Abstract: The synthesis of the new diethyl ammonium salt of diethylammonium(E)-5-(1,5-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-3-oxopent-4-en-1-yl)-1,3-diethyl-4,6-dioxo-2-thioxohexaydropyrimidin-5-ide 3 via a regioselective Michael addition of N,N-diethylthiobarbituric acid 1 to dienone 2 is described. In 3, the carboanion of the thiobarbituric moiety is stabilized by the strong intramolecular electron delocalization with the adjacent carbonyl groups and so the reaction proceeds without any cyclization. The molecular structure investigations of 3 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction as well as DFT computations. The theoretically calculated (DFT/B3LYP) geometry agrees well with the crystallographic data. The effect of fluorine replacement by chlorine atoms on the molecular structure aspects were investigated using DFT methods. Calculated electronic spectra showed a bathochromic shift of the π-π* transition when fluorine is replaced by chlorine. Charge decomposition analyses were performed to study possible interaction between the different fragments in the studied systems. Molecular docking simulations examining the inhibitory nature of the compound show an anti-diabetic activity with Pa (probability of activity) value of 0.229.

TL;DR: In this paper, the 1,8-bis (tetramethylguanidino)naphthalene (btmgn) ligand was synthesized and characterized using the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) method.
Abstract: The new [Co(btmgn)Cl 2] complex and the 1,8-bis(tetramethylguanidino)naphthalene (btmgn) ligand were synthesized and characterized. The X-ray single crystal investigation showed distorted tetrahedral geometry around the Co(II) ion. The geometry of the btmgn and [Co(btmgn)Cl 2] complex was optimized using the B3LYP/6–311G(d,p) method. The calculated geometric parameters at the optimized structure of the [Co(btmgn)Cl 2] complex showed good agreement with our reported X-ray structure. The two tetramethylguanidino groups are in a cis-type position to the naphthalene ring plane both in the free and coordinated btmgn. The large red shift of the υ C=N mode upon coordination indicates the strong ligand–metal interactions. The calculated natural charges using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis at the two coordinated Cl-atoms are not equivalent. Also the two LP(4)Cl →LP*(3)Co intramolecular charge transfer interaction energies (E (2)) are 29.00 and 39.17 kcal/mol, respectively. The two Co-Cl bonds are not equivalent where the longer Co-Cl bond has more electronegative chlorine atom than the shorter one. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) study of the btmgn ligand showed that the N4 and N7 atoms are the most reactive nucleophilic centers for the coordination with the Co 2+ ion. The [Co(btmgn)Cl 2] complex has higher polarizability (α 0), first hyperpolarizability (β 0) and lower energy gap (ΔE) than the free ligand. The TD-DFT calculations predicted the transition bands at 337.2 nm (f =0.2299, H →L) and 342.6 nm (f =0.1465, H-2/H →L) for the btmgn and [Co(btmgn)Cl 2], respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the NBO calculations were used to calculate the natural atomic charges at the different atomic sites as well as the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) interactions among the most significant natural orbitals.
Abstract: Crystals of 7,11-bis(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2,4-dimethyl-2,4-diazaspiro[5.5]undecane -1,3,5,9-tetraone were grown in polar solvents and subjected to single crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecular crystal is Triclinic, P-1, a= 8.3734 (19) A, b= 12.382 (3) A, c= 12.871 (3) A, α= 66.639 (7) ∘, β= 85.148 (7) ∘, γ= 70.690 (6) ∘, V= 1154.5 (5)A 3, Z= 2, D calc= 1.519 g cm −3. The optimized molecular structure of the studied compound using B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) method showed good agreement with the X-ray structure. The electronic and spectroscopic properties of the title compound were predicted. The NBO calculations were used to calculate the natural atomic charges at the different atomic sites as well as the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) interactions among the most significant natural orbitals. The high LP(N) → BD*(2)C-O ICT interaction energies indicate strong electron delocalization from the lone pair of the N-atoms of the pyrimidinetrione ring to the adjacent carbonyl groups. In contrast, the small LP(O) →BD*(1)C-H stabilization energies (E (2)) indicated weak C-H—O interactions. Experimentally, the studied compound showed the most intense electronic transition band at 232 nm which is calculated using TD-DFT method as a shoulder at 231.3 nm (f =0.0832) and it belongs to H-3/H-1 →L+1 and H-2 →L+2 excitations. The GIAO calculated 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts showed good correlations with the experimental data.
