A bucky onion from C-20 and C-60 - an AM1 treatment

2001-07-09
Türker, Burhan Lemi
A bucky onion-like composite system of C-20 in C-60 Structure was subjected to semiempirical quantum chemical treatment at the level of AMI-REF type calculations. The composite system was found to be a highly endothermic but stable structure. Strong 'through-space' type interaction between C-20 and C-60 shells should exist resulting a dipole moment originating from C-60 shell to C-20 shell. Thus, the composite system should have anisotropic polarizability. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science BN. All rights reserved.

A theoretical study on certain C-58 species
Türker, Burhan Lemi (2001-08-27)
Various electronic states of C-58 structure which is theoretically obtained from C-60 molecule by removing a C-2 unit and deleting a C-C bond shared by two adjacent hexagons have been considered for AM1 (UHF) type semiempirical molecular orbital calculations.
Structural and electronic properties of perchlorocoronene
Erkoç, Şakir; Erkoc, F; Turker, L (2001-01-15)
The structural and electronic properties of perchlorocoronene (C24Cl12) have been investigated theoretically by using semiempirical molecular orbital theory at the level of AM1 calculations. The optimized structure and the electronic structure of the molecule are obtained.
Structural and electronic properties of rubreneperoxides
Erkoç, Şakir (2002-02-14)
The structural and electronic properties of rubrene and three rubreneperoxide isomers have been investigated by performing molecular mechanics and semi-empirical AMI molecular-orbital self-consistent field calculations. It has been found that isolated rubrene and rubreneperoxide isomers have non-planar structure, and are stable but endothermic.
Structural and electronic properties of borazine cyclacenes
Erkoç, Şakir (2001-05-04)
The structural and electronic properties of borazine cyclacenes (BNn) have been investigated by performing semiempirical molecular orbital self-consistent field calculations at the level of AM1 method within the RHF formulation. It has been found that as the number of borazine rings increases in the arenoid belt the structures become more exothermic.
The effect of boron substitution on cyclacenes
Türker, Burhan Lemi; Azizoglu, A (2001-01-15)
AM1-type semiempirical molecular orbital treatment was performed on the Huckel-type cyclacenes having certain number of boron atoms at the peri-positions and at the fusion sites of the arenoid rings. The effect of boron atoms is generally destabilizing in all the cases as compared to their unsubstituted cyclacene counterparts. The AM1 results revealed that certain properties of the boron-substituted cyclacenes are affected not only by the number of arenoid rings they have but also by the nature of their per...
