A quantum chemical investigation was carried out to study the properties of intermolecular F•••F, Br•••Br and Br•••O interactions in crystalline 1-bromo-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-nitrobenzene (BFNB). This system was selected to mimic the halogen-halogen as well as halogen bonding interactions found within crystal structures as well as within biological systems. We found that fluorine atoms have weak ...

The DO1(18c6)fi (MwLi. Na. K and I 8c6=18-crown-6) complexes have been chosen as the model systems toinvestigate the nature of chemical bonds between alkali metal cations and large mffitidentaie orgmnic ligands.The B3LYP/6-3I+G(d,p) level of calculation has been used for obtaining equilibrium geernetnes and p(r)functions (electron density distributions). By the aid of fundamental physical theor...

We present a theory of desorption of atoms and molecules from solid surfaces based on a chtssical stochastic diffusion formulation. We obtain a simple rate expression which has the form R = (D,/2n) j(T) exp( D,/k,), where T is the temperature, k is Boltxmann’s constant, 0, is the bond enthalpy, and sd, is the surface-adsorbate vibrational frequency. For atoms j(T) = 1, while for molecules j(T) ...

Electrical sensitivity of a Boron Nitride Nano Tube (BNNT) was examined toward hydroquinone (C6H4(OH)2), cyanogens (C2N2), methylacetylene (C3H4), ethylacetylene (C4H6), aniline (C6H5NH2), ethanol (C2H5OH), pyrrole (C4H...

The influence of cation-π interactions on the strength and nature of intramolecular O...H hydrogen bond has been investigated by quantum chemical calculations in orthohydroxy benzaldehyde (HBA) compound. Ab initio calculations have been performed at MP2/6-311++G** level of theory. Vibrational frequencies and physical properties such as chemical potential and chemical hardness of these compounds...
