Journal ArticleDOI

Carboxyl-functionalized task-specific ionic liquids for solubilizing metal oxides.

TL;DR: The crystal structures of four ionic liquids and five metal complexes have been determined and it was found that it can be attributed to the temperature-dependent hydration and hydrogen-bond formation of the ionic liquid components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protonation and Deprotonation Enthalpies of Guanine and Adenine and Implications for the Structure and Energy of Their Complexes with Water: Comparison with Uracil, Thymine, and Cytosine

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimized geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, and energies of monohydrated guanine and adenine were computed using density functional theory (B3LYP) combined with the 6-31+G(d,p) basis set.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polynitrogen compounds 1. Structure and stability of N4 and N5 systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the results concerning the molecular and electronic structure and thermodynamic stability of polynitrogen compounds Nn, with n ranging from 4 to 60, as revealed by quantum chemical calculations published in the past 30 years, and where available, by experimental observations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular mechanism for H2 release from BH3NH3, including the catalytic role of the Lewis acid BH3.

TL;DR: Electronic structure calculations using various methods, up to the coupled-cluster CCSD(T) level, in conjunction with the aug-cc-pVnZ basis sets with n = D, T, and Q, extrapolated to the complete basis set limit, show that the borane molecule can act as an efficient bifunctional acid-base catalyst in the H2 elimination reactions of XHnYHn systems.
