A detailed discussion of the potential energy surface of bis(cyclopentadienyl)cobalt(II), cobaltocene, is given. Vibronic coupling coefficients are calculated using density functional theory (DFT). Results are in good agreement with experimental findings. On the basis of our calculation there is no second-order Jahn–Teller (JT) effect as predicted by group theory. The JT distortion can be...

Energetics and the electronic structure of various types of single-walled carbon nanotubes have been investigated by using Density Functional Theory. Armchair [n,n], zigzag [n,0] and chiral [n,m] C₄₀H₂₀ nanotubes have been considered. Calculations show that the armchair isomer is the most stable among the three types and they further reveal the factors that stabilize this isomer....

In this article, we present a theoretical investigation about the mechanism of the photochemical formation and deactivation of the metastable states observed in nitroprusside ions. The quantum chemical calculations are based on density functional theory. The peculiar photochemical and photophysical behavior of this molecule has attracted chemists' interest for a while. Due to this interest, many...

DFT investigations on the mechanism of Diels–Alder reactions of a hydroxy-ortho-quinodimethane with fumaric acid derivatives were performed to understand the origin of the syn or anti configuration of the adducts. The diene hydroxyl group and the dieneophile carboxyl group show hydrogen bonding in the transition state, significantly favouring the syn product. This reaction is poorly...
