Structure and vibrational features of the protic ionic liquid 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-undec-7-ene-8-ium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide, [DBUH][TF…
2022
Abstract The Protic Ionic Liquid (PIL) formed by neutralization of the super-strong base 1,7-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) with the super-strong acid bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)-imide (TFSI), indicated as [DBUH][TFSI], has been investigated. Its chemical physical properties and structural features have been explored using a synergy of experimental and computational tools. Molecular Dynamics-rationalised X-ray diffraction patterns highlight the major role played by hydrogen bonding (HB) in affecting morphology in this PIL. A comparison between HB features in this and in related PILs has been presented, on the base of far-IR experiments and DFT analysis. Indications of a weaker HB in…
Ab initio study of the internal rotation potential of p-disilanylbenzene and p-(1,1′,2,2′-tetramethyldisilanyl)benzene
1996
Abstract We present a detailed ab initio study of the geometrical structure and torsional potential of p -disilanylbenzene and its methyl derivative p -(1,1′,2,2′-tetramethyldisilanyl)benzene. The geometries of the different conformers have been fully optimized at the Hartree-Fock 3-21G ∗ and 6-31G ∗ levels. In all cases, the most stable conformation corresponds to the conformer in which the phenylene group lies in a plane perpendicular to the four silicon atoms. The torsional potential curves calculated using the 3-21G ∗ and 6-31G ∗ basis sets show similar features. In the case of p -(1,1′,2,2′-tetramethyldisilanyl)benzene the interactions between the hydrogen atoms of phenylene and the me…
Effect of a Rigid Sulfonamide Bond on Molecular Folding: A Case Study
2015
A disulfonamide compound with bulky aromatic side chains was prepared, and its properties as a potential building block for foldamers were evaluated. Two different solvate crystal forms of the compound were identified and compared to the structures of an analogous oligoamide and related disulfonamides. The disulfonamide is unfolded in one of the solvates, whereas in the other one, a loosely folded conformer stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond is found. Density functional calculations indicated that the loosely folded conformer is slightly more stable than its unfolded isomer. The calculations also identified a third, more tightly folded and more extensively hydrogen bonded, confor…
Molecular orbital study of conformational isomers and rotational barriers of methyl substituted hydroquinone cation radicals
1998
Abstract The torsional potential energy curve of the hydroxyl group of hydroquinone and tetramethyl-hydroquinone cation radicals were explored with various ab initio methods. The minimum and the torsional transition state geometries and energies were computed by using high accuracy density functional methods yielding the rotation barrier height and the energy difference between the cis- and trans-isomers. The obtained minimum energy geometry for the hydroquinone cation radical indicates that the CO bond has shortened when compared to the neutral species. We attribute this to the increased double-bond character of this bond. The energy minima were located for methyl-hydroquinone, 2,3-dimeth…
9‐Oxabicyclo[6.1.0]nonine
1989
Semiempirische quantenmechanische Rechnungen (MNDO) und Kraftfeldrechnungen (MM2) zeigen, das fur die drei konstitutionsisomeren cis-9-Oxabicyclo[6.1.0]nonine 1–3 jeweils zwei energiearme, zueinander diastereomere Konformere a und b existieren. Der synthetische Zugang zu den hoch gespannten Verbindungen 1–3 gelingt mit der Selenadiazolmethode oder durch Dehydrobromierung (Schemata 3, 4 und 6). Die NMR-spektroskopische Konformationsanalyse bestatigt bei 2 das vorhergesagte Konformerengleichgewicht; bei 1 gehen selbst bei –60°C die beiden Konformeren durch Umklappen des Achtrings schnell ineinander uber, und bei 3 ist praktisch nur eine Konformation populiert. 9-Oxabicyclo[6.1.0]nonynes Semie…
Bis(dichlorosilyl)methylamine - Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Conformational Analysis in the Gas Phase
1999
A straightforward preparation has been found for bis(dichlorosilyl)methylamine, (SiHCl2)2NMe (1), involving reaction between H2NMe and an excess of SiHCl3, dissolved either in pentane or THF at 253 K. 1 and a side-product, 1,3,5-trichloro-2,4,6-trimethylcyclotrisilazane, (–SiHCl–NMe–)3 (2), were identified by elemental analysis, mass spectrometry and 1H-NMR-spectroscopy. Some physical, NMR- and IR spectroscopical properties of 1 were determined. The molecular and crystal structure of 1 was investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Selected structural parameters: r(Si–N) 169.7(5), r(Si–Cl) 203.1(2)–204.4(2), r(C–N) 150.0(8) pm; a(SiNSi) 123.6(3), a(SiNC) 118.3(4)/118.0(4)°. Ab initio…
syn ‐[2.2](1,3)Cyclophane durch doppelte Photocyclodimerisierung
1988
Durch doppelte Cyclodimerisierung wird in einer Photolyse in Losung aus dem 1,3-disubstituierten Benzol 3 das syn[2.2](1,3)Cyclophan 4 erhalten. Eine kombinierte Belichtung Festkorper/Losung ergibt bei 5 das analoge System 6 mit Estergruppen. Beide Reaktionen erfolgen streng regiospezifisch durch Kopf-Kopf-Verknupfung und stereospezifisch bezuglich der syn-Geometrie im Cyclophan und der trans-Konfiguration der Vierringsubstituenten. Die einzige stereochemische Freiheit besteht in der Anordnung der Vierringe, wobei die Isomeren 4/6a,b,c, den drei moglichen Rotameren in 3 und 5 entsprechen. Wahrend das Gerust von 4 starr ist, zeigt 6 bei Raumtemp. eine langsame Inversion des zentralen 10-Ring…
The Role of C–H···H–B Interactions in Establishing Rotamer Configurations in Metallabis(dicarbollide) Systems
2010
The aim of this work is to explore the self-interaction capability of the anion [3,3′-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]– through Ccluster–H···H–B (Cc–H···H–B) dihydrogen bonds. A set of theoretical and empirical data aiming to establish the main rules that account for the binding mode between the negatively charged borane framework made by [3,3′-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]– and the [NMe4]+ ions have been compiled. The interaction between cation and anion is mainly electrostatic but the covalent contribution is also proven and quantified. The existing intermolecular H···H short contacts have been studied and are compared with available data from the Cambridge Structural Database. The results show that the electronic …
Bicyclo[6.1.0]nonine
1988
MNDO-Rechnungen zeigen, das fur die drei konstitutionsisomeren cis-Bicyclo[6.1.0]nonine (1–3) jeweils zwei energiearme, zueinander diastereomere Konformere a und b existieren. Zur experimentellen Uberprufung werden die mit der Selenadiazol-Methode oder durch Dehydrobromierung hergestellten, hoch gespannten Bicyclen mit Hilfe von 1H- und 13C-NMR-Messungen auf die Population der Konformeren und auf deren wechselseitige Umwandlung durch Inversion der Achtringe untersucht. Bicyclo[6.1.0]nonine MNDO calculations reveal that two diastereomeric conformations a and b of low energy exist for each of the three isomeric cis-bicyclo[6.1.0]nonynes (1–3). For the experimental proof, the highly strained b…
