## Abstract The suitability of a hybrid density functional to qualitatively reproduce geometric and energetic details of parallel π‐stacked aromatic complexes is presented. The hybrid functional includes an __ad hoc__ mixture of half the exact (HF) exchange with half of the uniform electron gas exc
Thiols and sulfides interact strongly with electron-deficient aromatic systems such as flavins. Using density functional methodology, we have shown that this interaction is electrostatic in nature, with very little polarization of the sulfur electron cloud.
## Abstract We present __ab‐initio__ density functional theory studies on the interactions of small biologically active molecules, namely NO, CO, O~2~, H~2~O, and NO with the full‐size heme group. Our results show that the small molecule–iron bond is the strongest in carbonyl and the weakest in nit
Density functional calculations are reported for the molecular structures, harmonic Ž vibrational frequencies, UVrvisible spectra, and oxo-transferability of MoO X X s 2 2 . F, Cl, Br, I . Available experimental data have been used to check the validity of the theoretical calculations. Given the goo
## Abstract Surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) in a silver sol assisted by density functional theory (DFT) calculations is shown to be a promising tool in the characterization of platinum complexes and their interaction with nucleic acid bases. This is demonstrated using cisplatin and guani
