Images of Hexylene glycol

Based on Quantum Chemical Computations

Executive Summary

High-quality images and the structure datafile of Hexylene glycol based on a decent quantum chemical calculation have been prepared on this webpage, which are useful not only for further scientific research and development but also for preparing professional reports, articles, presentations, webpages, books, etc. The Hexylene glycol images of 3-dimensional (3D) molecular structures, molecular surfaces, molecular orbitals, and an optimized 3D structure datafile (SDF/MOL File) are readily accessible for purchase, which have been generated on the basis of data derived from quantum chemical computations under DFT (Density Functional Theory) - B3LYP functional with 6-31G* basis set. The images have been generated on an automatic basis using the image generation engines developed as a part of Mol-Instincts Web-Information Project.

Identification of Target Chemical Substance

Due to the complicated nature of chemical substances, the pure substance to be dealt with on this webpage (target chemical substance) needs to be confirmed whether it is truly the one you are anticipating. Identification should be based upon not only its name but also its structure and/or other identifiers.

The target chemical substance is typically called “Hexylene glycol”. It contains a total of 22 atom(s) , consisting of 14 Hydrogen atom(s), 6 Carbon atom(s), and 2 Oxygen atom(s). As for the chemical bonds and functional groups, a total of 21 bond(s) comprising 7 non-H bond(s), 2 rotatable bond(s), 2 hydroxyl group(s), 1 secondary alcohol(s), and 1 tertiary alcohol(s) exist within the chemical structure.

The 2-dimensional (2D) structure, IUPAC name, formula, molecular weight, and other identifiers of Hexylene glycol are given below:

Hexylene glycol 2D structure
compound infomation
IUPAC Name 2-methylpentane-2,4-diol
Chemical Formula C6H14O2
Molecular Weight 118.17416 g/mol
SMILES String CC(O)CC(C)(C)O
InChI InChI=1S/C6H14O2/c1-5(7)4-6(2,3)8/h5,7-8H,4H2,1-3H3

Note that the IUPAC name, chemical formula, molecular weight, and SMILES (Simplified Molecular-Input Line-Entry System) string are supplementary and are not “necessary & sufficient” conditions for the identification. The 2D structure, InChI (International Chemical Identifier) and InChIKey are however unique identifiers. As an additional supplementary information for the identification, the Hexylene glycol is also called in various chemical industries as given in this URL link.

Quantum Chemical Calculations

A robust quantum chemical calculation was performed to obtain physically meaningful structure data and images. A large number of test runs have been performed to determine an optimal combination of calculation methods (e.g., Hartree-Fock, Density Functional Theory; DFT, etc.) and basis sets (e.g., STO-3G, 6-31G*, etc.). Based on the prediction accuracy analysis of entropy, dipole moment, frequency, heat capacity, magnetic susceptibility, polarizability, radius of gyration, van der Waals area, and van der Waals volume, it was concluded that the DFT-B3LYP functional with 6-31G* basis set is an optimal combination, which provides a decent accuracy as well as a reasonable computation time.

The initial 3D structure of Hexylene glycol was generated automatically by making use of the structure generation engine of Mol-Instincts, a chemical database powered by 41 patented technologies based on quantum chemical computations, statistical thermodynamics, QSPR (Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship), and an artificial neural network-based AI (Artificial Intelligence). Geometry optimization and frequency calculation followed by the RI-MP2 energy correction have been performed for Hexylene glycol using the DFT-B3LYP functional with 6-31G* basis set. The optimized structure of Hexylene glycol was verified to be at a true minimum with no imaginary frequencies.

Prior to performing the geometry optimization, the starting structure of the target chemical substance was determined with a great care to obtain a reliable optimized geometry without imaginary frequencies originated from local minima. The initial 3D structure generated by the structure generation engine was processed by a detailed conformer analysis when single bond(s) exist(s) in the target chemical substance. Depending on the number of the single bonds in the target substance, up to tens of thousands of conformers have been generated automatically. Subsequently, a simple potential energy calculation based on the MMFF94s force field was carried out for each conformer. The conformer with the lowest potential energy was then used as the starting structure of the geometry optimization.

Optimized 3D Structure Images of Hexylene glycol

Using the geometry optimization results, high-quality images of 3D molecular structures have been prepared for Hexylene glycol in 3 different models, namely, stick, ball & stick, and space-filling, which provide not only the basic structure information but also a physically meaningful configuration (e.g., bond lengths, bond angles, etc.) at the lowest energy level. The animated gif of the ball & stick model is also provided for a better visualization, which may be useful for further professional presentation and/or web publication.
