Density functional theory was used to study the thermodynamics and kinetics for the glycosidic bond cleavage in deoxyuridine. Two reaction pathways were characterized for the unimolecular decomposition in vacuo. However, these processes are associate

Hydrogen-bonded complexes between water and cytosine are investigated. Particular emphasis is placed on a (O2–N3) complex involving two cytosine acceptors since previous work described difficulties characterizing this potential minimum. B3LYP calcu

The present study uses density functional theory to investigate the effects of hydrogen bonding on the acidity of C5- and C6-substituted uracil derivatives. The proton affinities and acidities of uracil donor and acceptorsites generally decrease and

The geometry and relative energies of torsional conformers of centrally protonated C4H11+ were studied with ab initio methods, to (a) obtain the most accurate geometry of the three-center–two-electron CHC bond to date, (b) evaluate the performance

A hypothetical five-step catalytic cycle for Bronsted-mediated fission of an all-trans n-alkane was examined using density functional theory. Optimized geometries and transition states were determi...

The slight variations among the proton affinities and bond strengths of the C−C bonds in straight-chain n-alkanes have been determined to 1 kcal mol-1 accuracy for the first time, using computational quantum chemistry. Four computational methods (B

The present study uses density functional theory to carefully consider the effects of the environment on the enhancement in (natural and damaged) DNA nucleobase acidities because of multiple hydrogen-bonding interactions. Although interactions with o

The effects of hydrogen-bonding interactions with amino acids on the (N1) acidity of uracil are evaluated using (B3LYP) density functional theory. Many different binding arrangements of each amino acid to three uracil binding sites are considered. Th

Density functional theory is used to study the hydrogen bonding pattern in cytosine, which does not contain alternating proton donor and acceptor sites and therefore is unique compared with the other pyrimidines. Complexes between various small molec

Complexes between ammonia, water, or hydrogen fluoride and adenine, guanine, or their 8-oxo derivatives are investigated using density-functional theory. The binding strengths of the neutral and (N9) anionic complexes are considered for a variety of
