To attempt theoretical predictions of the regioselectivity pattern in molecules with multiple reactive sites, the energies of formation of all possible isomers are usually considered. This means that the computing becomes highly demanding if high theoretical levels are used. The study objective was to predict the regioselectivity in the reaction of hydrogen addition onto azahydro[60]fullerene C 59H n+1 N ( n = 0-4) systems using a new reactivity indicator termed general-purpose reactivity indicator, Xi Delta N

An atomistic understanding of dry-etching processes with reactive molecules is crucial for achieving geometric integrity in highly scaled semiconductor devices. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are instrumental, but the lack of reliable force fields hinders the widespread use of MD in etching simulations. In this work, we develop an accurate neural network potential (NNP) for simulating the etching process of amorphous SiN with HF molecules.

Introduction: Forensic psychiatric patients receive treatment to address their violent and aggressive behavior with the aim of facilitating their safe reintegration into society. On average, these treatments are effective, but the magnitude of effect sizes tends to be small, even when considering more recent advancements in digital mental health innovations. Recent research indicates that wearable technology has positive effects on the physical and mental health of the general population, and may thus also be of use in forensic psychiatry, both for patients and staff members.

RTCONF55-16K is a new, reactive conformational data set based on cost-efficient methods to assess different conformational analysis protocols. Our reference calculations underpinned the accuracy of the CENSO (Grimme et al. , 2021, 125, 4039) procedure and resulted in alternative recipes with different cost-accuracy compromises.

ReaxFF reactive force field bridges the gap between nonreactive molecular simulations and quantum mechanical calculations and has been widely applied during the past two decades. However, its application to earth materials, especially those under high T-P conditions relevant to Earth's interior, is still limited due to the lack of available parameters. Here, we present the development and validation of a ReaxFF force field containing several of the most common elements in Earth's crust, i.

The reactivity of 22 unsaturated molecules undergoing attack by a methyl radical (⋅CH) have been elucidated using the condensed radical general-purpose reactivity indicator (condensed radical GPRI) appropriate for relatively nucleophilic or electrophilic molecules. Using the appropriate radical GPRI equation for electrophilic attack or nucleophilic radical attack, seven different population schemes were used to assign the most reactive atoms in each of the 22 molecules. The results show that the condensed radical GPRI is sensitive to the population scheme chosen, but less sensitive than the radical Fukui function.
