Method and Basis Set Analysis of Oxorhenium(V) Complexes for Theoretical Calculations.

ABSTRACT: A variety of method and basis set combinations has been evaluated for monooxorhenium(V) complexes with N, O, P, S, Cl, and Se donor atoms. The geometries and energies obtained are compared to both high-level computations and literature structures. These calculations show that the PBE0 method outperforms the B3LYP method with respect to both structure and energetics. The combination of 6-31G** basis set on the nonmetal atoms and LANL2TZ effective core potential on the rhenium center gives reliable equilibrium structures with minimal computational resources for both model and literature compounds. Single-point energy calculations at the PBE0/LANL2TZ,6-311+G* level of theory are recommended for energetics.

Absorption Intensities of Organic Molecules from Electronic Structure Calculations versus Experiments: the Effect of Solvation, Method, Basis Set, and Transition Moment Gauge.

Project description:Recently, we derived experimental oscillator strengths (OSs) from well-defined UV-visible absorption spectral peaks of 100 molecules in solution. Here, we focus on a subset of transitions with the highest reliability to further benchmark the OSs from several wave function methods and density functionals. We consider multiple basis sets, transition moment gauges (length, velocity, and mixed), and solvent corrections. Most transitions in the comparison set come from conjugated molecules and have π → π* character. We use an automated algorithm to assign computed transitions to experimental bands. OSs computed using the Tamm-Dancoff approximation (TDA), CIS, or EOM-CCSD exhibited a strong gauge dependence, which is diminished in linear response theories (TD-DFT, TD-HF, and to a smaller degree LR-CCSD). OSs calculated from TD-DFT with PCM solvent models are systematically larger than apparent OSs derived from experimental spectra. For example, fcomp from hybrid functionals and PCM have mean absolute errors that are ∼10% of n·fexp, where n is a solvent refractive index factor that arises from the energy flux of the radiation field in a dielectric (solvent). Theoretical cavity field corrections considering spherical cavities do not improve the agreement between computed and experimental data. Corrections that account for the molecular shape and the direction of transition dipole moments, or that explicitly account for the effect of solvent molecules on the local field, should be more appropriate.

Theoretical basis for genetic linkage analysis in autotetraploid species.

Project description:Linkage analysis in autotetraploid species has been an historical challenge in quantitative genetics theory and is a stumbling block that urgently needs to be removed in the rapidly emerging genome research on this species, such as cultivated potato. This article presents theory of a full model of tetrasomic linkage and develops a statistical framework for the linkage analysis. The model considers both double reduction and recombination, the most essential features of tetrasomic inheritance with linked loci, whereas the statistical method takes appropriate account of the major complexities in analyzing both dominant and codominant molecular marker data during map reconstruction in tetraploid species. These complexities include the problems arising from multiple dosage of allelic inheritance, the null allele, allelic segregation distortion, mixed bivalent and quadrivalent pairing in meiosis, and incomplete information of marker phenotype data. The theoretical analysis established the relationship between the coefficients of double reduction at linked loci, which is essential in the present tetrasomic linkage analysis and in assessing the impact of double reduction on the evolution of tetraploid populations. The statistical method, based on the combination of theoretical analysis and a computer-based algorithm, provided analytical tools for predicting the maximum-likelihood estimates of the model parameters. A simulation study showed the feasibility of a practical implementation of the method, detailed the procedure of the analysis, validated the power and reliability in the parameter estimation, and compared the present method with those proposed in the current literature.

Nitron-derivative-based palladium carbene complexes: structural characterization, theoretical calculations, and catalytic applications in the Mizoroki-Heck coupling reaction.

Project description:New palladium(0) and palladium(ii) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands derived from nitron and its derivatives were synthesized. The structures of most of these complexes were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Among the new complexes, the palladium complex with a monodentate NHC ligand derived from nitron demonstrated the highest efficacy as a catalyst precursor in the Mizoroki-Heck coupling reaction of aryl chlorides with alkenes. Theoretical calculations provide valuable insights into the electronic parameters of both the ligands and the palladium complexes, highlighting the significance of a robust Pd-C bond and the π-accepting property of the NHC ligand in achieving enhanced catalytic activity. Notably, catalyst activation occurred much more rapidly with the preformed palladium(0) complex compared to its palladium(ii) counterpart.

Theoretical Analysis of Polynuclear Zinc Complexes Isolobally Related to Hydrocarbons.

Project description:Based on the isolobal analogy of ZnCp (Cp = η5-C5H5) and ZnR (R = alkyl or aryl group) fragments with hydrogen atom and fragment [Zn(CO)2] with a CH2 carbene, the following complexes [(ZnCp)2{µ-Zn(CO)2}], 1, [(ZnPh)2{µ-Zn(CO)2}], 2, [(ZnPh){µ-Zn(CO)2}(ZnCp)], 3, [(ZnCp)2{µ-Zn2(CO)4}], 4, [(ZnPh)2{µ-Zn2(CO)4}], 5, [(ZnPh){µ-Zn(CO)2}2(ZnCp)], 6, [Zn3(CO)6], 7 and [Zn5(CO)10], 8, were built. These polynuclear zinc compounds are isolobally related to simple hydrocarbons (methane, ethane, cyclopropane and cyclopentane). They have been studied by density functional theory (DFT) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) to compare the nature and topology of the Zn-Zn bond with previous studies. There are bond critical points (BCPs) between each pair of adjacent Zn centers in complexes 1-8 with Zn-Zn distances within the range 2.37-2.50 Å. The nature of the Zn-Zn bond in these complexes can be described as polar rather than pure covalent bonds. Although in a subtle way, the presence of different ligands and zinc oxidation states introduces asymmetry and polarity in the Zn-Zn bond. In addition, the Zn-Zn bond is delocalized in nature in complex 7 whereas it can be described as a localized bond for the remaining zinc complexes here studied.

Synthesis, Crystal Structure, Theoretical Calculations, Antibacterial Activity, Electrochemical Behavior, and Molecular Docking of Ni(II) and Cu(II) Complexes with Pyridoxal-Semicarbazone.

Project description:New Ni (II) and Cu (II) complexes with pyridoxal-semicarbazone were synthesized and their structures were solved by X-ray crystallography. This analysis showed the bis-ligand octahedral structure of [Ni(PLSC-H)2]·H2O and the dimer octahedral structure of [Cu(PLSC)(SO4)(H2O)]2·2H2O. Hirshfeld surface analysis was employed to determine the most important intermolecular interactions in the crystallographic structures. The structures of both complexes were further examined using density functional theory and natural bond orbital analysis. The photocatalytic decomposition of methylene blue in the presence of both compounds was investigated. Both compounds were active toward E. coli and S. aureus, with a minimum inhibition concentration similar to that of chloramphenicol. The obtained complexes led to the formation of free radical species, as was demonstrated in an experiment with dichlorofluorescein-diacetate. It is postulated that this is the mechanistic pathway of the antibacterial and photocatalytic activities. Cyclic voltammograms of the compounds showed the peaks of the reduction of metal ions. A molecular docking study showed that the Ni(II) complex exhibited promising activity towards Janus kinase (JAK), as a potential therapy for inflammatory diseases, cancers, and immunologic disorders.

FDR-FET: an optimizing gene set enrichment analysis method.

Project description:Gene set enrichment analysis for analyzing large profiling and screening experiments can reveal unifying biological schemes based on previously accumulated knowledge represented as "gene sets". Most of the existing implementations use a fixed fold-change or P value cutoff to generate regulated gene lists. However, the threshold selection in most cases is arbitrary, and has a significant effect on the test outcome and interpretation of the experiment. We developed a new gene set enrichment analysis method, ie, FDR-FET, which dynamically optimizes the threshold choice and improves the sensitivity and selectivity of gene set enrichment analysis. The procedure translates experimental results into a series of regulated gene lists at multiple false discovery rate (FDR) cutoffs, and computes the P value of the overrepresentation of a gene set using a Fisher's exact test (FET) in each of these gene lists. The lowest P value is retained to represent the significance of the gene set. We also implemented improved methods to define a more relevant global reference set for the FET. We demonstrate the validity of the method using a published microarray study of three protease inhibitors of the human immunodeficiency virus and compare the results with those from other popular gene set enrichment analysis algorithms. Our results show that combining FDR with multiple cutoffs allows us to control the error while retaining genes that increase information content. We conclude that FDR-FET can selectively identify significant affected biological processes. Our method can be used for any user-generated gene list in the area of transcriptome, proteome, and other biological and scientific applications.

Phonons in Short-Period GaN/AlN Superlattices: Group-Theoretical Analysis, Ab initio Calculations, and Raman Spectra.

Project description:We report the results of experimental and theoretical studies of phonon modes in GaN/AlN superlattices (SLs) with a period of several atomic layers, grown by submonolayer digital plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy, which have a great potential for use in quantum and stress engineering. Using detailed group-theoretical analysis, the genesis of the SL vibrational modes from the modes of bulk AlN and GaN crystals is established. Ab initio calculations in the framework of the density functional theory, aimed at studying the phonon states, are performed for SLs with both equal and unequal layer thicknesses. The frequencies of the vibrational modes are calculated, and atomic displacement patterns are obtained. Raman spectra are calculated and compared with the experimental ones. The results of the ab initio calculations are in good agreement with the experimental Raman spectra and the results of the group-theoretical analysis. As a result of comprehensive studies, the correlations between the parameters of acoustic and optical phonons and the structure of SLs are obtained. This opens up new possibilities for the analysis of the structural characteristics of short-period GaN/AlN SLs using Raman spectroscopy. The results obtained can be used to optimize the growth technologies aimed to form structurally perfect short-period GaN/AlN SLs.

MP2-F12 Basis Set Convergence near the Complete Basis Set Limit: Are <i>h</i> Functions Sufficient?

Project description:We have investigated the title question for the W4-08 thermochemical benchmark using l-saturated truncations of a large reference (REF) basis set, as well as for standard F12-optimized basis sets. With the REF basis set, the root-mean-square (RMS) contribution of i functions to the MP2-F12 total atomization energies (TAEs) is about 0.01 kcal/mol, the largest individual contributions being 0.04 kcal/mol for P2 and P4. However, even for these cases, basis set extrapolation from {g,h} basis sets adequately addresses the problem. Using basis sets insufficiently saturated in the spdfgh angular momenta may lead to exaggerated i function contributions. For extrapolation from spdfg and spdfgh basis sets, basis set convergence appears to be quite close to the theoretical asymptotic ∝ L-7 behavior. We hence conclude that h functions are sufficient even for highly demanding F12 applications. With one-parameter extrapolation, spdf and spdfg basis sets are adequate, aug-cc-pV{T,Q}Z-F12 yielding a RMSD = 0.03 kcal/mol. A limited exploration of CCSD(F12*) and CCSD-F12b suggests our conclusions are applicable to higher-level F12 methods as well.

Theoretical Study of Actinide Complexes with Macropa.

Project description:The complex formation of actinium (Ac3+) and californium (Cf3+) ions with macropa (a promising ligand for medical applications, e.g., in targeted α therapy) has been studied by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. This work is focused on the structural and bonding properties, the latter on the basis of charge transfer data and topological properties of the electron density distribution. The effect of water solvent on the energetics has been investigated using the SMD model. A comparative analysis with the related properties of two representative lanthanide (La, Lu) complexes has been performed.
