While benzene is aromatic in its ground state, it is antiaromatic in its lowest ππ* excited states. Herein, we clarify to what extent relief of excited-state antiaromaticity (ESAA) triggers a fundamental benzene photoreaction: the photoinitiated nucleophilic addition of solvent to benzene in acidic media leading to substituted bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-enes. The reaction scope was probed experimentally, and it was found that silyl-substituted benzenes provide the most rapid access to bicyclo[3.1.0]hexene derivatives, formed as single isomers with three stereogenic centers in yields up to 75% in one step. Two major mechanism hypotheses, both involving ESAA relief, were explored through quantum chemical calculations and experiments. The first mechanism involves protonation of excited-state benzene and subsequent rearrange- ment to bicyclo[3.1.0]hexenium cation, trapped by a nucleophile, while the second involves photorearrangement of benzene to benzvalene followed by protonation and nucleophilic addition. -

Gordon* Contribution from the Department of Chemistry, North Dakota State University, Fargo, North Dakota 58105. Received November 12, 1987 Abstract: Ab initio molecular orbital theory is used to characterize a series of metal-substituted benzene and cyclopentadiene structures, with the heteroatom taken from the block in the periodic table bounded by groups IV-VI and periods 2-5. Structures are predicted with the 3-21G* basis set and SCF wave functions. The calculated bond lengths and bond angles are in general within 0.04 A and 2°, respectively, of the available experimental values. As a measure of the de localization stabilization, !::.£and t::..H0 values for the appropriate bond separation and superhomodesmic reactions are calculated with 3-21 G* Hartree-Fock energies for these compounds and some smaller acyclic structures.

Hydrogenation of Small Aromatic Heterocycles at Low Temperatures

Miksch,1 Annalena Riffelt,1 Ricardo Oliveira,2 Johannes Kästner,1 and Germán Molpeceres,1¢ 1Institute for Theoretical Chemistry, University of Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany 2Chemistry Institute, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Accepted XXX. Received YYY; in original form ZZZ ABSTRACT The recent wave of detections of interstellar aromatic molecules has sparked interest in the chemical behavior of aromatic molecules under astrophysical conditions. In most cases, these detections have been made through chemically related molecules, called proxies, that implicitly indicate the presence of a parent molecule. In this study, we present the results of the theoretical evaluation of the hydrogenation reactions of different aromatic molecules (benzene, pyridine, pyrrole, furan, thiophene, silaben- zene, and phosphorine). The viability of these reactions allows us to evaluate the resilience of these molecules to the most important reducing agent in the interstellar medium, the hydrogen atom (H). All significant reactions are exothermic and most of them present activation barriers, which are, in several cases, overcome by quantum tunneling. Instanton reaction rate constants are provided between 50 K and 500 K. For the most efficiently formed radicals, a second hydrogenation step has been studied. We propose that hydrogenated derivatives of furan, pyrrole, and specially 2,3-dihydropyrrole, 2,5-dihydropyrrole, 2,3-dihydrofuran, and 2,5-dihydrofuran are promising candidates for future interstellar detections.

The Silabenzenes: Structure, Properties, and Aromaticity
Organometallics 2000, 19, 1477-1487 1477 The Silabenzenes: Structure, Properties, and Aromaticity Kim K. Baldridge*,† San Diego Supercomputer Center, 9500 Gilman Drive, Building 109, La Jolla, California 92093-0505 Olivier Uzan and Jan M. L. Martin*,‡ Department of Organic Chemistry, Weizmann Institute of Science, 76100 Rehovot, Israel Received May 18, 1999 The electronic structure and properties of the silabenzenes series have been investigated using basis sets of spdf quality and many-body perturbation theory, hybrid density functional theory, and coupled cluster methods. Basic measures of aromatic character derived from structure, molecular orbitals, isodesmic and homodesmotic bond separation reactions, and a variety of magnetic criteria (magnetic isotropic and anisotropic susceptibilities, magnetic susceptibility exaltations, NICS) are considered. Energetic criteria suggest that 1,3,5- trisilabenzene and, to a lesser extent, 1,3-disilabenzene and its complement 1,2,3,5- tetrasilabenzene enjoy conspicuous stabilization. However, by magnetic criteria, these systems are among the least aromatic of the family: population and bond order analyses reveal that they derive part of their stability from ionic contributions to the bonding. Within their isomer series, 1,2-disilabenzene, 1,2,3-trisilabenzene, and 1,2,3,4-tetrasilabenzene are the most aromatic using magnetic criteria: overall, “magnetic aromaticity” decreases with increasing number of Si atoms. The different magnetic aromaticity criteria are fairly consistent within an isomer series: over the complete set of silabenzenes, the magnetic susceptibility exaltations correlate fairly well with the magnetic susceptibility anisotropies. Second-order Jahn-Teller effects cause deviations from planarity to occur in all systems with at least four silicon ring atoms, except for 1,2,4,5-tetrasilabenzene. -

Our main research interest is the elucidation of the similarities and differences in structures and reactivities between organic compounds and the corre- sponding heavier congeners. These studies are interesting and important from the standpoints of fundamental chemis- try, and open the way to the more extensive application of main group chemistry.

Investigation of the new complexes with a combination of X-ray diffraction, spectroscopic methods and DFT calculations 6 shows that ligand 1 is a remarkably strong electron donor. In particular, [(η -arene)M(CO)3] complexes of this ligand display the lowest CO stretching frequencies yet observed for this class of complex. Cyclic voltammetry on complexes 2-4 revealed one reversi- ble oxidation and two reversible reduction events in each case, with no evidence of ring-slippage of the arene to the η4 binding mode. Treatment of 4 with lithium metal in THF led to identification of the paramagnetic complex [(1)W(CO)3]Li·2THF (5). Compound 1 can also be reduced in the absence of a transition metal to its dianion 12–, which possesses a quinoid-type structure. Half-sandwich complexes of arenes are among the most well- Of the boron derivatives,12 neutral borabenzenes,13-14 in known of all organometallic compounds. -
