Charge density analysis for crystal engineering
نویسندگان
چکیده
This review reports on the application of charge density analysis in the field of crystal engineering, which is one of the most growing and productive areas of the entire field of crystallography. While methods to calculate or measure electron density are not discussed in detail, the derived quantities and tools, useful for crystal engineering analyses, are presented and their applications in the recent literature are illustrated. Potential developments and future perspectives are also highlighted and critically discussed. Graphical abstractᅟ

Density Functional Studies on Crystal Structure and electronic properties of Potassium Alanate as a candidate for Hydrogen storage
Potassium Alanate is one of the goal candidates for hydrogen storage during past decades. In this report, initially the Density Functional Theory was applied to simulate the electronic and structural characteristic of the experimentally known KAlH4 complex hydride. The relaxation of unit cell parameters and atomic positions was performed until the total residual force reduced less than 0.001ev ...
متن کاملTheoretical investigations on molecular structure, NBO, HOMO-LUMO and MEP analysis of two crystal structures of N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl: A DFT study
The N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl derivatives are important models for studying of three-centered intramolecular hydrogen bonding in organic molecules. The quantum theoretical calculations for two crystal structures of N-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl (compounds I and II) were performed by Density Functional Theory (B3LYP method and 6-311+G* basis set). From the optimized structures, geometric paramet...
متن کاملA theoretical study on halogen-π interactions: X-C2-Y…C8H8 complexes
M06-2X functional was employed to study halogen-π interactions in X-C2-Y…C8H8 complexes (X, Y=H, F, Cl, and Br). In fact, interactions of mono- or di-halogenated acetylenes and planar cyclooctatetraene as an anti-aromatic π system were considered. Relationship between binding energies of the complexes and charge transfer effects was investigated. Also, electronic charge density values were calc...
متن کاملN, S-Codoped TiO2/Fe2O3 Heterostructure Assemblies for Electrochemical Degradation of Crystal Violet Dye
In contemporary research, “Heterostructure” assemblies play an important role in energy conversion systems, wherein the composite assemblies facilitate faster charge carrier transport across the material interfaces. The improved/enhanced efficiency metrics in these systems (electro/photo-electrochemical processes/devices) is due to synergistic interaction and synchronized charge transport a...
متن کاملCharge density and optical properties of multicomponent crystals containing active pharmaceutical ingredients or their analogues.
Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), through their favourable donor/acceptor spatial distribution and synthon formation flexibility, are attractive building blocks in modern materials crystallography. The optical properties of a crystal strongly depend on two factors, i.e. the spatial distribution of molecules in the crystal structure and the electronic properties of molecular building blo...
