effect of b12n12 junction on the energetic and chemical features of pato: a density functional theory investigation

In this study, the reaction of 3-picrylamino-1, 2, 4-triazole (pato) with b12n12 was investigated by density functional theory in the b3lyp/6-31g(d) level of theory. there were two possible isomers for reaction of pato with b12n12 via carbon and nitrogen atoms of triazole ring to the born atom of b12n12 (i and iiisomers). thermodynamic parameters of these reactions including formation enthalpy changes (δhf), gibbs free energy alterations (δgf) and heat capacity (cv) were calculated in the temperature range of 300-400k. variations of density and dipole moment values of pato after interaction were studied. also, the frontier orbital energies, homo-lumo gap, chemical hardness (η), electrophilicity index (ω), charge transferred (δnmax) and chemical potential (μ) were computed.
