Barrales-Martínez C, Durán R, Jaque P. Transition from synchronous to asynchronous mechanisms in 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions: a polarizability perspective. J Mol Model 2024; 30:355. [PMID: 39347808 DOI: 10.1007/s00894-024-06161-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2024] [Accepted: 09/23/2024] [Indexed: 10/01/2024]
Abstract
CONTEXT This study investigates the energetic and polarizability characteristics of three 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions between diazene oxide and substituted ethylenes, focusing on the transition from synchronous to asynchronous mechanisms. Synchronicity analysis, using the reaction force constant, indicates that the bond evolution process becomes increasingly decoupled as the number of cyano groups increases. Polarizability analysis reveals that isotropic polarizability reaches its maximum near the transition state in all cases, while anisotropy of polarizability shifts from the transition state toward the product direction as asynchronicity increases. The larger the shift, the more asynchronous the mechanism, as reflected by the weight of the transition region. A detailed examination of the parallel and perpendicular polarizability components to the newly formed sigma bonds shows that the evolution of the parallel component is closely aligned with the energetic changes along the reaction coordinate, particularly in the synchronous reaction. We have also identified a relationship between the displacement in the maximum state of the parallel component from the transition state and the synchronicity of the mechanism. The larger the displacement, the more asynchronous the mechanism. These findings suggest that asynchronous 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition mechanisms are characterized by a decoupling of isotropic and anisotropic polarizabilities and a shift in the maximum polarizability state of the parallel component toward the product direction. METHODS Density functional theory calculations were performed at the B3LYP/6-311 + + G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory. The polarizability was calculated at each point of the reaction path, obtained using the intrinsic reaction coordinate method, as implemented in Gaussian 16.

Abstract
We investigate the course of an elementary chemical reaction from the perspective of information theory in 3D space through the hypersurface of several information-theoretic (IT) functionals such as disequilibrium (D), Shannon entropy (S), Fisher information (I), and the complexity measures of Fisher-Shannon (FS) and López-Mancini-Calbet (LMC). The probe for the study is the hydrogenic identity abstraction reaction. In order to perform the analysis, the reactivity pattern of the reaction is examined by use of the aforementioned functionals of the single-particle density, which is analyzed in position (r) and momentum (p) spaces. The 3D analyses revealed interesting reactivity patterns in the neighborhood of the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) path, which allow to interpret the reaction mechanism for this reaction in a novel manner. In addition, the chemically interesting regions that have been characterized through the information functionals and their complexity measures are depicted and analyzed in the framework of the three-dimensional structure of the information-theoretical data of a chemical reaction, that is, the reactant/product (R/P) complexes, the transition state (TS), and the ones that are only revealed through IT measures such as the bond-cleavage energy region (BCER), the bond-breaking/forming (B-B/F) region, and the spin-coupling (SC) process. Furthermore, focus has been placed on the diagonal part of the hypersurface of the IT functionals, aside from the IRC path itself, with the purpose of analyzing the dissociation process of the triatomic transition-state complex that has revealed other interesting features of the bond-breaking (B-B) process. In other respects, it is shown throughout the combined analyses of the 3D structure of the IT functionals in conjugated spaces that the chemically significant regions occurring at the onset of the TS are completely characterized by information-theoretic aspects of localizability (S), uniformity (D), and disorder. Further, novel regions of low complexity seem to indicate new boundaries for chemically stable complex molecules. Finally, the study reveals that the chemical reaction occurs at low-complexity regions, where the concurrent phenomena take place: bond-breaking/forming (B-B/F), bond-cleavage energy reservoirs (BCER), spin-coupling (SC), and transition state (TS).

Abstract
Different machine learning (ML) models are proposed in the present work to predict density functional theory-quality barrier heights (BHs) from semiempirical quantum mechanical (SQM) calculations. The ML models include a multitask deep neural network, gradient-boosted trees by means of the XGBoost interface, and Gaussian process regression. The obtained mean absolute errors are similar to those of previous models considering the same number of data points. The ML corrections proposed in this paper could be useful for rapid screening of the large reaction networks that appear in combustion chemistry or in astrochemistry. Finally, our results show that 70% of the features with the highest impact on model output are bespoke predictors. This custom-made set of predictors could be employed by future Δ-ML models to improve the quantitative prediction of other reaction properties.

Abstract
Computational scheme to obtain bond softening index λ, defined within the conceptual DFT, has been obtained with the use of the reaction fragility (RF) concept. Numerical results were obtained with the RF spectra for the proton transfer reaction in formamide molecule (H2NCHO) and the water assisted proton migration in H2NCHO·H2O complex. Double proton transfer reaction in the formamide dimer, (H2NCHO)2, and its analogues, (H2NCHS)2 and (H2NCHO)·(H2NCHS), have also been studied. The atomic and bond RF spectra clearly describe the density reorganization in the backbone of each molecule, resulting from proton displacement in the systems. The obtained softening indices have been calculated for hydrogen atoms in the reactant state (RS) and product state (PS) configuration. These indices provide fine characteristics for the local sensitivity of the reacting system to a disturbance of the position of a chosen atom.

Density Functional Theory Applied to Excited State Intramolecular Proton Transfer in Imidazole-, Oxazole-, and Thiazole-Based Systems. Molecules 2018; 23:molecules23051231.

Abstract
Excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) is a photoinduced process strongly associated to hydrogen bonding within a molecular framework. In this manuscript, we computed potential energy data using Time Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) for triphenyl-substituted heterocycles, which evidenced an energetically favorable proton transfer on the excited state (i.e., ESIPT) but not on the ground state. Moreover, we describe how changes on heterocyclic functionalities, based on imidazole, oxazole, and thiazole systems, affect the ESIPT process that converts an enolic species to a ketonic one through photon-induced proton transfer. Structural and photophysical data were obtained theoretically by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations and contrasted for the three heterocyclics. Different functionals were used, but B3LYP was the one that adequately predicted absorption data. It was observed that the intramolecular hydrogen bond is strengthened in the excited state, supporting the occurrence of ESIPT. Finally, it was observed that, with the formation of the excited state, there is a decrease in electronic density at the oxygen atom that acts as proton donor, while there is a substantial increase in the corresponding density at the nitrogen atom that serves as proton acceptor, thus, indicating that proton transfer is indeed favored after photon absorption.

Abstract
A five-coordinated Fe(III) complex with the distorted trigonal bipyramidal configuration was synthesized by reactions of FeCl3⋅6H2O and 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)oxazoline (Hphox) as a bidentate ON donor oxazoline ligand. Complex [Fe(phox)2Cl] was fully characterized, including by single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. DFT calculations were accompanied with experimental results in order to obtain a deeper insight into the electronic structure and vibrational normal modes of complex. Oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides in one-step was conducted by this complex as catalyst using urea hydrogen peroxide (UHP) in mixture of CH2Cl2/CH3OH (1:1) under air at room temperature. The results show that using this system in oxidation of sulfides, sulfoxides are obtained as the main products, together with variable amounts of sulfones (≤13%), depending on the nature of the substrate.
