The relative stability of the studied compounds was affected by the possibility of intramolecular interactions between sub­stituents and the electron donor/acceptor centers of the thiazole ring. Further­more, atomic charges electron density, chemical thermodynamics, energetic properties, dipole moments, and the nucleus-independent chemical shifts (NICS) of the studied compounds and their relative stability are considered. The dipole moment values and the HOMO–LUMO energy gap reveal the different charge transfer possibilities within the considered molecules. Frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis revealed that compound <strong>6</strong> has very small HOMO-LUMO energy gaps in the considered phases, and thus is kinetically less stable. The obtained HOMO-LUMO energy gap corresponds to intramole­cular hyperconjugative interactions p®p*. Finally, NBO analysis is carried out to demonstrate the charge transfer between localized bonds and lone pairs.</p>}, number={11}, journal={Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society}, author={Miar, Marzieh and Shiroudi, Abolfazl and Pourshasian, Khalil and Oliaey, Ahmed Reza and Hatamjafari, Farhad}, year={2020}, month={Nov.}, pages={1445–1462} }
