We compare the effectiveness of six exchange/correlation functional combinations (Becke/Lee, Yang and Parr; Becke-3/Lee, Yang and Parr; Becke/Perdew-Wang 91; Becke-3/Perdew-Wang 91; Becke/Perdew 86; Becke-3/Perdew 86) for computing C-N, O-O and N-NO2 dissociation energies and dipole moments of five compounds. The studied compounds are hexabydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), dimethylnitramine, cyanogen, nitromethane and ozone. The Becke-3/Perdew 86 in conjunction with 6-31G** is found to give the best results, although for the dipole moments of RDX, there is a slightly difference that B3P86/6-31G** is less reliable than B3P86/6-31+G**.

The alignment of permanent dipole moments and the resulting spontaneous orientation polarization (SOP) are commonly observed in evaporated neat films of polar organic molecules and lead to a so-called giant surface potential. In the case of mixed films, often enhanced molecular orientation is observed, i.e.

Thermodynamic Stability in Transition Metal-Hydrogen Dications: Potential Energy Curves, Spectroscopic Parameters, and Bonding for VH.

J Comput Chem

January 2025

Universidade de São Paulo, Instituto de Química, Departamento de Química Fundamental, São Paulo, Brazil.

Seventeen electronic states of the dication VH were characterized by the SA-CASSCF/icMRCI methodology using very extended basis sets; 11 were described for the first time. Potential energy curves were constructed and the associated spectroscopic parameters evaluated. Triplet and quintet states correlating with the V + H channel are thermodynamic stable.

This study investigates the phenolic compounds (PC), volatile compounds (VC), and fatty acids (FA) of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) derived from the Turkish olive variety "Sarı Ulak", along with ADMET, DFT, molecular docking, and gene network analyses of significant molecules identified within the EVOO. Chromatographic methods (GC-FID, HPLC) were employed to characterize FA, PC, and VC profiles, while quality parameters, antioxidant activities (TAC, ABTS, DPPH) were assessed via spectrophotometry. The analysis revealed a complex composition of 40 volatile compounds, with estragole, 7-hydroxyheptene-1, and 3-methoxycinnamaldehyde as the primary components.

D3-ImgNet: A Framework for Molecular Properties Prediction Based on Data-Driven Electron Density Images.

J Phys Chem A

January 2025

Liaoning Key Laboratory of Manufacturing System and Logistics Optimization, Shenyang 110819, China.

Artificial intelligence technology has introduced a new research paradigm into the fields of quantum chemistry and materials science, leading to numerous studies that utilize machine learning methods to predict molecular properties. We contend that an exemplary deep learning model should not only achieve high-precision predictions of molecular properties but also incorporate guidance from physical mechanisms. Here, we propose a framework for predicting molecular properties based on data-driven electron density images, referred to as D3-ImgNet.
