Photoreaction channels of the guanine-cytosine base pair explored by long-range corrected TDDFT calculations

Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2012, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/C2CP23867E, Paper
Shohei Yamazaki, Tetsuya Taketsugu
Potential energy profiles are compared for potentially competing photoinduced processes in the hydrogen-bonded guanine-cytosine base pair, including nonradiative decay in each base and proton transfer between the bases.

Polymorphs of LiFeSO4F as cathode materials for lithium ion batteries - a first principle computational study

Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2012, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/C2CP40489C, Paper
Sai Cheong Chung, Prabeer Barpanda, Shin-ichi Nishimura, Yuki Yamada, Atsuo Yamada
We investigate polymorphs of LiFeSO4F, tavorite and triplite, by density functional theory calculations. The exceptional high voltage of the triplite phase is explained by the destabilization of the delithiated phase.

Electronic structure, molecular electrostatic potential and spectral characteristics of pillar[6]arene hosts and their complexes with n-octyltriethylammonium ions

Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2012, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/C2CP23280D, Paper
Swarada R. Peerannawar, Shridhar P. Gejji
Hydrogen bonding in pillar[6]arene conformers obtained by annulus rotation of hydroquinone monomers around methylene bridge axis has been investigated. Binding patterns of pillar[6]arene and its diisobutoxy derivative with cationic n-octyltriethylammonium guest have been analyzed by NBO analysis and molecular electrostatic potential as a tool.
