Continuum Monte Carlo simulation of phase transitions in rod-like molecules at surfaces
1994
Stiff rod-like chain molecules with harmonic bond length potentials and trigonometric bond angle potentials are used to model Langmuir monolayers at high densities. One end of the rod-like molecules is strongly bound to a flat two-dimensional substrate which represents the air-water interface. A ground-state analysis is performed which suggests phase transitions between phases with and without collective uniform tilt. Large-scale off-lattice Monte Carlo simulations over a wide temperature range show in addition to the tilting transition the presence of a strongly constrained melting transition at high temperatures. The latter transition appears to be related to two-dimensional melting of th…
A theoretical determination of the dissociation energy of the nitric oxide dimer
1994
Multi-reference CI methods have been applied to determine the dissociation energy and structure of thecis-N2O2 molecule. The convergence of the theoretical result has been checked with respect to a systematic expansion of the one-electron basis set and the multi-reference CI wave function. The best calculated value, 13.8 kJ/mol, is in agreement with the experimental value, 12.2 kJ/mol. It has been obtained with an extended ANO-type basis set [6s5p3d2f], including the effect of the basis set superposition error (BSSE) in the geometry optimization, and additional effects, such as the electron correlation of core electrons and relativistic corrections, using the average coupled pair functional…
AM1 prediction of the equilibrium geometry of Si60
1993
Abstract AM1 calculations have been carried out to determine the equilibrium geometry of Si 60 . The predicted I h geometry shows that bonds may be clearly identified as single (2.297 A) or aromatic (2.092 A). Several analogies and differences between Si 60 and C 60 are pointed out. Especially remarkable is the bigger size of the Si 60 cluster, which is predicted to have a radius 2 A larger than that of the C 60 cluster. Results are compared to other levels of theory.
Experimental and theoretical studies of the molecular and crystal structures of trialkoxy- and chlorodialkoxy-stibanes
2001
The molecular structures of triisopropoxystibane, Sb((OPr)-Pr-i)(3), and chlorodiisopropoxystibane, SbCl((OPr)-Pr-i)(2), were determined in the solid state by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Sb((OPr)-Pr-i)(3) forms discrete centrosymmetric dimers in the solid state via Sb . . .O-Sb interactions, leading to pseudo trigonal bipyramidal configurations of the four co-ordinate Sb atoms, while SbCl((OPr)-Pr-i)(2) forms chains via Sb . . .O-Sb and Sb . . . Cl-Sb bridges, resulting in five-co-ordinate Sb atoms with pseudo octahedral configurations. Comparison of the solid state structures and the density functional optimized molecular structures of Sb(OMe)(3), SbCl(OMe)(2) and their dimers reveal…
Octahedral distortion caused by hydrogen bonding in tris(diethylammonium) hexachloridoantimonate(III).
2010
The factors influencing the distortion of inorganic anions in the structures of chloridoantimonates(III) with organic cations, in spite of numerous structural studies on those compounds, have not been clearly described and separated. The title compound, [(C(2)H(5))(2)NH(2)](3)[SbCl(6)], consisting of isolated distorted [SbCl(6)](3-) octahedra that have C(3) symmetry and [(C(2)H(5))(2)NH(2)](+) cations, unequivocally shows the role played by hydrogen bonding in the geometry variations of inorganic anions. The organic cations, which are linked to the inorganic substructure through N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds, are clearly responsible for the distortion of the octahedral coordination of Sb(III) in …
Analysis of the CIPSI/DCCI approach to characterize the HF AND F2 single bond
1990
Abstract The aim of the present work is to account for the main differential correlation contributions occurring during the bond breaking process of HF and F2 molecules in an accurate and inexpensive way. Starting from the dissociation-consistent configuration interaction (DCCI) scheme by Goddard and co-workers the corresponding contributions are evaluated within the framework reported by Malrieu and co-workers, namely configuration interaction by perturbation with multiconfigurational zeroth-order wavefunction selected by iterative process (CIPSI). In addition, the DCCI scheme has been improved by introducing the dispersion effects associated with the valence MOs adjacent to the bond. The …
Theoretical Characterization of the Electronic Structure of Poly(Heteroaromatic Vinylenes)
1990
Since the pioneering work of the mid-seventies, the number of organic π-conjugated polymers, that can be made highly conducting upon appropriate chemical treatment, has grown tremendously. Among the most studied of these compounds are those based on fivemembered heteroaromatic rings, such as polythiophene (PT) and polypyrrole (PPy). The attractiveness of these polymers, relative to polyacetylene (PA) and poly(p-phenylene) (PPP), is the high chemical and thermal stability they show.1
Diisopropyl [(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)methyl]phosphonate
2003
The bond lengths and angles in the title compound, C17H23PO4, are in accordance with anticipated values. There are two conformers in the asymmetric unit. They differ from each other in the orientation of the C and P tetrahedra. Analysis of the structure does not reveal any significant differences between the bond distances and angles of the molecules in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal structure, the conformers are linked by O—H⋯O=P and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
Preparation, crystal structure at 298 and 90 K and phase transition in (C2H5NH3)2 [SbBr5] studied by the single crystal X-ray diffraction method
2004
The reaction of antimony(III) oxide with ethylamine, in molar ratios from 1:1 to 1:10, in concentrated hydrobromic acid leads to the formation of one product - bis(ethylammonium) pentabromoantimonate( III). The structure of (C2H5NH3)2[SbBr5] was determined at 298 and 90 K, below and above the phase transition that occurs at about 158.5 K. The orthorhombic system was found in both phases, space groups Cmca and Pbca at 298 and 90 K, respectively. At both temperatures the structure consists of [SbBr6]3− octahedra connected via cis bromine atoms forming one-dimensional zig-zag [{SbBr5}2−]n chains. The ethylammonium cations fill the space between polyanionic chains. The organic and inorganic sub…
