  • Non-Empirical Calculations on the Electronic Structure of Olefins and Aromatics
    NON-EMPIRICAL CALCULATIONS ON THE ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF OLEFINS AND AROMATICS by Robert H. Findlay, B.Sc. Thesis presented for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy University of Edinburgh December 1973 U N /),, cb CIV 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I Wish to express my gratitude to Dr. M.H. Palmer for his advice and encouragement during this period of study. I should also like to thank Professor J.I.G. Cadogan and Professor N. Campbell for the provision of facilities, and the Carnegie Institute for the Universities of Scotland for a Research Scholarship. SUMMARY Non-empirical, self-consistent field, molecular orbital calculations, with the atomic orbitals represented by linear combinations of Gaussian-type functions have been carried out on the ground state electronic structures of some nitrogen-, oxygen-, sulphur- and phosphorus-containing heterocycles. Some olefins and olefin derivatives have also been studied. Calculated values of properties have been compared with the appropriate experimental quantities, and in most cases the agreement is good, with linear relationships being established; these are found to have very small standard deviations. Extensions to molecules for which there is no experimental data have been made. In many cases it has been iôtrnd possible to relate the molecular orbitals to the simplest member of a series, or to the hydrocarbon analogue. Predictions of the preferred geometry of selected molecules have been made; these have been used to predict inversion barriers and reaction mechanisms. / / The extent of d-orbital participation in molecules containing second row atoms has been investigated and found to be of trivial importance except in molecules containing high valence states of the second row atoms.

Academic Editor: Steve Scheiner Received: 31 March 2018; Accepted: 11 April 2018; Published: 14 April 2018 Abstract: Ab initio MP2/aug’-cc-pVTZ calculations have been performed to investigate the complexes of CO2 with the azoles pyrrole, pyrazole, imidazole, 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-triazole, tetrazole and pentazole. Three types of complexes have been found on the CO2:azole potential surfaces. These include ten complexes stabilized by tetrel bonds that have the azole molecule in the symmetry plane of the complex; seven tetrel-bonded complexes in which the CO2 molecule is perpendicular to the symmetry plane; and four hydrogen-bonded complexes. Eight of the planar complexes are stabilized by Nx···C tetrel bonds and by a secondary interaction involving an adjacent Ny-H bond and an O atom of CO2. The seven perpendicular CO2:azole complexes form between CO2 and two adjacent N atoms of the ring, both of which are electron-pair donors. In three of the four hydrogen-bonded complexes, the proton-donor Nz-H bond of the ring is bonded to two C-H bonds, thereby precluding the planar and perpendicular complexes.

  • Synthesis of Polyheteroatomic Heterocycles: Relevance of Microwave-Assisted Reactions
    Synthesis of polyheteroatomic heterocycles: relevance of microwave-assisted reactions Daniele Canestrari Dissertação para obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Química Orientadores: Prof. Pedro Paulo de Lacerda e Oliveira Santos Prof. Enrico Marcantoni Júri Presidente: Profª. Maria Matilde Soares Duarte Marques Vogais: Prof. Pedro Paulo de Lacerda e Oliveira Santos Prof. Corrado Bacchiochi Doutora Alexandra Maria Moita Antunes Maio de 2014 Abstract Heterocyclic structures, components of a large number of molecules, have been studied since the mid- 1800s due to their wide occurrence in nature, such as in the Heme and Chlorophyll A, and the discovery of their usefulness in organic chemistry, creating an interesting new branch, which continues today. From the first applications of simple heterocycles in main fields of research, such as in medicine, pharmaceutical, agrochemical and energy materials, polyheteroatomic heterocycles have achieved a remarkable position in the development of new products for clinical use with most advantageous features that allow different interactions with the biological target, not always possible with a simple heterocyclic ring. And this is the real aim of this thesis, based on a new research project on particular polyheteroatomic heterocyclic systems, namely 1,2,5-oxadiazoles, also called furazans, five-membered rings likely to be useful for the architectural structure of new drugs. Furthermore, this work wants to propose possible innovative methods to synthesize furazans from acyclic substrates in order to obtain specific heterocycles with particular substituents on the ring. Even more importantly, our attention has focused on the possibility to exploit microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) for its ability to optimize strategies both from the point of view of the time and of the yield.

The ts ability of the pentazole cation is explored by examining the decomposition pathways of several monosubstituted cations (RN5H+) to yield N2 and the corresponding azidinium cation. The heats of formation of these cations, which are based on isodesmic (bond-type conserving) reactions, are calculated. The proton-transfer reaction from the cation to the anion is investigated.

  • Crystalline Hydro-Nitrogens at High Pressure
    Pentazole and Ammonium Pentazolate: Crystalline Hydro-Nitrogens at High Pressure Brad A. Steele and Ivan I. Oleynik∗ Department of Physics, University of South Florida, 4202 E. Fowler Ave., Tampa, FL 33620 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Two new crystalline compounds, pentazole (N5H) and ammonium pentazolate (NH4)(N5), both featuring cyclo-N5− are discovered using first principles evolution- ary search of the nitrogen-rich portion of the hydro-nitrogen binary phase diagram (N H , x y) at high pressures. Both crystals consist of the pentazolate N− anion x y ≥ 5 + + and ammonium NH4 or hydrogen H cations. These two crystals are predicted to be thermodynamically stable at pressures above 30 GPa for (NH4)(N5) and 50 GPa for pentazole N5H. The chemical transformation of ammonium azide (NH4)(N3) mixed with di-nitrogen (N2) to ammonium pentazolate (NH4)(N5) is predicted to become energetically favorable above 12.5 GPa. To assist in identification of newly synthesized compounds in future experiments, the Raman spectra of both crystals are calculated and mode assignments are made as a function of pressure up to 75 GPa. arXiv:1702.04326v1 [cond-mat.mtrl-sci] 14 Feb 2017 Introduction Pentazole N5H, a hydro-nitrogen molecule containing all-nitrogen aromatic ring N5, has been in the focus of intensive experimental efforts of synthetic chemists for at least a century1–4. 1 Although theory predicted its existence as a metastable species with a local minimum on the potential energy surface confined by a large activation barrier5, this planar pentagon of N atoms connected to one H atom is short-lived in the gas phase, making the synthesis of this last member of azole series very difficult6–8.
