Abstract
A series of derivatives (DOCD2-DOCD6) with D-π-A configuration was designed by substituting various efficient donor moieties via the structural tailoring of o-DOC6-2F. Quantum-chemical approaches were used to analyze the optoelectronic properties of the designed chromophores. Particularly, M06/6-311G(d,p) functional was employed to investigate the non-linear optical (NLO) response (linear polarizability ⟨α⟩, first (βtot) and second ([Formula: see text]tot) order hyperpolarizabilities) of the designed derivatives. A variety of analyses such as frontier molecular orbital (FMO), absorption spectra, transition density matrix (TDMs), density of states (DOS), natural bond orbital (NBO) and global reactivity parameters (GRPs) were employed to explore the optoelectronic response of aforementioned chromophores. FMO investigation revealed that DOCD2 showed the least energy gap (1.657 eV) among all the compounds with an excellent transference of charge towards the acceptor from the donor. Further, DOS pictographs and TDMs heat maps also supported FMO results, corroborating the presence of charge separation states along with efficient charge transitions. NBO analysis showed that π-linker and donors possessed positive charges while acceptors retained negative charges confirming the D-π-A architecture of the studied compounds. The λmax values of designed chromophores (659.070-717.875 nm) were found to have broader spectra. The GRPs were also examined utilizing energy band gaps of EHOMO and ELUMO for the entitled compounds. Among all the derivatives, DOCD2 showed the highest values of βtot (7.184 × 10-27 esu) and [Formula: see text]tot (1.676 × 10-31 esu), in coherence with the reduced band gap (1.657 eV), indicating future potentiality for NLO materials.

Abstract
In the current research work, unsymmetrical acyl thiourea derivatives, 4-((3-benzoylthioureido)methyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid (BTCC) and methyl 2-(3-benzoylthioureido)benzoate (MBTB), have been synthesized efficiently. The structures of these crystalline thioureas were unambiguously confirmed by single-crystal diffractional analysis. The crystallographic investigation showed that the molecular configuration of both compounds is stabilized by intramolecular N-H···O bonding. The crystal packing of BTCC is stabilized by strong N-H···O bonding and comparatively weak O-H···S, C-H···O, C-H···π, and C-O···π interactions, whereas strong N-H···O bonding and comparatively weak C-H···O, C-H···S, and C-H···π interactions are responsible for the crystal packing of MBTB. The noncovalent interactions that are responsible for the crystal packing are explored by the Hirshfeld surface analysis for both compounds. The void analysis is performed to find the quantitative strength of crystal packing in both compounds. Additionally, state-of-the-art applied quantum chemical techniques are used to further explore the structure-property relationship in the above-entitled molecules. The optimization of molecular geometries showed a reasonably good correlation with their respective experimental structures. Third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) polarizability calculations were performed to see the advanced functional application of entitled compounds as efficient NLO materials. The average static γ amplitudes are found to be 27.30 × 10-36 and 102.91 × 10-36 esu for the compounds BTCC and MBTB, respectively. The γ amplitude of MBTB is calculated to be 3.77 times larger, which is probably due to better charge-transfer characteristics in MBTB. The quantum chemical analysis in the form of 3-D plots was also performed for their frontier molecular orbitals and molecular electrostatic potentials for understanding charge-transfer characteristics. We believe that the current investigation will not only report the new BTCC and MBTB compounds but also evoke the interest of the materials science community in their potential use in NLO applications.

Abstract
This study spotlights the fundamental insights about the systematic and comparative analysis of four famous hybrid classes of density functional theory (DFT) methods and their efficacy to calculate the linear and nonlinear optical (NLO) polarizabilities. For this study, urea and para-nitroaniline ([Formula: see text]-NA) molecular geometries are used as prototypes to calculate their linear and NLO properties. For comparative purposes, these molecules are often used as reference organic molecules for determination of NLO response properties and there is a dire need for such a benchmark database to be utilized by the researchers. We report systematically a range of functionals including hybrid (B3LYP, PBE1PBE, BH and HLYP), meta-hybrid (M06, M06-2X, M06-HF, M06-L), long-range corrected (CAM-B3LYP, LC-BLYP, LC-B97D, LC-B97D3) and functional with dispersion correction ([Formula: see text]B97, [Formula: see text]B97X, [Formula: see text]B97XD, HSEH1PBE). These groups are evaluated and their efficiency to calculate linear and NLO properties is graphically compared with each other. Overall, there are less deviations among different functionals for calculating dipole moments of [Formula: see text]-NA and urea while these deviations enhance as one moves from dipole moment to linear polarizability and nonlinear hyperpolarizabilities. In general, if we look at the trends, the polarizability values of B3LYP, M06-L, CAM-B3LYP and HSEH1PBE are relatively large and can be compared with each other. The dispersion corrected and long-range corrected functionals show more systematic deviations. For instance, among dispersion corrected functionals, the amplitudes of dipole moments, linear polarizability and NLO polarizabilities show an increasing trend as [Formula: see text]. It is also important to note that LC-B97D and LC-B97D3 of long-range corrected functional have observed exactly the same values of all the calculated parameters. A good agreement is being observed in static first and second hyperpolarizabilities of urea (B3LYP, M06-L, M06 and HSEH1PBE) and [Formula: see text]-NA (B3LYP, M06, M06-L, CAM-B3LYP and HSEH1PBE). Thus, we believe that the current investigation will provide the benchmark data of reference NLO molecules at different methods for theoretical community and molecular level insights for experimental community to design better NLO materials for hi-tech NLO applications.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of polymerization (n = 1, 2, 3, and 4) on the charge-transfer (CT) mechanisms in the one (two)-photon absorption (OPA and TPA) process of D-A-type triphenylamine derivatives, charge density difference is used to graphically represent the CT characteristics. A transition density matrix is utilized to reveal the direction of CT on different groups quantitatively. With the n increasing, electrons are mainly transferred between the groups in the middle position of the molecular chain during OPA and TPA processes. Simulated results show that the energy gap and excitation energy have a good linear relationship with the reciprocal of the polymerization degree. Importantly, the polymerization effect can effectively increase the electronic transmission capability, TPA performance, and second hyperpolarizability. Besides, the simplified sum over state model reveals the variation factor of the TPA cross-section and the second static hyperpolarizability. The McRae formula and Bakhshiev formula are used to estimate the difference of dipole moments, which is an important parameter of the second hyperpolarizability. The comprehensive analysis of the nonlinear optical (NLO) parameters of triphenylamine derivatives can provide some significant guidance for molecular design and improve the NLO performance of D-A molecular materials. Also, the thermodynamic parameters can provide some theoretical supports for solving practical problems.

Abstract
The present study explores a series of novel donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) molecules containing 4,4'-dimethyldiphenylamine moiety as donor, 4,4'-dinitrodiphenylborane as acceptor while different π-bridges as efficient linkers between them, which comprises of (-HCCH-)n, (-Ph-)n and (-Ph ̶ HCCH-)n combinations for compounds in series 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Quantum chemical computations are applied to calculate the linear polarizability (α), first (β) and second (γ) hyperpolarizabilities. A comparative analysis is performed considering an increase of NLO polarizabilities as a function of different π-linkers. Among the investigated compounds, 3c shows the largest first and second hyperpolarizabilities of 1378 × 10-30 and 34971 × 10-36 esu, respectively. Interestingly, an increase in NLO polarizability is observed by modifying the π-conjugated bridges and the largest NLO polarizability is observed for series 3 possessing (Ph ̶ HCCH-)n π-linker which is found due to its lower transition energy and higher oscillator strengths. Furthermore, TD-DFT investigations, frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) and electron density difference (EDD) maps analysis have shown a more efficient intramolecular charge transfer character from donor to acceptor moieties through (Ph ̶ HCCH-)n π-linkers. The density of states (DOS) maps are showing explicit contributions of electronic states from different fragments of a molecular system where the partial contributions of (Ph ̶ HCCH-)n π-linkers is seen significant in HOMO-LUMO orbitals of all the systems in series number 3. Thus, we believe that our study will highlight the importance of different D-π-A chromophores having variant types of π-conjugation cores as discussed in the present investigation.

Abstract
Two cocrystals of 18-crown-6 with isophthalic acid derivatives, 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid and trimesic acid, have been successfully grown by the slow evaporation solution growth technique. Crystal structures of (18-crown-6)·6(5-hydroxyisophthalic acid)·10(H2O) (I) and (18-crown-6)·2(trimesic acid)·2(H2O) (II) elucidated by single crystal X-ray diffraction reveal that both cocrystals pack the centrosymmetric triclinic space group P{\overline 1}. The molecules are associated by strong/weak hydrogen bonds, π...π and H...H stacking interactions. Powder X-ray diffraction analyses, experimental and simulated from single-crystal diffractogram data have been matched. The vibrational patterns in FT-IR spectra are used to identify the functional groups. The band gap energy is estimated by the application of the Kubelka-Munk algorithm. Hirshfeld surfaces derived from X-ray diffraction analysis reveal the type of molecular interactions and their relative contributions. The constructed supramolecular assembly of crown ether cocrystal is thoroughly described. Both cocrystals exhibit a significant third-order nonlinear optical response and it is observed that (I) possesses a significant first-order molecular hyperpolarizability whereas it is negligible for (II).

Abstract
In the present investigation, for the first time, we have performed a thorough study about different functionals and basis sets for linear and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of para-nitroaniline ([Formula: see text]-NA), which is considered as proto-type NLO molecule, among organic NLO materials. There is a dire need of such data base for [Formula: see text]-NA because many investigators are using such values of [Formula: see text]-NA for comparative analysis. A range of different functionals including HF, BLYP, PW91, PBE, B3LYP, M06, M06-2X, PBE0, BHandHLYP, CAM-B3LYP, LC-BLYP, and B3LYP-D3 are applied in conjugation with several commonly basis sets such as 6-31G*, 6-311G*, 6-311G**, 6-311+G**, cc-pVDZ, and cc-pVTZ. A variety of functional and basis sets combinations are calculated and graphically compared with each other. The calculated total dipole moment for the [Formula: see text]-NA is found to be 6.79[Formula: see text]D which is quite closer to experimentally determined value. The lowest calculated value for linear isotropic polarizability at HF/6-31G* level of theory is [Formula: see text] esu while higher values observed with remaining all methods especially 14% polarizability increases in presence of basis set with diffuse functions and similar trend of variation is also observed in linear anisotropic polarizability. Similarly, the calculated value of frequency dependent second-order polarizability is found to be [Formula: see text] esu at PBE0/6-311+G** level of theory which is quite closer to experimental value of [Formula: see text] esu. A comparison between the calculated and experimental results shows good agreement among geometries, dipole moments and NLO polarizabilities for [Formula: see text]-NA. Moreover, the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) and electron density difference map (EDDM) analysis along with density of state (DOS) plots are also presented to get more physical intuitions into the structure–property relationship and electronic communications between terminal accepter and donor groups through [Formula: see text]-conjugation. The present investigation provides benchmark data including various commonly used functionals and basis sets for the calculation of NLO properties of [Formula: see text]-NA. Thus, the present investigation will put straight several future studies when it comes to comparative NLO study of organic materials.

Abstract
In the present quantum chemical investigation, we predict several novel transition metal complexes which are designed using tridentate ONO donor type Schiff base ligand (2-((E)-((Z)-4-hydroxypent-3-en-2-ylidene) amino) phenol). The stable molecular geometries of newly designed metal complexes are obtained using density functional theory (DFT) methods. Several properties including geometrical parameters, energies of frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs), and interaction energies are calculated for optimized metal complexes. The more negative interaction energies illustrate more susceptibilities of the reaction of metal cations with ligand. The charge transfers from ligand to metals are observed in the d7 and d8 metal complexes while it is seen as backdonation of charge from metal to ligand in the d10 complexes. The quantum chemical characterizations are performed for calculating UV-visible spectra and IR frequencies for all the designed metal complexes. All designed metal complexes show multiple absorption peaks in UV region ranging from 184 to 376 nm, which are related to metal to ligand and ligand to metal charge transfer processes. The IR frequency analysis shows that the -C=N- stretching frequency of ligand in the region of 1650-1580 cm-1 is decreased by between 50 and 100 cm-1, which may assign the coordination of ligand with metal via nitrogen. Moreover, the investigations of nonlinear optical (NLO) polarizabilities among selected complexes show that these complexes may possess good potential for NLO applications. The most interesting results are found about the third-order NLO polarizabilities (γ||) where the γ|| amplitudes are found to be 60.01 × 10-36, 56.48 × 10-36, 90.04 × 10-36, and 64.57 × 10-36 esu for complexes 1, 2, 9, and 10, respectively. Thus, we believe that the present investigation may bring the newly designed metal complexes in the limelight of scientific interest for their practical realization in optical and nonlinear optical applications. Graphical abstract Several novel transition metal complexes are designed using tridentate ONO donor type Schiff base ligand as efficient NLO materials.

Abstract
Excess-electron compounds can be considered as novel candidates for nonlinear optical (NLO) materials because of their large static first hyperpolarizabilities (β0 ). A room-temperature-stable, excess-electron compound, that is, the organic electride Na@(TriPip222), was successfully synthesized by the Dye group (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2005, 127, 12416). In this work, the β0 of this electride was first evaluated to be 1.13×106 au, which revealed its potential as a high-performance NLO material. In particular, the substituent effects of different substituents on the structure, electride character, and NLO response of this electride were systemically studied for the first time by density functional theory calculations. The results revealed that the β0 of Na@(TriPip222) could be further increased to 8.30×106 au by introducing a fluoro substituent, whereas its NLO response completely disappeared if one nitryl group was introduced because the nitro-group substitution deprived the material of its electride identity. Moreover, herein the dependence of the NLO properties on the number of substituents and their relative positions was also detected in multifluoro-substituted Na@(TriPip222) compounds.

Abstract
Using density functional theory (DFT) methods, the nonlinear optical (NLO) properties have been calculated with strong donor-π-conjugation-acceptor configurations. The static first hyperpolarizability (β0) and dynamic (frequency dependent) electric field induced second harmonic generation (EFISHG) first hyperpolarizability (μβ) are calculated for all designed systems. Our DFT calculations show dithienophenazine merged TTF (2) holds larger β0 amplitudes (β0=21.04×10(3)a.u.) as compared to its corresponding compounds of TTF merged-difurophenazine (1), dicyclopentaphenazine (3) and dipyrrolophenazine (4) derivatives having β0 amplitudes of 16.25×10(3), 12.69×10(3), and 18.38×10(3)a.u., respectively. Furthermore, substitution of dimalononitrile [C(CN)2]2 groups at acceptor end of these compounds results in new derivatives 1a-4a, respectively. Interestingly, a butterfly effect on first hyperpolarizability of all systems 1a-4a has been spotted, which not only results in their robustly larger β0 amplitudes but also changes the increasing order of β0 amplitudes from systems 3<1<4<2 to 1a<2a<3a<4a at both PBE0/6-31G* and CAM-B3LYP/6-31+G* levels of theory. For example, the increase in β0 amplitudes of systems 1a, 2a, 3a and 4a are 3, 3, 5, and 19 times as compared with their corresponding non dimalononitrile derivatives at PBE0/6-31G* level of theory, respectively. Remarkably, unlike the static first hyperpolarizability, the dynamic EFISHG hyperpolarizability (μβω) has the largest value for system 4a with its amplitudes of 1378.59×10(-46) and 1349.40×10(-46)esu, at PBE0/6-31G* and CAM-B3LYP/6-31+G* levels of theory, respectively. TD-DFT calculations have been performed to trace the origin of first hyperpolarizability. It has been found that the lower transition energy and higher oscillator strengths cause robustly large amplitudes especially in systems 3a and 4a, which consequently stems in strong donor-π-conjugation-acceptor configuration of these systems. Thus the present results intrigue the butterfly effect of a two-step substitution on NLO properties of TTF merged dithienophenazine compounds that can be used as an efficient NLO material.

Abstract
We have investigated computationally the effects of π-conjugation extension on naphtha[2,1-b:6,5-b'] difuran (DPNDF); where we increase the number of fused NDF (central core) and furan rings in the parent molecule. The molecular structures of all analogues have been optimized at the ground (S0) and first excited (S1) states using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT), respectively. Then highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs), the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs), photophysical properties, adiabatic/vertical electron affinities (EAa)/(EAv), adiabatic/vertical ionization potentials (IPa)/(IPv), and hole/electron reorganization energies λh/λe have been investigated. The effect of NDF and furan rings on structural and electro-optical properties has also been studied. Our calculated reorganization energies of 1a, 1b, and 2c reveal them, materials with balanced hole/electron charge transport, whereas 2a and 2b are good hole-transport materials. By increasing the number of furan rings; the photostability was augmented in 2a, 2b, and 2c.
