Studies on the Interaction of Dinitratobis（phen） Cadmium Complex with DNA

DNA-binding properties of the dinitratobis（phen） cadmium complex [Cd（phen）2（NO3）2] （where phen = 1,10-phenanthroline） have been investigated with absorption titration, fluorescence spectroscopy, viscosity measurement, molecular modeling and density functional theory （DFT） calculations. The results indictate DNA-binding mode of the complex to be weak groove binding rather than partial intercalative interaction expected of the extended planar aromatic phen ring. In addition, the DNA cleavage study was carried out by gel electrophoresis experiment. The results showed that the complex both hardly cleaves pBR322 DNA in the absence and present ascorbate. So it is suggested that the formation of cadmium complex can decrease cadmium toxicity to some extents.     

Comparative Study of Hypophosphite H2PO2^- Adsorption on Ni（111） and Ag（111） Surfaces by DFT

Surface structures and electronic properties of hypophosphite H2PO2^- on Ni（111） and Ag（111） surfaces were investigated by means of density functional theory at B3LYP/6-31 ＋ ＋G（d,p） level. The most stable structure was that in which the H2PO2^- adsorbs with its two P--O bonds faced to the substrate surface. The results of the Mulliken population analysis showed that because of the subtle difference of electron configuration, the adsorption energy was larger on the Ni surface than on the Ag surface, and the amounts of both donation and back donation were larger on the Ni（111） surface than on the Ag（111） surface. There were more negative Mulliken charge transfer from H2PO2^- to substrate clusters on Ni surface than on Ag surface and more positive Mulliken charges on P atom in Ni4H2PO2^- than in Ag4H2PO2^-, which means that P atom in Ni4H2PO2^- is easily attacked by a nucleophile such as OH . Thus, H2PO2^- is more easily oxidated on Ni（111） surface than on Ag（111） suface. These results indicated that the silver surface is inactive for the oxidation reaction of the hypophosphite anion.

Theoretical Investigation on the Absorption and Emission Properties of the Three Isomers of Bis（thiocyanato）（2,2^1-bipyridyl）platinum（ll）

This paper presents a Density Functional or Time Dependent Density Functional （DFT/TDDFT） study of the molecular and electronic structures, optical absorption and emission spectra of three linkage isomers： bis（isothiocyanato-S）（2,2^1-bipyridyl） platinum（II） （[Pt（SCN）2（bpy）]）, （isothiocyanato-S）（thiocyanato-N）-（2,2^1-bipy- ridyl） platinum（II） （[Pt（SCN）（NCS）（bpy）]）, and bis（thiocyanato-N）（2,2^1）-bipyridyl）platinum（II） （[Pt（NCS）2（bpy）]）, in which different coordination ligands based on the N- and S-coordination of the thiocyanato ligands control the luminescent color. The electronic structures were studied using the B3LYP functional. Optimized geometries Were compared to the experimentally observed structures. TDDFT calculation was carded out to investigate the excited singlet and triplet states. Calculations have been performed both in vacuo and in solvents, using a polarized continuum model （PCM） to account for solute-solvent interactions. Inclusion of the solvent led to a significant energy change, and as a consequence, the computed spectrum calculated in the presence of the solvent was in good agree- ment with the experimental determinations. The first two absorptions were found to originate from mixed plati- num-SCN （or NSC） to bipyridyl-n＊ transitions rather than pure metal-to-ligand-charge-transfer （MLCT） transitions, whereas the higher-energy bands arose from intraligand n→π＊ transitions. The stretching frequencies of C≡N have been calculated both in the ground and excited states, which are relative to the charge transition during the excitation. In addition, different sizes of basis sets were also discussed in this paper.     

Investigation of the Adsorption and Self Assembly of Isocyanide Derivatives on Au（111） Surface

The adsorption and self-assembly of isocyanide derivatives on Au（111） surface were investigated by density functional theory （DFF） and molecular dynamics simulation. The calculation for phenyl isocyanide by DFT was based on cluster and slab models. The self-assembled monolayers of 2-isocyanoazulene and 1,3-diethoxycarbony 1- 2-isocyanoazulene on Au（111） were simulated using Au-C force field parameters developed by us. It was found that the top site was the most preferred position, and the isocyanoazulene and its derivatives could form the ordered face to edge self-assembled monolayer on gold surface indeed, and the molecules stood on the gold surface vertically.     

A DFT Study of Thiophene Adsorption on the Rh（111） Surfaces

Thiophene adsorption on the Rh(111) surfaces has been investigated by density functional theory.The results show that the adsorption at the hollow and bridge sites is the most stable.The molecular plane of the thiophene ring is distorted,the C=C bond is stretched to 1.448  and the C-C bond is shortened to 1.390.The C-H bonds tilt 22～42oaway from the surface.The calculated adsorption geometries are in reasonable agreement with population analysis and density of states.The thiophene molecule obtains 0.74 electrons,reflecting the interaction between the lone pair of sulfur and the d-orbitals of metal.The reaction paths and transition states for desulfurization of the molecule have been investigated.The bridge adsorption structure of thiophene leads to a thiol via an activated reaction with an energetic barrier of 0.30 eV.This second step is slightly difficult,and dissociation into a C4H4 fragment and a sulfur atom is possible,with an energetic barrier of 0.40 eV.     

Stable Structure and Characteristic Spectroscopy of （CH3COCH3）n （n = 1-7） Clusters

The stable acetone molecule clusters have been studied by using Becke＇s threeparameter （B3LYP） density functional theory （DFT） with standard 6-31G（d） basis set. The calculated results show that the optimal structures of acetone clusters are cyclic and the cycles become larger and larger with the increase of cluster size. The strongest vibration peaks for neutral clusters are C=O stretching vibration. The C=O stretching peaks of cyclic acetone clusters split into double ones when n≥3, the frequencies are red-shifted and corresponding intensifies increase with the increase of cluster Size.

A density functional theory study on boundary of “superreduced” transition metal carbonyl anions [M(CO)n] (M=Cr, n=5, 4, 3, z=2, 4, 6; M=Mn, n=5, 4, 3, z=1, 3, 5; M=Fe, n=4, 3, 2, z=2, 4, 6; M=Co, n=4, 3, 2, z=1, 3, 5)

A nonlocal density functional theory (DFT) method has been applied to the calculations on optimized geometry, Mulliken atomic net charges and interatomic Mulliken bond orders as well as total bonding energies (E) in the binary transition metal carbonyl anions with different reduced states [M(CO)_n]^z− (M=Cr, n=5, 4, 3, z=2, 4, 6; M=Mn, n=5, 4, 3, z=1, 3, 5; M=Fe, n=4, 3, 2, z=2, 4, 6; M=Co, n=4, 3, 2, z=1, 3, 5). For comparison of relative stability, a relative stabilization energy D is defined as D=E([M(CO)_n]^z− )-nE(CO). The calculated C-O distances are lengthened monotonously with the increase of the anionic charge, but the M-C distances are significantly lengthened only in the higher reduced states. The relative stabilization energy calculated is a considerable negative value in the lower reduced states, but a larger positive value in the higher reduced states. The DFT calculations show that with the increase of the anionic charge, the Mulliken net charges on the M, C, and O atoms all increase, however, an excess of the anionic charge is mainly located at the central metal atom. The calculated C-O Mulliken bond orders decrease consistently with the increase of the anionic charge, but the M-C bond orders exhibit an irregular behavior. However, the total bond orders calculated clearly explain the higher reduced states to be considerably unstable. From analysis of the calculated results, it is deduced that the stability of the binary transition metal carbonyl anions [M(CO)_n]^z− studied are associated with the coordination number n and the anionic charge z, further, it is possible for the anions studied to be stable if n≥z, conversely, it is impossible when n<z.     

Structure and stability for (AlN)_n~+ and (AlN)_n~- (n=1-15) clusters

Using density functional theory (DFT) method with 6-31G* basis set, we have carried out the optimizing calculation of geometry, vibrational frequency and thermodynamical stability for(AIN)n+ and (AIN)n- (n =1-15) clusters. Moreover, their ionic potential (IP) and electron affinity(EA) were discussed. The results show that the electrical charge condition of the cluster has a relatively great impact on the structure of the cluster and with the increase of n, this kind of impactis reduced gradually. There are no AI-AI and N-N bonds in the stable structure of (AIN)n+ or (AIN)n-, and the AI-N bond is the sole bond type. The magic number regularity of (AIN)n+, and (AIN)n- is consistent with that for (AIN)n, indicating that the structure with even n such as 2, 4,6, … is more stable. In addition, (AIN)10 has the maximal ionization power (9.14 eV) and the minimal electron affinity energy (0.19 eV), which manifests that (AIN)10 is more stable than other clusters.
