Quantum chemical studies on -/+ 1 charged forms of nitroglycerine

Türker, Burhan Lemi
Semiempirical quantum chemical calculations at the level of AMI (UHF) method are performed on the neutral as well as 4: 1 charged systems originated from nitroglycerine. The geometry optimized systems standing for 4: 1 charged forms fragmented. All the neutral and charged systems are found to be stable and exothermic with the exception of cationic system which is endothermic in nature. The fragmentation occurs by the cleavage of ester O-N bond of the terminal ester group in the charged forms while in the cationic form also the rapture of C-C bond occurs.

Quantum chemical studies on EGDN and its monovalent ions
Türker, Burhan Lemi (Elsevier BV, 2005-03-17)
An explosive material, ethylene glycol dinitrate (EGDN) and its mono ionic forms have been subjected to semiempirical AM1 (UHF) and ab initio 6-31G (UHF) type quantum chemical analyses. The AM1 treatment reveals that the neutral and anionic forms are exothermic whereas the cation is endothermic. All of the systems are found to be stable (by AM1 and 6-31G methods) but the calculations indicate that plus and minus charge developments in AM1 treatment and minus charge development in 6-31G treatment cause drast...
Quantum chemical investigation of thalidomide molecule
Erkoç, Şakir; Erkoc, F (Elsevier BV, 2005-04-14)
The structural and electronic properties of the thalidomide molecule have been investigated theoretically by performing semi-empirical molecular orbital (AM1) and density functional theory calculations. The geometry of the molecule has been optimized by AM1 method and the electronic properties of the molecule have been calculated by density functional theory in its ground state.
PM3 treatment of lead styphnate and its mono ionic forms
Türker, Burhan Lemi (Elsevier BV, 2004-07-26)
Anhydrous lead styphnate, a static-electric-field-sensitive explosive material, has been considered for PM3 (UHF) type semiempirical quantum chemical calculations. Although, geometrically the neutral and the mono valent cation forms resemble each other, the mono valent anion has a distorted geometry indicating bond cleavage. Thus, explosion occurring in the electric field probably occurs via anion formation.
Theoretical investigation of quercetin and its radical isomers
Erkoc, E; Erkoc, F; Keskin, N (Elsevier BV, 2003-08-01)
The structural and electronic properties of quercetin and its five radical isomers have been investigated theoretically by performing semi-empirical molecular orbital theory calculations. The geometry of the systems have been optimized and the electronic properties of the systems considered have been calculated by semi-empirical self-consistend-field molecular orbital theory at the level AM1 within UHF formalism in their ground state. Conclusions have been drawn by comparing with experimental results.
Quantum chemical treatment of nitroguanidine and its mono ionic forms
Türker, Burhan Lemi (Elsevier BV, 2004-07-26)
Nitroguanidine and its mono ionic forms have been subjected to AM1 (UHF) type semiempirical as well as 6-31G** (UHF) type ab initio molecular orbital calculations. The stability order has been found to be anion > neutral > cation. The calculations have revealed that contrary to some other explosive chemicals, the charge development are accompanied by only moderate changes in bond lengths and bond angles in the case of nitroguanidine.
