Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with intrinsic luminescent properties, modular structure, and tunable electronic properties, provide unique opportunities for designing target-specific molecular sensors by systematically choosing their constituent building blocks. We report a simple one-step MOF-based sensing platform for phosphate (P) detection that combines the luminescent properties of 2-aminoterephthalic acid (ATA) with the affinity of rationally selected nodes in UiO-66-NH2 to bind with P. This MOF possesses an electron-donating amine group that controls the light-harvesting characteristics of the linkers. Substituting Zr6 node with Ce6 or Hf6 results in a series of isostructural MOFs with distinct optical properties that are nonexistent in the unsubstituted MOF. We have utilized these MOFs to quantitatively measure P, using its ability to bind strongly to metal nodes inhibiting the LMCT process and altering the linker's photon emission. Using this system, detection limits of 4.5, 7.2 and 10.5 μM were obtained for the UiO-66-NH2(Ce), UiO-66-NH2, and UiO-66-NH2(Hf) respectively, adopting a straightforward single step procedure. These results demonstrate that the selection of metal nodes in a series of isostructural MOFs can be used to modulate their electronic properties and create sensing probes possessing the desired characteristics needed for the detection of environmental contaminants.

Abstract
As part of an on-going programme of development of an aniline synthesis catalyst suitable for operation at elevated temperatures, the geometry of the adsorption complex for nitrobenzene on a 5 wt% Pd/Al2O3 catalyst is investigated by infrared (IR) spectroscopy. Via an appreciation of the reduced site symmetry resulting from adsorption, application of the metal surface selection rule, and observation of in-plane modes only, the adsorption complex (Pd-nitrobenzene) at 28 °C is assigned as occurring vertically or tilted with respect to the metal surface, adopting Csσv(yz) symmetry. Moreover, adsorption occurs via a single Pd-O bond. Single molecule DFT calculations and simulated IR spectra assist vibrational assignments but indicate a parallel adsorption geometry to be energetically favourable. The contradiction between calculated and observed structures is attributed to the DFT calculations corresponding to an isolated molecule adsorption complex, while IR spectra relate to multi molecule adsorption that is encountered during sustained catalytic turnover. Residual hydrogen from the catalyst reduction stage leads to aniline formation on the Pd surface at low nitrobenzene coverages but, on increasing nitrobenzene exposure, the aniline is forced on to the alumina support. A reaction scheme is proposed whereby the nitrobenzene adsorption geometry is inherently linked to the high aniline selectivity observed for Pd/Al2O3 catalysts.

Abstract
We employ state-of-the-art quantum chemistry methods to study the structure-to-property relationship in polyanilines (PANIs) of different lengths and oxidation states. Specifically, we focus on leucoemeraldine, emeraldine, and pernigraniline in their tetramer and octamer forms. We scrutinize their structural properties, HOMO and LUMO energies, HOMO-LUMO gaps, and vibrational and electronic spectroscopy using various Density Functional Approximations (DFAs). Furthermore, the accuracy of DFAs is assessed by comparing them to experimental and wavefunction-based reference data. We perform large-scale orbital-optimized pair-Coupled Cluster Doubles (oo-pCCD) calculations for ground and electronically excited states and conventional Configuration Interaction Singles (CIS) calculations for electronically excited states in all investigated systems. The EOM-pCCD+S approach with pCCD-optimized orbitals allows us to unambiguously identify charge transfer and local transitions across the investigated PANI systems-an analysis not possible within a delocalized canonical molecular orbital basis obtained, for instance, by DFAs. We show that the low-lying part of the emeraldine and pernigraniline spectrum is dominated by charge transfer excitations and that polymer elongation changes the character of the leading transitions. Furthermore, we augment our study with a quantum informational analysis of orbital correlations in various forms of PANIs.

Abstract
The possibility of finding the fragmentation routes by theoretical methods led us to compare the molecular ions between neutral molecules of benzene, aniline, and o-, m-, and p-nitroaniline, using the density functional theory (DFT), under an aug-cc-pVDZ base set and a B3LYP exchange-correlation functional. After determining the structure and electronic energy of neutral and doubly ionized species, we used a new protocol based on analyzing Wiberg's binding indexes and the quantum theory of atoms in Bader molecules (QTAIM). The charge transfer and electronic distribution in aromatic monomers indicate the possibility of fragment formation in at least two pairs of carbon-carbon (CC) atoms. They show the possible loss of the -CNH2 and -NO2 groups in the aniline and nitroaniline molecules doubly ionized.

Abstract
Electron bombardment of aniline (PhNH2) in an Ar matrix mainly generated the aniline cation (PhNH2+), anilino (PhNH) and phenyl (Ph) radicals, and phenylnitrene (PhN). Further irradiation of the electron-bombarded matrix sample at 365 nm depleted PhNH2+ and PhN, and resulted in the formation of PhNH2, PhNH, and Ph. In separate experiments, irradiation of the PhNH2/Ar matrix samples at 265 or 160 nm mainly generated PhNH and Ph radicals, but without the formation of PhNH2+ and PhN. According to the observed photochemical behaviors, quantum-chemically predicted harmonic vibrational wavenumbers of each species, and the information reported in previous photodissociation studies, we unambiguously characterized the IR features of the aromatic species. The information of the vibrational fundamentals of PhNH is new and the formation mechanism is discussed.

Abstract
Hydrogen bonds (HBs) directly engaging fluorine has been extensively studied, but the indirect effect of fluorine on adjacent donors and acceptors is poorly understood and still difficult to predict. The indirect and direct effect of the fluorination of aniline on HB patterns observed in monofluoroanilines was studied via experimental (vibrational spectroscopy and crystal structure analysis) and theoretical (ab initio molecular dynamics and electrostatic surface potential) methods. It was found that a fluorine substituent decreases the strength and frequency of N-H⋯N HBs and, at the same time, increases the acidity of CH protons, enhancing the competitiveness of weaker interactions. Additionally, the position of fluorine in the aromatic ring strongly affects the C-F bond length, and a direct intramolecular N-H⋯F HB causes an increase in the N-H bond stability. We also provide a methodology to identify and separate individual HBs concerning the type of donor or acceptor from the ab initio molecular dynamics trajectories.

Abstract
Extensive investigation on the molecular and electronic structure of 2-amino-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole in the ground state and in the first excited state has been performed. The energy barrier corresponding to the conversion between imino and amino tautomers has been calculated, which indicates the existence of amino tautomer in solid state for the title compound. The FT-Raman and FT-IR spectra were recorded and compared with theoretical vibrational wavenumbers, and a good coherence has been observed. The MESP map, dipole moment, polarizability, and hyperpolarizability have been calculated to comprehend the properties of the title molecule. High polarizability value estimation of the title compound may enhance its bioactivity. Natural bonding orbital analysis has been done on monomer and dimer to investigate the charge delocalization and strength of hydrogen bonding, respectively. Strong hydrogen bonding interaction energies of 17.09/17.49 kcal mol-1 have been calculated at the B3LYP/M06-2X functional. The UV-vis spectrum was recorded and related to the theoretical spectrum. The title compound was biologically examined for anticancer activity by studying the cytotoxic performance against two human cancer cell lines (A549 and HeLa) along with the molecular docking simulation. Both molecular docking and cytotoxic performance against cancer cell lines show positive outcomes, and the title compound appears to be a promising anticancer agent.

Abstract
Raman spectral vibrational frequencies are used to probe the local chemical environment surrounding molecules in solution and adsorbed to gold nanostars. Herein, the impacts of functional group protonation on monosubstituted benzene derivatives with amine, carboxylic acid, or hydroxide are evaluated. Changes in binding affinity and orientation are apparent by evaluating systematic variations in vibrational frequencies. Notably, the electron donating abilities of these functional groups influence the vibrational frequency of the ring breathing mode, thus leading to improved spectral interpretation. Furthermore, gold nanostars are used to investigate the impact of molecular protonation on the adsorption of benzoic acid/benzoate to gold. The changes in molecular protonation are measured using zeta potential and the surface-sensitive technique, surface-enhanced Raman scattering. These methods reveal that pH variations induce carboxylate protonation and electron redistribution that weaken molecular affinity, thereby causing the molecule to adopt a perpendicular to parallel orientation with respect to the nanostar surface. Functional group identity influences the ring breathing mode frequency as a function of changes in electron donation from the functional group to the ring in solution as well as molecular affinity to and orientation on gold. This exploitation of vibrational frequencies facilitates the elucidation of molecule behavior in complex systems.

Abstract
We report density functional theory computations and photoionization mass spectrometry measurements of aniline and its positively charged ions. The geometrical structures and properties of the neutral and singly, doubly, and triply positively charged aniline are computed using density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximation. At each charge, there are multiple isomers closely spaced in total energy. Whereas the lowest energy states of both neutral and cation have the same topology C6H5-NH2, the dication and trication have the C5NH5-CH2 topology with the nitrogen atom in the meta- and para-positions, respectively. We compute the dissociation pathways of all four charge states to NH or NH+ and NH2 or NH2+, depending on the initial charge of the aniline precursor. Dissociation leading to the formation of NH (from the neutral and cation) and NH+ (from the dication and trication) proceeds through multiple transition states. On the contrary, the dissociation of NH2 (from the neutral and cation) and NH2+ (from the dication and trication) is found to proceed without an activation energy barrier. The trication was found to be stable toward abstraction on NH+ and NH2+ by 0.96 and 0.18 eV, respectively, whereas the proton affinity of the trication is substantially higher, 1.98 eV. The mass spectra of aniline were recorded with 1300 nm, 20 fs pulses over the peak intensity range of 1 × 1013 to 3 × 1014 W cm-2. The analysis of the mass spectra suggests high stability of both dication and trication to fragmentation. The formation of the fragment NH+ and NH2+ ions is found to proceed via Coulomb explosion.

Abstract
There are several types of aniline oligomers that can be formed in the early stages of aniline oxidation: linear oligomers with repeating units joined in para positions, and various branched and polycyclic oligomers, being the two most important groups. The fraction of these different oligomeric groups depends upon the reaction conditions of aniline oxidation. The aim of this study was to analyze the first products of the chemical and electrochemical oxidation of aniline at the (starting) pH 1 and 7, in order to specify the conditions of the formation of phenazine-like oligomers, and to test the theory that they have an important role in polyaniline film formation. We have confirmed that phenazine-like oligomers do not form at pH 1, neither in the chemical nor the electrochemical oxidation of aniline; however, they form in both chemical and electrochemical oxidation of aniline at pH 7. Phenazine-like oligomers are thus definitely not necessary intermediates for PANI film formation, not even in the chemical polymerization of aniline. Finally, the redox behavior of phenazine-like oligomers was demonstrated in a medium at pH 1.

Abstract
This paper discusses the biological and three-dimensional molecular structure of the novel, nonpeptide Y2R antagonist, SF-11 [N-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-4-(hydroxydiphenylmethyl)-1-piperidinecarbothioamide]. Pharmacokinetic studies in a rat model indicated that, following intraperitoneal dosing, SF-11 crossed the blood-brain barrier and was able to penetrate the brain, making it a suitable tool for behavioral studies. We showed for the first time that SF-11 decreased the immobility time in the forced swim test (FST) after acute peripheral administration (10 and 20 mg/kg), indicating that it has antidepressant potential. Inhibitors of the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathways blocked the anti-immobility effect of SF-11, suggesting that these pathways are involved in the antidepressant-like activity of SF-11 in the FST. The results of locomotor activity of rats indicate that the effects observed in the FST are specific and due to the antidepressant-like activity of SF-11. These findings provide further evidence for the antidepressant potential of Y2R antagonists. Also, the application of Fourier transform infrared absorption (FT-IR) and Raman spectroscopy (RS) methods combined with theoretical density functional theory (DFT) calculations allowed us to present the optimized spatial orientation of the investigated drug. Structural characterization of SF-11 based on vibrational spectroscopic data is of great importance and will aid in understanding its biological activity and pave the way for its development as a new antidepressant agent.

Abstract
Slow electron velocity-map imaging (SEVI) of aniline has been investigated via two-color resonant-enhanced two-photo (1+1') ionization (2C-R2PI) method. A number of vibrational frequencies in the first excited state of neutral (S1) and 2B1 ground electronic state of cation (D0) have been accurately determined. In addition, photoelectron angular distributions (PADs) in the two-step transitions are presented and reveal a near threshold shape resonance in the ionization of aniline. The SEVI spectra taken via various S1 intermediate states provide the detailed vibrational structures of D0 state and directly deduce the accurate adiabatic ionization potential (IP) of 62,271±6cm-1. Ab initio calculations excellently reproduce the experimental IP value (Theo. 62,242cm-1). For most vibrational modes, good agreement between theoretical and experimental frequencies in the S0 and D0 states of aniline is obtained to aid us to clearly assign vibrational modes. Especially, the vibrational frequencies calculated at the CASSCF level are much better consistent with experimental data than that obtained using the TDDFT and CIS methods.

Abstract
Recently, MIL-125(Ti) and NH2 -MIL-125(Ti), two titanium-based metal-organic frameworks, have attracted significant research attention in the field of photocatalysis for solar fuel generation. This work reveals that the differences between these structures are not only based on their light absorption range but also on the decay profile and topography of their excited states. In contrast to MIL-125(Ti), NH2 -MIL-125(Ti) shows markedly longer lifetimes of the charge-separated state, which improves photoconversion by the suppression of competing decay mechanisms. We used spectroelectrochemistry and ultrafast spectroscopy to demonstrate that upon photoexcitation in NH2 -MIL-125(Ti) the electron is located in the Ti-oxo clusters and the hole resides on the aminoterephthalate unit, specifically on the amino group. The results highlight the role of the amino group in NH2 -MIL-125(Ti), the electron donation of which extends the lifetime of the photoexcited state substantially.

Abstract
The azocalix[4]arenes molecules such as methylphenylazocalix[4]aren (MPcalix[4]) and methoxyphenylazocalix[4]aren (MOPcalix[4]) have been synthesized and characterized by experimental FT-IR and (1)H NMR spectral analyses. The fundamental vibrational transitions have been addressed by experimental FT-IR (4000-400 cm(-1)) technique and density functional theory (DFT) employing B3LYP level with the 6-31G(d) and 6-311G(d,p) basis sets. The (1)H NMR spectra of the studied compounds have been recorded in chloroform, and compared with computed data obtained by using gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) method. Furthermore, thermodynamic properties (heat capacity, entropy, and enthalpy changes) and frontier molecular orbitals of the molecules in the ground state have been calculated by using the same method and basis sets. The non-linear optical properties such as the first order hyperpolarizability (β0), related properties (α0 and Δα) are also computed. Information about the charge density distribution of the molecules and its chemical reactivity has been studied by mapping molecular electrostatic potential surface (MEPs). The scaled vibrational frequency values have been compared with experimental FT-IR spectroscopic data. The correlations between the observed and calculated frequencies are in good agreement with each other as well as the correlation of NMR data. The linear polarizability and first hyperpolarizability of the studied molecules indicate that the compounds are a good candidate of nonlinear optical materials.

Abstract
Detection of ethyl and methyl centralites in gunshot residues is important in forensic science due to their limited contamination from environmental sources compared to other organic residues. However, the vibrational frequencies of centralites are little explored and their frequency assignments are incomplete. Herein, we investigated vibrational frequencies of centralites based on Density functional theory (DFT) to understand their vibrations. The simulated frequencies exhibit excellent agreement with the experimental data, and the detailed assignments are comprehensively elaborated. We also demonstrate that centralite particles could be detected through Raman imaging based on their fingerprints. This work is very important for the further vibrational studies in detecting and tracing centralites in gunshot residues.

Abstract
The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and Fourier transform Raman (FT-Raman) spectra of 2-amino-5-bromo-6-methyl-4-pyrimidinol (ABrMP) were recorded in the region 4000-400 and 3500-100 cm(-1), respectively. The conformational stability, geometrical structure, vibrational frequencies, infrared intensities and Raman activities were carried out by DFT (B3LYP and LSDA) methods with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. The calculated results show good agreement with observed spectra. The charge delocalization have been analyzed using NBO analysis by LSDA/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. The NLO properties (μ, α0, Δα, β0 and βvec) have been computed quantum mechanically. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies show that, the charge transfer occurs within the molecule. The solvent effects have been calculated using TD-DFT and the results are in good agreement with experimental measurements. The other molecular properties like Mulliken population analysis, electrostatic potential (ESP) and thermodynamic properties of the title compound at the different temperatures have been calculated.

Abstract
Time-resolved photoelectron imaging was used to investigate the electronic relaxation dynamics of gas-phase aniline, N, N-dimethylaniline, and 3,5-dimethylaniline following ultraviolet excitation at 250 nm. Our analysis was supported by ab initio coupled-cluster calculations evaluating excited state energies and (in aniline) the evolution of a range of excited state physical properties as a function of N-H bond extension. Due to a lack of consistency between several earlier studies undertaken in aniline, the specific aim of this present work was to gain new insight into the previously proposed non-adiabatic coupling interaction between the two lowest lying singlet excited states S1(ππ(∗)) and S2(3s/πσ(∗)). The methyl-substituted systems N, N-dimethylaniline and 3,5-dimethylaniline were included in order to obtain more detailed dynamical information about the key internal molecular coordinates that drive the S1(ππ(∗))/S2(3s/πσ(∗)) coupling mechanism. Our findings suggest that in all three systems, both electronic states are directly populated during the initial excitation, with the S2(3s/πσ(∗)) state then potentially decaying via either direct dissociation along the N-X stretching coordinate (X = H or CH3) or internal conversion to the S1(ππ(∗)) state. In aniline and N, N-dimethylaniline, both pathways most likely compete in the depletion of S2(3s/πσ(∗)) state population. However, in 3,5-dimethylaniline, only the direct dissociation mechanism appears to be active. This is rationalized in terms of changes in the relative rates of the two decay pathways upon methylation of the aromatic ring system.

Abstract
The molecular structure, geometry optimization, vibrational frequencies of organic dye sensitizer 2,6-Diamino-4-chloropyrimidine (DACP) were studied based on Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) using B3LYP methods with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectrum was investigated by time dependent DFT (TD-DFT). Features of the electronic absorption spectrum in the UV-Visible regions were assigned based on TD-DFT calculation. The absorption bands are assigned to transitions. The interfacial electron transfer between semiconductor TiO2 electrode and dye sensitizer DACP is due to an electron injection process from excited dye to the semiconductor's conduction band. The observed and the calculated frequencies are found to be in good agreement. The energies of the frontier molecular orbitals (FMOS) have also been determined. The chemical shielding anisotropic (CSA) parameters are calculated from the NMR analysis, Stability of the molecule arising from hyperconjugative interactions and charge delocalization has been analyzed using natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis.

Abstract
The crystal structure of new chelidamate complex of copper (II) ion, [Cu(chel)H2O(pym)]·H2O [chel: chelidamate or 4-hydroxypyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate; pym: 2-Pyridylmethanol] has been determined by single crystal X-ray crystallographic method. The complex was characterized by IR and UV-Vis spectroscopic techniques. The magnetic environment of copper (II) ion has been defined by electron paramagnetic technique (EPR). The central copper (II) ion is six-coordinate with a distorted octahedral geometry, which exhibits Jahn-Teller distortions along one of the O-Cu-O axes with tetragonality of 0.81. Chelidamate behaved as a tridentate ligand was bonded to Cu(II) ion through carboxyl oxygens with nitrogen. The crystal structure is stabilized by O-H⋯O hydrogen bond and π-π interactions. Theoretical calculations have been carried out by using the DFT method. The modeling of copper (II) complex was made by geometric optimization. The geometry optimization and EPR study were carried out using the following unrestricted hybrid density functionals: LSDA, BPV86, B3LYP, B3PW91, MPW1PW91 and HCTH. Frontier molecular orbital energies, absorption wavelengths and excitation energy were computed by time dependent DFT (TD-DFT) method with polarizable continuum model. IR spectra were discussed and compared to other relevant complexes together with theoretical results. The natural charges on the atoms and second-order interaction energies were derived from natural bond orbital analysis (NBO).
