  • Molecular hydrogen dimer, ($H_2)_2$ is a weakly bound van der Waals complex. The configuration of two hydrogen molecules and the potential well structure of the dimer have been the subjects of various studies among chemists and astrophysicists. In this study, we used DFT, MCG2, and MCG3 methods to determine the structure and energy of the molecular hydrogen dimer. We compared the results with previously reported ab initio method results. The ab initio results were also recalculated for comparison. All optimized geometries obtained from the MP2 and DFT methods are T-shaped. The H-H bond lengths for the dimer are almost the same as those of monomer. The center-to-center distance depeds on the levels of theory and the size of the basis sets. The bond lengths of the $H_2$ molecule from the MCG2 and MCG3 methods are shown to be in excellent agreement with the experimental value. The geometry of optimized dimer is T-shaped, and the well depths for the dimerization potential are very small, being 23 $cm-^1$ and 27 $cm-^1$ at the MCG2 and MCG3 levels, respectively. In general the MP2 level of theory predicts stronger van der Waals than the DFT, and agrees better with the MCG2 and MCG3 theories.

  • The electronic transitions from the ground state to low-lying excited states of CF₃OH have been investigated using high level ab initio quantum mechanical techniques. Also the possible photodissociation procedures of CF₃OH have been considered. The highest level employed in this study is TZP CCSD(T) level of theory. The possible four low-lying excited states can result by the excitation of the lone pair electron (n) in oxygen to σ$^*$ molecular orbital in C-O or O-H bond. The vertical transition (n → σ$^*$) energy is predicted to be 220.5 kcal/mol (130 nm) at TZ2P CISD level to theory. The bond dissociation energies of CF₃OH to CF₃O +H and CF₃+OH have been predicted to be 119.5 kcal/mol and 114.1 kcal/mol, respectively, at TZP CCSD level of theory. In addition, the transition state for the unimolecular decomposition of CF₃OH into CF₂O + HF has been examined. The activation energy and energy separation for this decomposition have been computed to be 43.6kcal/mol and 5.0 kcal/mol including zero-point vibrational energy corrections at TZP CCSD(T) level of theory.ed phenols were also estimated.

  • HOOCl-H2O cluster에 대하여 안정한 구조와 결합에너지를 MP2/6-311G(d,p), MP2/6-311G(2d,2p)의 방법으로 계산하였고 vibrational frequency계산을 하여 HOOCl의 vibrational frequency와 비교하였다. Skew HOOCl-H2O cluster가 가장 안정한 cluster로 나타났고 결합에너지는 46~48 kJ/mol 정도이며 trans HOOCl-H2O cluster의 경우도 이보다 불안정하나 비교적 큰 결합에너지를 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Using ab initio density functional theory, we investigate the dimerization and one-dimensional (1-D) polymerization of metal-encapsulated gold nanoclusters, M@$Au_{12}$ (M=W, Mo) and their structural and electronic properties. M@$Au_{12}$ clusters with a magic number 13 can form icosahedral and cuboctahedral structures. We consider various dimer configurations with different compounds and symmetries to find the most stable dimer structure in each case. Au atoms in the one cluster, which participate directly in dimerization, tend to form triangular bonds together with counterpart Au atoms in the other. It is found that both M@$Au_{12}$ and M@$Au_{12}$ clusters are stabilized by about 3 eV due to dimerization. We also calculate and compare the electronic and magnetic properties of different dimerized clusters. Based on our investigation on dimerization, we further study on 1-D polymerization of M@$Au_{12}$ with different compounds and symmetries. We will also discuss their formation energies as well as their electronic and magnetic properties.

  • The geometrical structures of pyridazin-3-one derivatives (4,5-dihalopyridazin-3-one and 4-halo-5- alkoxypyridazin-3-one) with various functional and substituent groups were fully optimized using the ab initio Hartree-Fock (HF) and second order Moller-Plesset perturbation (MP2) methods. At the N2-, C4-, and C5- positions on the pyridazin-3-one rings, the structural and electronic features pertaining to the variations of the functional and substituent groups were analyzed, respectively. The trends in the variation of the bond lengths, atomic charges, and energetics (relative energy, binding energy) of the derivatives induced by changing the electron donating functional groups (X1 = OMe, OEt) to electron withdrawing groups (X1 = Cl, NO2) were examined. The variations of the bond lengths, atomic charges, and binding energies with the electron withdrawing strength of the substituent groups (Y = Me → F) were also investigated.

  • We report here the results on N-acetyl-N'-methylamide of 4-fluoroproline (Ac-Flp-NHMe) calculated using the ab initio molecular orbital method with the self-consistent reaction field (SCRF) theory at the HF level with the 6-31+G(d) basis set to investigate the stereoelectronic effects on the conformational preference of proline depending on the cis/trans peptide bonds and down/up puckerings along the backbone torsion angle $\square$ in the gas phase, chloroform, and water. In the gas phase, all potential energy surfaces for Ac-Flp-NHMe are quite similar to those of Ac-Pro-NHMe, except that up-puckered conformations are more stabilized than down-puckered ones. In chloroform and water, polyproline structures become dominant, whose populations are larger than those of Ac-Pro-NHMe. In chloroform and water, the populations of polyproline II (i.e., tF conformations) are quite similar to each other, but those of polyproline I (i.e., cF conformations) are larger by 5% in water than in chloroform. In particular, all cis populations for Ac-Flp-NHMe in the gas phase, chloroform, and water are decreased than those of Ac-Pro-NHMe.
