Theoretical Study of Hydrated Cd~（2＋） Interactions with Guanine

Theoretical study was performed to investigate how the hydration of cadmium ca-tion influences the structure and properties of guanine.The aqueous environment was simulated by both explicit solvent(1-5 water molecules) model and implicit solvent model.For complexes in which Cd2+ attached to the N(7) and O(6) sites of guanine,energy analysis together with the Natural Bonding Orbital(NBO) analysis were performed to elucidate the bonding characteristics in detail.The most stable structures are penta-coordinate complexes without aqua ligand located at the guanine site.Higher number of water ligands corresponds to higher stabilization energies.Average bonding energies of G-Cd increase with the number of water molecules.Bonding energies of water ligands depend on its position in the complexes.The charge distribution of guanine changed with increasing the number of water ligands,which may also influence the base-pairing pattern of guanine.There is positive charge transfer from guanine to aqua ligand as the number of the hydration waters increases.IEFPCM optimization has results comparable to the [CdG(H2O)5]2+ structure 5a.

过渡金属偶氮苯衍生物二阶非线性光学性质的密度泛函理论研究

采用含时密度泛函理论方法(TDDFT)计算了IB族过渡金属及第5周期的金属杂化偶氮苯生色团的二阶非线性光学极化率。研究了金属杂化偶氮苯生色团的电子激发跃迁。结果表明, 与金属离子络合后的杂化偶氮苯生色团, 二阶非线性光学极化率明显改变, 是金属的推拉电子效应的结果。IB族金属的在原有机偶氮苯共轭体系的电荷转移方向的强拉电子效应, 增大了电荷转移范围, 使二阶非线性光学极化率增大。与Nb络合的杂化生色团, 沿原电荷转移相反的方向拉动电荷, 电荷转移跃迁局限于金属离子附近, 未能产生大的激发跃迁偶极矩, 体系的二阶非线性光学响应因而降低。激发跃迁能量是另一个主要影响因素, 同一类跃迁中, 金属杂化生色团的跃迁能量越低, 其二阶非线性光学响应就越大。络合Rh的生色团与Nb杂化生色团类似, 电荷转移跃迁范围都比较小, 同时由于Rh与羧基结合时几乎垂直羧基平面, 电荷同时沿X, Y方向转移跃迁, 属于二维电荷转移类型。     

Ultra-incompressible Ternary Diborides Re_（0.5）Ir_（0.5）B_2,Re_（0.5）Tc_（0.5）B_2,Os_（0.5）W_（0.5）B_2 and Os_（0.5）Ru_（0.5）B_2：Density Functional Calculation

In this paper, density functional computations have been applied to the structural, elastic and electronic properties of ternary transition metal diborides Re0.5Ir0.5B2, Re0.5Tc0.5B2, Os0.5W0.5B2 and Os0.5Ru0.5B2 in hexagonal (P63/mmc) and orthorhombic (Pmmn) structures with both local density approximation and generalized gradient approximation. LDA gives smaller lattice parameters and larger elastic moduli than GGA. Both results show that the hexagonal ones are more stable than orthorhombic ones except Os0.5Ru0.5B2. Moreover, the hexagonal structure has superior elastic property than orthorhombic one. Generally speaking, the calculated elastic moduli of Re0.5Ir0.5B2 and Os0.5Ru0.5B2 are smaller than those values of Re0.5Tc0.5B2 and Os0.5W0.5B2 within the same structure because of the filling of antibonding states. The relativistic effects result in weaker bonds of Tc-B (Ru-B) than those of Re-B (Os-B). All the diborides are ultra-incompressible. Re0.5Tc0.5B2 has the largest shear modulus and it is a promising superhard diboride like Os0.5W0.5B2. The elastic properties are in high correlation with the bond strength. The shear moduli are more sensitive than the bulk moduli to the bond strength.

Theoretical Studies on the First Hyperpolarizabilities of One-dimensional Donor-bridge-acceptor Chromophores

The ground-state dipole moments and second-order nonlinear optical （NLO） properties of a series of one-dimensional （1D） chromophores with donor-bridge-acceptor （D-B-A） structures have been investigated by using the second-order MФller-Plesset （MP2） and density functional theory （DFT） methods with the basis set of 6-31＋G（d）. According to the calculated results, the relationship between the molecular static first hyperpolarizability （βμ） and the directions of electron transition has been summarized. In terms of the sign of βμ, these 1D organic chromophores were classified into two categories： type Ⅰ with negative βμ and type Ⅱ bearing positive βμ. The analyses show that the remarkable difference of the first hyperpolarizabilities between Ⅰ and Ⅱ chromophores is associated mainly with the electrostatic interaction between terminal groups and the transport electrons in excited states. Moreover, different from the popular viewpoint, the obtained results also show that most of this series of 1D D-B-A molecules are more charge-separated in the ground states than in the excited states. As a whole, this theoretical investigation, to some extent, can be considered as a useful reference in designing the NLO chromophores with large first hyperpolarizabilities.     

TDDFT Study on the Electronic Excitations and First Hyperpolarizabilities of Mixed-metal Carbonyl Clusters W2Ir2（μ-L）（CO）8（η^5-C5H4Me）2（L = dppe/dppf）

Mixed-metal carbonyl clusters of W2Ir2（CO）10（η^5-C5H4Me）2 1 and W2Ir2（μ-L）（CO）8（η^5-C5H4Me）2 （L = dppe 2, dppf 3） have been studied by TDDFT method focusing on their electronic and nonlinear optical properties. These three clusters exhibit the first static hyperpolarizabilities of medium magnitude （βtot-10×10^-30 esu）. The origin of β is discussed by the new proposed orbital-pair decomposition scheme by Barandes et al. The result suggests that the β values of the two clusters are mainly originated from d-d electron transition within the metal skeleton, and d-p （π＊） electron transition from metals to carbonyls and phenyl. The additional coordination by the electron donor group, ferrocene, makes cluster 3 own much larger β values, and the relatively longer range charge transfer from d orbitals of ferrocene to d orbirals of Ir and W is responsible for the enhanced β values.     

In vivo visible light-triggered drug release from an implanted depot

Controlling chemistry in space and time has offered scientists and engineers powerful tools for research and technology. For example, on-demand photo-triggered activation of neurotransmitters has revolutionized neuroscience. Non-invasive control of the availability of bioactive molecules in living organisms will undoubtedly lead to major advances; however, this requires the development of photosystems that efficiently respond to regions of the electromagnetic spectrum that innocuously penetrate tissue. To this end, we have developed a polymer that photochemically degrades upon absorption of one photon of visible light and demonstrated its potential for medical applications. Particles formulated from this polymer release molecular cargo in vitro and in vivo upon irradiation with blue visible light through a photoexpansile swelling mechanism.

The behaviors of phase transition shown in disassymbly processes of very hot and dilute finite nuclear system have been exposed by using canonical (microcanonical) ensemble Monte Carlo simulation.It is explained that they result from the competition between Coulomb interaction and the effect of finiteness.
