The Theoretical Investigation of the HOMO, LUMO energies and Chemical Reactivity of C9H12 and C7F3NH5Cl Molecules

Abstract

In this study, the chemical reactivity, stability and electronic properties of Propylbenzene (C₉H₁₂) and 2-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl) aniline (C₇F₃NH₅Cl) molecules have been investigated by using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Hartree Fock Theory (HFT) methods with difference basis sets like (B3LYP/3-21G, 6-31+G(dp), 6-31G,6-311G). The Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbitals (LUMO), and Highest Occupied Molecular Orbitals (HOMO) energies can be used to characterize the kinetic stability and chemical reactivity in chemical structure for these molecules.
