Covalent functionalization by cycloaddition reactions of pristine, defect-free graphene [PDF]
Based on a low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy study, we present a direct visualization of a cycloaddition reaction performed for some specific fluorinated maleimide molecules deposited on graphene. These studies showed that the cycloaddition reactions can be carried out on the basal plane of graphene, even when there are no pre-existing ...

Photo-induced reactions from efficient molecular dynamics with electronic transitions using the FIREBALL local-orbital density functional theory formalism [PDF]
The computational simulation of photo-induced processes in large molecular systems is a very challenging problem. Here, we present a detailed description of our implementation of a molecular dynamics with electronic transitions algorithm within the local-orbital density functional theory code Fireball, suitable for the computational study of these ...

Machine learning-guided computational screening of new bio-orthogonal click reactions [PDF]
Bio-orthogonal click chemistry has become an indispensable part of the biochemist's toolbox. Despite the wide variety of applications that have been developed in recent years, only a limited number of bio-orthogonal click reactions have been discovered so far, most of them based on (substituted) azides. In this work, we present a computational workflow

Fused nitrogen‐bridgehead N,O‐acetals receive specific emphasis as pivotal scaffolds due to their significant role in the bioactivity of medicinally relevant molecules. Significant approaches have been reported on their role as key synthetic building blocks/motifs in the construction of complex organic molecules and their utility as chiral auxiliaries ...

Synthesis of 1,2,3-triazole functionalized hyperbranched poly(ethyleneimine) and its use as multifunctional anionic macroinitiator for diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A curing [PDF]
Hyperbranched poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) has been modified by the addition of propargyl acrylate following a Michael addition reaction. On this polymer (PEI-yne) a copper (I)-catalyzed azide alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) has been performed to obtain a ...

Functionalization of Silicon Surface by Thiadiazole Molecule : a DFT Study [PDF]
The first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used to investigate the atomic and electronic properties of thiadiazole adsorption on the Si(001) surface. A (2x2) reconstructed clean substrate surface has been chosen to give the molecule sufficient space to relax into its most favorable position.

On the Facile Synthesis of Triazaarsoles Using Acyclic Precursors
Easily accessible dichloroarsanes are suitable precursors for the synthesis of novel triazaarsoles, the arsenic analogues of tetrazoles and triazaphospholes. Our findings pave the way to access and fully investigate such aromatic arsenic heterocycles in detail.

Concerted [4 + 2] and Stepwise (2 + 2) Cycloadditions of Tetrafluoroethylene with Butadiene: DFT and DLPNO-UCCSD(T) Explorations. [PDF]
Tetrafluoroethylene and butadiene form the 2 + 2 cycloadduct under kinetic control, but the Diels-Alder cycloadduct is formed under thermodynamic control. Borden and Getty showed that the preference for 2 + 2 cycloaddition is due to the necessity for syn-
