This work employs double-hybrid density functionals to re-examine the CO-NO bond dissociation mechanism of nitrite isomer of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitro-ethylene (DADNE) into (NH)C=C(NO)O and nitric monoxide (NO). The calculated results confirm that an activated barrier is present in the CO-NO bond dissociation process of (NH)C=C(NO)(ONO). Furthermore, it is proposed that a radical-radical adduct is involved in the exit dissociation path with subsequent dissociation to separate (NH)C=C(NO)O and NO radicals. The activation and reaction enthalpies at 298.15 K for the nitrite isomer dissociation are predicted to be 43.6 and 5.4 kJ mol at the B2PLYP/6-31G(d,p) level, respectively. Employing the B2PLYP/6-31G(d,p) reaction energetics, gradient, Hessian, and geometries, the kinetic model for the CO-NO bond dissociation of (NH)C=C(NO)(ONO) is obtained by a fitting to the modified Arrhenius form 1.05 × 10(/300) exp[-27.80( + 205.32)/( + 205.32)] in units of per second over the temperature range 200-3000 K based on the canonical variational transition-state theory with multidimensional small-curvature tunneling.

A novel coordination compound, [Co()(HO)], was synthesized from aqueous solutions of Co(NO) and the ligand 2-[(5-methyl-1,3,4-thia-diazol-2-yl)sulfan-yl]acetic acid (H, CHNOS). In the monoclinic crystals (space group 2/), the cobalt(II) ion is located about a centre of symmetry and is octa-hedrally coordinated by two anions in a monodentate fashion through carboxyl O atoms and by four water mol-ecules. A relatively strong hydrogen bond between one of the water mol-ecules and the non-coordinating carboxyl-ate O atom consolidates the conformation.

Valence bond theory (VB) was used to determine the extent and driving forces for covalent vs. dative bonding in 10-valence-electron diatomic molecules N, CO, NO, CN, P, SiS, PS, and SiP. VBSCF calculations were performed at the CCSD(T)/cc-pVDZ optimized geometries.

The importance of catalysts in industrial products is a driving factor in the search of efficient and cost-effective catalysts, creating considerable interest in the past decade in single-atom catalysis. One of the first requirements of a good catalyst is that it should bind to the molecules with energies intermediate between physisorption and chemisorption while simultaneously activating them. Herein, it is shown that superatoms, which are atomic clusters with fixed size and composition, can meet this challenge even better than the atoms whose chemistry they mimic.

In this article, density functional theory computations at the PBE0-D3/def2-TZVP level are reported to unveil the type of bonding between β-D-glucopyranose-silver ion (1:1) complex ([Ag(CHO)]) and seven gas molecules, namely, H, CH, CH, CO, N, NO and O. Moreover, the relative preference of trapping among these molecules within the sight of Ag metal ion in the complex is explored. The nature of interaction of these small molecules with the [Ag(CHO)] ion is studied.

Electron attachment and corresponding dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to cobalt tricarbonyl nitrosyl (Co(CO)NO) clusters have been studied by co-expansion with Ar gas into a high vacuum. A monochromatic electron beam was utilized to generate negative ions and the resulting reaction products were identified using mass spectrometry. The ion fragments corresponding to Co(CO)NO monomers closely resemble results from earlier gas phase experiments and studies conducted on Co(CO)NO in He nanodroplets.
