Reactivity dynamics

U Sarkar, PK Chattaraj - The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2021 - ACS Publications
The chemical reactivity of a molecule as a whole or of an atom in a molecule varies during a
chemical reaction. A variation of global and local reactivity descriptors in the course of a …

Carbazole derivatives: synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, antioxidant activity, molecular docking study, and the quantum chemical calculations

Reactivity and charge transfer beyond the parabolic model: The “| Δμ| big is good” principle

RA Miranda‐Quintana, PW Ayers… - …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
We discuss an extension of the venerable Parr‐Pearson parabolic charge transfer model
that explicitly includes 3rd order effects. We then use this new model to provide new …

Molecular interactions from the density functional theory for chemical reactivity: The interaction energy between two-reagents

RA Miranda-Quintana, F Heidar-Zadeh, S Fias… - Frontiers in …, 2022 - frontiersin.org
Reactivity descriptors indicate where a reagent is most reactive and how it is most likely to
react. However, a reaction will only occur when the reagent encounters a suitable reaction …

Chemical hardness of mesoscopic electrochemical systems directly analyzed from experimental data

DA Miranda, PR Bueno - The Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 2019 - ACS Publications
The absolute chemical hardness η for a chemical system under a steady external potential υ

The HSAB principle from a finite-temperature grand-canonical perspective

RA Miranda-Quintana, TD Kim, C Cárdenas… - Theoretical Chemistry …, 2017 - Springer
We provide a new proof for Pearson's hard/soft acid/base (HSAB) principle. Unlike
alternative proofs, we do not presuppose a simplified parabolic dependence on the energy …

describe the panorama of different types of interactions between an electronic system and …

Well-normalized charge-transfer models: a more general derivation of the hard/soft-acid/base principle

RA Miranda-Quintana, PW Ayers… - Theoretical Chemistry …, 2021 - Springer
We provide a general (yet elementary) proof of Pearson's hard/soft acid/base principle.
Contrary to previous attempts to justify this rule, we go beyond the venerable parabolic …

Thermodynamic justification for the parabolic model for reactivity indicators with respect to electron number and a rigorous definition for the electrophilicity: The …
