Abstract:
The concept of hybridization and the principle of maximum overlap are invoked to explain the origin of the Rydberg character of the lowest excited MO of LiH. It is found that the nodal surface of this antibonding MO is not bisecting the bond. The origin of the Rydberg character of the lowest singlet and triplet MO's of the H2 molecule is studied by means of an energy partitioning. The repulsion of electrons is found to be responsible for the diffuse character of the excited so-called antibonding MO's. The singlet-triplet separation is controlled to a large extent by one-electron contributions.

Abstract:
Every molecule has two or more atoms linked to each other through a bond. The number of bonds between two atoms is called bond order. Hence, the bond order gives information about the total number of bonds between two atoms. Besides, different methods and definitions have been given to find out an exact bond order based on various theories. The most acceptable theory to find an exact bond order is the molecular orbital theory. Using this theory, the whole electronic configuration of the molecule is written first, then total electrons present in bonding orbitals as well as antibonding orbitals

The additional electrons and orbitals available on Z in comparison to H make for dramatic differences between the H-bond and the rest of the Z-bonds.

AbstractThe first-principles plane-wave pseudopotential method is used to study the electronic and chemical structures of pyrite (FeS2) and arsenopyrite (FeAsS). The results indicate that an antibonding interaction occurs between Fe and As atoms in arsenopyrite. This interaction results in the Fe atom being repelled towards the S atom to stabilize antibonding orbitals, causing a larger S–Fe–S angle in arsenopyrite than in pyrite and a distortion in the arsenopyrite structure. In arsenopyrite, Fe–Fe distances are alternately long and short. The low spin density of the Fe d electrons supports th

The conversion of nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O) into NH3 by photocatalysis under ambient conditions has been considered an environmentally friendly strategy. However, developing effective catalysts for N2 fixation is still challenging. Herein, we report a bimetallic JH Fe, Co/TiO2 derived from NH2-MIL-125(Ti) by the fast Joule heating (FJH) method for visible–light–driven catalytic N2 fixation. It was found that the photocatalytic N2 reduction efficiency of bimetallic FC@TiO2-JH was improved, enabling an NH3 yield rate of 110.14 µmol g−1 h−1 without any sacrificial agents.

The six-membered rings in 2,4,6,8-tetraphenyl-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones, compounds 1 and 2, adopt a chair–boat conformation, while those in 2,4-diphenyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones, compounds 3–8, adopt a chair–chair conformation because of stereoelectronic effects. These stereoelectronic effects were analyzed by the 1 J C–H coupling constants, which were measured in the 13C satellites of the 1H NMR sp

Abstract:
In this study, IR studies of the coadsorption of ethanol and CO on Cu+ cations evidenced the transfer of electrons from ethanol to Cu+, which caused the lowering of the frequency of the band attributed to CO bonded to the same Cu+ cation due to the more effective π back donation of d electrons of Cu to antibonding π* orbitals of CO. The reaction of ethanol with acid sites in zeolite HFAU above 370 K produced water and ethane, polymerizing to polyethylene. Ethanol adsorbed on zeolite Cu(2)HFAU containing acid sites and Cu+exch also produced ethene, but in this case, the ethene was bonded to Cu+

Chitosans are partially acetylated polymers of glucosamine, structurally characterized by their degree of polymerization as well as their fraction and pattern of acetylation. These parameters strongly influence the physico-chemical properties and biological activities of chitosans, but structure-function relationships are only poorly understood. As an example, we here investigated the influence of acetylation on chitosan-copper complexation using density functional theory.

The photosensitized (electron transfer) bond cleavage of some β-phenylethyl ether radical cations has been investigated. In previous studies the feasibility of the bond cleavage was thought to depend on the bond dissociation energy (BDE). However, this simple hypothesis led to several incorrect predictions and therefore additional criteria, conformational effects, were added to the hypothesis. This study has now been extended and additional examples of the importance of the conformation on the carbon–carbon bond cleavage of radical cations are provided.

The CASSCF geometry optimization of the adenosylcobalamin cofactor dependent processes common models with 12 orbitals and 12 electrons in the active space has been performed.

The HOMO-LUMO coupling causes an electronic density transfer from the HOMO, which at the beginning of the optimization process is constituted from the substrate atoms orbitals, to the LUMO, which is constituted from the adenosylco(III)balamin structure atomic orbitals.

The hydrogen conversion patterns on non-magnetic solids sensitively depend upon the degree of singlet/triplet mixing in the intermediates of the catalytic reaction. Three main ‘symmetry-breaking’ interactions are brought together. In a typical channel, the electron spin–orbit (SO) couplings introduce some magnetic excitations in the non-magnetic solid ground state. The electron spin is exchanged with a molecular one by the electric molecule–solid electron repulsion, mixing the bonding and antibonding states and affecting the molecule rotation.

This is due to withdrawal of electron density from the cyclopropane 1e′′ orbitals, which are bonding for the distal bond
