Abstract:
The title compound, 2-[((3-iodo-4-methyl)phenylimino)methyl]-5-nitrothiophene, C12H9O2N2I1S1, was synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-Vis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The molecular structure was optimized at the B3LYP, B3PW91 and PBEPBE levels of the density functional method (DFT) with the 6-311G+(d,p) basis set. Using the TD-DFT method, the electronic absorption spectra of the title compound was computed in both the gas phase and ethanol solvent. The harmonic vibrational frequencies of the title compound were calculated using the same methods with the 6-311G+(d,p) basis set. The calculated results were compared with the experimental determination results of the compound. The energetic behavior such as the total energy, atomic charges, dipole moment of the title compound in solvent media were examined using the B3LYP, B3PW91 and PBEPBE methods with the 6-311G+(d,p) basis set by applying the Onsager and the polarizable continuum model (PCM). The molecular orbitals (FMOs) analysis, the molecular electrostatic potential map (MEP) and the nonlinear optical properties (NLO) for the title compound were obtained with the same levels of theory. And then thermodynamic properties for the title compound were obtained using the same methods with the 6-311G(d,p) basis set.

02:58Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.

02:46Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than...
