Computational study of the relative stability of some glass-ionomer cement-forming molecules.

ABSTRACT: This work is part of a larger study whose main objective was to find a series of promising molecules to be used as glass-ionomer-type materials. The project was divided into 3 successive stages; the results of the first stage have been previously published and were used to continue the study. The molecules evaluated in the second stage were constructed by adding a glycidyl methacrylate molecule to the carboxylic groups of the polyacids selected in the previous stage. The modeling was done using the density functional theory for M06-2X/6-311G(d,p). The results indicate that the addition over the carboxylic groups of the fraction of the molecule, corresponding to itaconic acid, is thermodynamically favored. The final stage was modeled with the M06 functional and consisted of obtaining basic
