Dissolution of Alumina in Cryolite Melts: A Conceptual DFT Study
Interactions between alumina and cryolite clusters were investigated using chemical reactivity descriptors based on conceptual DFT such as global hardness, η, global softness, S, fukui functions, f, and local softness, s. Hard and Soft Acids and Bases (HSAB) Principle was applied for identifying clusters that are most likely to interact with alumina ...

Minimum Magnetizability Principle [PDF]
A new electronic structure principle, viz. the minimum magnetizability principle (MMP) has been proposed and also has been verified through ab initio calculations, to extend the domain of applicability of the conceptual density functional theory (DFT) in

A conceptual DFT study of the molecular properties of glycating carbonyl compounds. [PDF]
Several glycating carbonyl compounds have been studied by resorting to the latest Minnesota family of density functional with the objective of determinating their molecular properties. In particular, the chemical reactivity descriptors that arise from conceptual density functional theory and chemical reactivity theory have been calculated through a ...

3D QSAR based on conceptual DFT molecular fields: Antituberculotic activity [PDF]
Abstract We describe the use of conceptual DFT based quantum chemical molecular fields for three-dimensional quantitative structure–activity relations (3D QSARs) and compare this new approach with the use of the default molecular property fields. The use of the new molecular fields in 3D QSAR is investigated by an application in the field of drug ...

Perfect reconstruction QMF banks for two-dimensional applications [PDF]
A theory is outlined whereby it is possible to design a M x N channel two-dimensional quadrature mirror filter bank which has perfect reconstruction property. Such a property ensures freedom from aliasing, amplitude distortion, and phase distortion.

Molecular quantum similarity using conceptual DFT descriptors
This paper reports a Molecular Quantum Similarity study for a set of congeneric steroid molecules, using as basic similarity descriptors electron density ρ(r), shape function σ(r), the Fukui functions f+(r) and f−(r) and local softness s+(r) and s−(r).

A conceptual DFT approach towards analysing toxicity
The applicability of DFT -based descriptors for the development of toxicological structure - activity relationships is assessed. Emphasis in the present study is on the quality of DFT -based descrip- tors for the development of toxicological QSARs and, more specifically, on the potential of the electrophili - city concept in predicting toxicity of ...
