Abstract
In this paper, the nature of silver ion-nitrogen atom bonding in the complexation with ammonia, azomethine, pyridine, and hydrogen cyanide from one to four coordinations is studied at the B97-1 level of density functional theory. The results indicate that the two-coordinated complex of the silver ion with different nitrogen ligands representing sp, sp2, and sp3 orbital hybridizations is the most stable form having the shortest Ag+-N bond distance, highest vibrational frequencies, largest bond order, and favorable Gibbs free energy of formation. Natural bond orbital analyses further show that σ-donation from the nitrogen lone pair to the silver empty 5s orbital is dominant in the dative metal-ligand bonding character with N-sp3 having the largest contribution among the different N atomic orbital hybridizations. Natural energy decomposition analyses further show that the two-coordinated complexes have enhanced electrostatic interaction and charge transfer energies over other coordination types leading them to be more stable. For this reason, the two-coordinated complexes would be a better representation for studying bonding and interaction in silver ion complexes.

Abstract
There is untapped potential for materials whose crystal structures are unobtainable in the bulk state. Several examples of such structures have been found in nanomaterials, and these materials exhibit unique properties that arise from their unique electronic states and surface structures. Here, recent developments in the syntheses of these nanomaterials and their unique properties, such as hydrogen-storage ability and catalytic activity, are summarized. Firstly, the syntheses and properties of novel solid-solution alloy nanoparticles in immiscible alloy systems such as Ag-Rh and Pd-Ru are introduced. Following this, the crystal structure control of nanoscale Ru is discussed. These unique alloy materials show enhanced properties and highlight the potential of phase control to be a new strategy for nanomaterial development.

Abstract
We present nonrelativistic and relativistic benchmark databases (obtained by coupled cluster calculations) of 10 Zn-ligand bond distances, 8 dipole moments, and 12 bond dissociation energies in Zn coordination compounds with O, S, NH3, H2O, OH, SCH3, and H ligands. These are used to test the predictions of 39 density functionals, Hartree-Fock theory, and seven more approximate molecular orbital theories. In the nonrelativisitic case, the M05-2X, B97-2, and mPW1PW functionals emerge as the most accurate ones for this test data, with unitless balanced mean unsigned errors (BMUEs) of 0.33, 0.38, and 0.43, respectively. The best local functionals (i.e., functionals with no Hartree-Fock exchange) are M06-L and τ-HCTH with BMUEs of 0.54 and 0.60, respectively. The popular B3LYP functional has a BMUE of 0.51, only slightly better than the value of 0.54 for the best local functional, which is less expensive. Hartree-Fock theory itself has a BMUE of 1.22. The M05-2X functional has a mean unsigned error of 0.008 Å for bond lengths, 0.19 D for dipole moments, and 4.30 kcal/mol for bond energies. The X3LYP functional has a smaller mean unsigned error (0.007 Å) for bond lengths but has mean unsigned errors of 0.43 D for dipole moments and 5.6 kcal/mol for bond energies. The M06-2X functional has a smaller mean unsigned error (3.3 kcal/mol) for bond energies but has mean unsigned errors of 0.017 Å for bond lengths and 0.37 D for dipole moments. The best of the semiempirical molecular orbital theories are PM3 and PM6, with BMUEs of 1.96 and 2.02, respectively. The ten most accurate functionals from the nonrelativistic benchmark analysis are then tested in relativistic calculations against new benchmarks obtained with coupled-cluster calculations and a relativistic effective core potential, resulting in M05-2X (BMUE = 0.895), PW6B95 (BMUE = 0.90), and B97-2 (BMUE = 0.93) as the top three functionals. We find significant relativistic effects (∼0.01 Å in bond lengths, ∼0.2 D in dipole moments, and ∼4 kcal/mol in Zn-ligand bond energies) that cannot be neglected for accurate modeling, but the same density functionals that do well in all-electron nonrelativistic calculations do well with relativistic effective core potentials. Although most tests are carried out with augmented polarized triple-ζ basis sets, we also carried out some tests with an augmented polarized double-ζ basis set, and we found, on average, that with the smaller basis set DFT has no loss in accuracy for dipole moments and only ∼10% less accurate bond lengths.

Abstract
Currently 118 known elements are represented in the periodic table. Of these 118 elements, only about 80 elements are stable, nonradioactive, and widely available for our society. From the viewpoint of the "elements strategy", we need to make full use of the 80 elements to bring out their latent ability and create innovative materials. Furthermore, there is a strong demand that the use of rare or toxic elements be reduced or replaced while their important properties are retained. Advanced science and technology could create higher-performance materials even while replacing or reducing minor or harmful elements through the combination of more abundant elements. The properties of elements are correlated directly with their electronic states. In a solid, the magnitude of the density of states (DOS) at the Fermi level affects the physical and chemical properties. In the present age, more attention has been paid to improving the properties of materials by means of alloying elements. In particular, the solid-solution-type alloy is advantageous because the properties can be continuously controlled by tuning the compositions and/or combinations of the constituent elements. However, the majority of bulk alloys are of the phase-separated type under ambient conditions, where constituent elements are immiscible with each other. To overcome the challenge of the bulk-phase metallurgical aspects, we have focused on the nanosize effect and developed methods involving "nonequilibrium synthesis" or "a process of hydrogen absorption/desorption". We propose a new concept of "density-of-states engineering" for the design of materials having the most desirable and suitable properties by means of "interelement fusion". In this Account, we describe novel solid-solution alloys of Pd-Pt, Ag-Rh, and Pd-Ru systems in which the constituent elements are immiscible in the bulk state. The homogeneous solid-solution alloys of Pd and Pt were created from Pd core/Pt shell nanoparticles using a hydrogen absorption/desorption process as a trigger. Several atom percent replacements of Pd with Pt atoms resulted in a significantly enhanced hydrogen absorption capacity compared with Pd nanoparticles. AgxRh1-x and PdxRu1-x solid-solution alloy nanoparticles were also developed by nonequilibrium synthesis based on a polyol method. The AgxRh1-x nanoparticles demonstrated hydrogen storage properties, although pure metal nanoparticles of each constituent element do not adsorb hydrogen. AgxRh1-x is therefore considered to possess a similar electronic structure to Pd as a synthetic pseudo-palladium. The PdxRu1-x nanoparticles showed enhanced catalytic activity for CO oxidation, with the highest catalytic activity found using the equimolar Pd0.5Ru0.5 nanoparticles. The catalytic activity of the Pd0.5Ru0.5 nanoparticles exceeds that of the widely used and best-performing Ru catalysts for CO oxidation and is also higher than that of neighboring Rh on the periodic table. Our present work provides a guiding principle for the design of a suitable DOS shape according to the intended physical and/or chemical properties and a method for the development of novel solid-solution alloys.

Abstract
A large number of computational studies have been devoted to the investigation of monometallic clusters supported by MgO. However, in practice, catalysis shows that multicomponent catalytic systems often win in catalytic performance over single component systems. In this study, the geometrical and electronic structure, stability and chemisorption properties of M1M2 metal dimers (M1, M2 = Ru, Rh, Pd, Ir, Pt) supported by defect free MgO(001) have been investigated in the framework of density functional theory. The oxygen sites of MgO(001) are the preferred adsorption sites for all the studied clusters, the majority of them adsorbing parallel to the surface with metal atoms attached to two surface oxygen atoms. The energetics of M1M2 + MgO(001) formation shows that the adsorption complexes are stable and benefit from metal-oxygen and metal-metal interaction. The chemisorption properties of Pd and Pt atoms in PdM2 and PtM2 dimers are studied using CO as a probe molecule. A linear relationship between the CO chemisorption and the d-band center position of the reacting atom in the dimer is observed, extending the d-band center model to the case of highly under-coordinated metal atoms supported by a non-conductive material.

Abstract
Pd(x)Ru(1-x) solid solution alloy nanoparticles were successfully synthesized over the whole composition range through a chemical reduction method, although Ru and Pd are immiscible at the atomic level in the bulk state. From the XRD measurement, it was found that the dominant structure of Pd(x)Ru(1-x) changes from fcc to hcp with increasing Ru content. The structures of Pd(x)Ru(1-x) nanoparticles in the Pd composition range of 30-70% consisted of both solid solution fcc and hcp structures, and both phases coexist in a single particle. In addition, the reaction of hydrogen with the Pd(x)Ru(1-x) nanoparticles changed from exothermic to endothermic as the Ru content increased. Furthermore, the prepared Pd(x)Ru(1-x) nanoparticles demonstrated enhanced CO-oxidizing catalytic activity; Pd0.5Ru0.5 nanoparticles exhibit the highest catalytic activity. This activity is much higher than that of the practically used CO-oxidizing catalyst Ru and that of the neighboring Rh, between Ru and Pd.

Abstract
Hydroxylation of aliphatic C-H bonds is a chemically and biologically important reaction, which is catalyzed by the oxidoiron group FeO(2+) in both mononuclear (heme and nonheme) and dinuclear complexes. We investigate the similarities and dissimilarities of the action of the FeO(2+) group in these two configurations, using the Fenton-type reagent [FeO(2+) in a water solution, FeO(H(2)O)(5)(2+)] and a model system for the methane monooxygenase (MMO) enzyme as representatives. The high-valent iron oxo intermediate MMOH(Q) (compound Q) is regarded as the active species in methane oxidation. We show that the electronic structure of compound Q can be understood as a dimer of two Fe(IV)O(2+) units. This implies that the insights from the past years in the oxidative action of this ubiquitous moiety in oxidation catalysis can be applied immediately to MMOH(Q). Electronically the dinuclear system is not fundamentally different from the mononuclear system. However, there is an important difference of MMOH(Q) from FeO(H(2)O)(5)(2+): the largest contribution to the transition state (TS) barrier in the case of MMOH(Q) is not the activation strain (which is in this case the energy for the C-H bond lengthening to the TS value), but it is the steric hindrance of the incoming CH(4) with the ligands representing glutamate residues. The importance of the steric factor in the dinuclear system suggests that it may be exploited, through variation in the ligand framework, to build a synthetic oxidation catalyst with the desired selectivity for the methane substrate.

Abstract
The bonding features in metal-carbonyls including neutral M CO (M = Ni , Pd , Pt ) and M CO + (M+ = Cu +, Ag +, Au +) complexes have been elucidated at the DFT level with relativistic compact effective potentials for transition metals and 6-311+G(d) basis sets for C and O by the block-localized wavefunction (BLW) method. The BLW method can decompose the intermolecular interactions in terms of Heitler–London, polarization, and charge transfer energy contributions. Since the metal– CO bonding involves two synergic interactions, namely the σ-dative bond from the carbon lone electron pair to an empty d σ orbital on the metal, and the π back-donation from filled d π orbitals to the empty 2π* orbital on CO , the present BLW-ED analyses quantitatively demonstrated that in neutral M CO complexes the π-bonding dominates over the σ-bonding, whereas in cationic M CO + complexes, the σ-bonding plays a major role. But in both neutral and cationic species, the CO polarization induced by the metals enhances the C–O bond and increases the C–O vibrational frequencies, while the π back-donation tends to weaken the C–O bond and decrease the C–O vibrational frequencies. For neutral complexes, the latter is more prominent than the former, and consequently, there is a red-shifting of the C–O vibrational frequencies. In contrast, the π back-donation is insignificant in M CO + cations, and the C–O eventually vibrates at higher frequencies than the free CO frequency.

Abstract
Saddle point properties of three symmetric and one asymmetric hydrogen transfer and the energy of reaction of the asymmetric reactions are investigated in the present work. These reactions were calculated by various density functionals, many of which were developed in recent years, by coupled cluster theory, and by multicoefficient correlation methods based on wave function theory. Instead of comparing calculated results to "semi-experimental" values, we compared them to very accurate theoretical values (e.g., to values obtained by the Weizmann-1 method). Coupled cluster theory and the multicoefficient correlation methods MC-QCISD/3 and MCQCISD-MPW are very accurate for these reactions with mean unsigned errors below 0.94 kcal/mol. Diagnostics for multireference character add additional reliability to these results. The newly developed hybrid density functional M06-2X shows very good performance for these reactions with a mean unsigned error of only 0.77 kcal/mol; the BHandHLYP, MPW1K, and BB1K density functionals, can also predict these reactions well with mean unsigned errors less than 1.42 kcal/mol.

Abstract
Holthausen has recently provided a comprehensive study of density functional theory for calculating the s/d excitation energies of the 3d transition metal cations. This study did not include the effects of scalar relativistic effects, and we show here that the inclusion of scalar relativistic effects significantly alters the conclusions of the study. We find, contrary to the previous study, that local functionals are more accurate for the excitation energies of 3d transition method cations than hybrid functionals. The most accurate functionals, of the 38 tested, are SLYP, PBE, BP86, PBELYP, and PW91.
