The (CS₂)₂ dimer is a relatively simple molecular system composed of two carbon disulfide (CS₂) molecules interacting with each other through intermolecular forces. Despite its apparent simplicity, the (CS₂)₂ dimer exhibits a rich array of structural and dynamical properties that are of great interest to researchers. In this research, we present an ab initio study of the intermolecular interactions in the carbon disulfide dimer (CS₂)₂ using an improved Lennard–Jones (ILJ) potential with CCSD(T)/QZVPP calculations. The potential energy surface of (CS₂)₂ is calculated using high-level quantum mechanical calculations based on the CCSD(T)/def2-qzvpp method, which accurately accounts for electron correlation effects. The resulting potential energy surface is then fitted to an ILJ potential energy function, which includes both long-range dipole–dipole interactions and short-range repulsive interactions. The calculated potential energy surface reveals a rich variety of structural and dynamical properties of (CS₂)₂, including multiple minima and saddle points, which are sensitive to the relative orientation of the two CS₂ molecules. It is essential to use extended basis sets to accurately incorporate the significant quadrupole moment of CS₂, which we have calculated to be 2.44 a.u. The results of this study demonstrate the importance of using high-level ab initio methods for the accurate calculation of potential energy surfaces in complex molecular systems such as (CS₂)₂. The use of an ILJ potential, which takes into account both dipole–dipole interactions and short-range repulsive interactions, provides a more accurate and efficient approach for modeling intermolecular interactions in (CS₂)₂ and other similar systems. The results of this study will be useful for understanding the behavior of carbon disulfide dimers in different environments and for the development of new materials and chemical processes.</p>","PeriodicalId":16829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48972184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the above, this work was carried out on the hydroperoxyl radical scavenging activity of three estrogens—estriol (EST), estradiol (ESD), and estrone (ESO)—in lipid and aqueous media by theoretical methodologies employing the DFT. In lipid and aqueous media, hydrogen transfer was the main reaction mechanism on the hydroperoxyl radical scavenging of EST, ESD, and ESO. The reaction rate constants calculated in lipid media were 1.08 × 10⁶, 8.39 × 10⁴, and 6.43 × 10⁴ M⁻¹ s⁻¹ for the EST, ESD, and ESO, respectively. The reaction rate constants calculated in aqueous media were 3.00 × 10⁶, 3.58 × 10^6, and 1.05 × 10⁸ M⁻¹ s⁻¹ on the hydroperoxyl radical scavenging activity of EST, ESD, and ESO, respectively. The results also showed that the EST, ESD, and ESO estrogens could scavenge high reactivity radicals through the SET mechanism in aqueous media.
