approach to the formation of molecular timepieces is outlined based on differentiating between rotamers in diaxial Sn(IV) porphyrin phenolates. Two models are explored in detail. The first explores how the rates of rotation of the diaxial ligands is discriminated based on steric hindrance of the two porphyrin macrocycle faces at low temperature. The second model explores a ‘stopwatch’ function based on the ligation of Ag(I) ions to a 5,15-dipyridylporphyrinato tin(IV) complex bearing 3-hydroxypyridine ligands. The complexation inhibits rotation of the axial ligand, a result, which can be reversed by precipitation of Ag(I) using tetraethylammonium bromide. X-ray crystallography has also been used to characterize two Ag(I) 5,15-dipyridylporphyrinato tin(IV)complexes. The two isoforms differ in their supramolecular organization. One structure is formed through a cofacial stack linking each porphyrin by Ag(I) coordination. The other displays a sheet-like coordination polymer structure.
