Halogen effect on structure and 13 C NMR chemical shift of 3,6-disubstituted-N -alkyl carbazoles
2013
Structures of selected 3,6-dihalogeno-N-alkyl carbazole derivatives were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,2pd) level of theory, and their 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) isotropic shieldings were predicted using density functional theory (DFT). The model compounds contained 9H, N-methyl and N-ethyl derivatives. The relativistic effect of Br and I atoms on nuclear shieldings was modeled using the spin–orbit zeroth-order regular approximation (ZORA) method. Significant heavy atom shielding effects for the carbon atom directly bonded with Br and I were observed (~−10 and ~−30 ppm while the other carbon shifts were practically unaffected). The decreasing electronegativity of the haloge…
Theoretical study of the derivative hydrocarbons of biphenylene. I. Electronic spectrum of the biphenylene
1969
The electronic spectrum of biphenylene has been studied theoretically. The investigation is based on the semi-empirical LCAO SCF MO method with various degrees of approximations. The results have been analysed with regard to the following two factors: (a) The difference in effective electronegativity between the carbon atoms in the four-membered ring and the other carbon atoms in the molecule. (b) The inclusion of doubly excited configurations in the description of the π-electronic molecular states. The theory satisfactorily interprets the excitation energies and the nature of the electronic transitions. The predictions are particularly affected by the inclusion of the doubly excited config…
A Tale of Two Isomers: Enhanced Antiaromaticity/Diradical Character versus Deleterious Ring‐Opening of Benzofuran‐fused s ‐Indacenes and Dicyclopenta…
2021
We examine the effects of fusing two benzofurans to s-indacene (indacenodibenzofurans, IDBFs) and dicyclopenta[b,g]naphthalene (indenoindenodibenzofurans, IIDBFs) to control the strong antiaromaticity and diradical character of these core units. Synthesis via 3-functionalized benzofuran yields syn-IDBF and syn-IIDBF. syn-IDBF possesses a high degree of paratropicity, exceeding that of the parent hydrocarbon, which in turn results in strong diradical character for syn-IIDBF. In the case of the anti-isomers, synthesized via 2-substituted benzofurans, these effects are decreased; however, both derivatives undergo an unexpected ring-opening reaction during the final dearomatization step. All th…
Adsorption of 3d Transition Elements on a TiO2(110) Surface.
2008
International audience; A first-principles study on the adsorption of 3d transition metal atoms on a stoichiometric TiO2(110) surface is reported. For all 3d elements except Cu, the most stable on-surface adsorption site is a site where the adatom binds to two twofold and one threefold surface oxygen atoms. For Ti, V, and Cr, however, a subsurface site, where the adatom substitutes a sixfold Ti atom, is more stable. The adatoms are oxidized in all cases. The charge transfer to the substrate is larger for the substitutional site than for the on-surface adsorption sites and decreases with atomic number along the 3d series. The relative stabilities of the adsorption sites are discussed in term…
Atomistic Modeling of a New Storage
2008
It was observed that Me/Li2O and Me/LiF nanocomposites (Me is a metal that does not alloy with lithium) are able to exhibit an extra Li storage typically beyond the uptake of stoichiometric Li in the potential window 1.2 0.02 V, with pseudo-capacitive behavior and high-rate performance. Among the composites, the Ru/Li2O exhibits a high extra Li storage at this low potential. Moreover, the Li2O matrix allows one a higher storage in contact with transition metal than the LiF matrix [1,2]. To clarify the mechanism of the Li interfacial storage anomaly, we have performed comparative first principles calculations on the atomic and electronic structure of polar Ti/Li2O(111) and nonpolar Cu/LiF(00…
Complexes of organometallic compounds. L. The correlation between 119Sn mössbauer isomer shifts and calculated partial charges on tin in adducts of t…
1981
Abstract The relationship between Mossbauer isomer shifts, δ, and atomic charges on tin, QSn has been studied for homologous series RnSnhal4−n· L2 [ n = 0−3; L2 = donor atoms of 1, 2-bis(dipheylphosphino)ethane, N, N′-ethylenebes(salicylideneimine) and N, N′-ethylenbes(acetylacetoneimine)] and Snhal4· 2PR3. Semiempirical values of QSn have been calculated by two methods based on the concept of orbital electronegativity equalization upon bond formation. Linear correlations δ/QSn are obtained, which can be function of the coordination number of the metal atom, for terms of the series characterized by different orbital electronegativities of atoms directly bound to tin. Deviations occur for ad…
Understanding the Origin of the Regioselectivity in Non-polar [3+2] Cycloaddition Reactions through the Molecular Electron Density Theory
2020
The regioselectivity in non-polar [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions has been studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT) at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. To this end, the 32CA reactions of nine simplest three-atom-components (TACs) with 2-methylpropene were selected. The electronic structure of the reagents has been characterized through the Electron Localisation Function (ELF) and the Conceptual DFT. The energy profiles of the two regioisomeric reaction paths and ELF topology of the transition state structures are studied to understand the origin of the regioselectivity in these 32CA reactions. This MEDT study permits to conclude that the least electronegative X1 end atom…
Chromatographic and spectroscopic properties of regioisomers of some 1H-1,5-benzodiazepines
1994
The separation of the two regioisomeric derivatives of 1H-1,5-benzodia- zepine yielded from the reaction of 1,2-diamino-4-methylbenzene with 4-substituted acetophenones was performed by reversed phase high per- formance liquid chromatography, and the absorption spectra of the sepa- rated isomers have been determined for three isomer pairs which have been obtained starting from acetophenones with substituents of different electronegativity. The isomer ratio then could be estimated as well from the ratio of the peak areas as from the absorption spectra. They agree well with the known ratio determined from nmr intensities
From planar to nonplanar cyclotriphosphazenes
2008
Abstract A possible existence of planar (PNX 2 ) 3 cyclotriphosphazene, where X = H, F, Cl and Br, or nonplanar (PXNX) 3 was studied at the B3LYP/6-311++G ∗∗ and MP2/6-311++G ∗∗ level of calculations. A linear correlation of total electronic energy difference (Δ E = E nonplanar − E planar ) on electronegativity of the X substituent was observed. The more stable nonplanar form was predicted (Δ E = −43.49 kcal/mol) only in case of X = H. The remaining planar halogenocyclotriphosphazenes are more stable, in agreement with a few available experimental data.
Stability of Borane−Adduct Complexes: A G-2 Molecular Orbital Study
1997
Complexation energies of H3BXHn and [H3BXHn-1]- complexes (X = N, O, F, P, S, and Cl) (n = 3, 2, 1) have been computed at the G-2 level of theory. The formation of H3BXH3 (X = N, P) is found to be more favored than the formations of H3BXH2 (X = O, S) and H3BXH (X = F, Cl). The qualitative features of the molecular orbital interaction (the correlation diagrams) of H3BNH3 (C3v symmetry group), H3BOH2 (Cs symmetry group), and H3BFH (Cs symmetry group) complexes are presented. These diagrams show that the σ character of the B−X bond decreases and the π character increases when the electronegativity of X increases and indicate that the B−X bond cannot be treated only in terms of the simplest mod…
