Introduction aromatic compounds and that the binding energies of the corresponding [4 z 2] cycloaddition products on the Si(001)- The interaction of p-conjugated aromatic compounds with 2 6 1 surface would show strong dependence on the resonance silicon surfaces is not only of fundamental interest, but also of energies of the aromatic compounds. practical importance to the development of highly ordered In Scheme 1(a), the [4 z 2] cycloaddition process is divided thin-film of conducting polymers.1,2 Growing efforts devoted into two ideal steps. First, the p-conjugated benzene is ideally to this topic include the experimental studies of the adsorption localized into a nonaromatic analog, i.e., 1,3,5-cyclohexatriene. 3 4 5 of benzene (C6H6), pyridine (C5H5N), furan (C4H4O), The energy cost (DE1) in this step should correspond to the 5,6 5b 10 thiophene (C4H4S) and pyrrole (C4H5N) on the Si(111) so-called resonance energy (RE) of benzene. Second, the surfaces and the adsorption of benzene7 and pyrrole8 on the nonaromatic analog undergoes [4 z 2] cycloaddition onto a Si(001)-2 6 1 surface, as well as the theoretical studies of SiLSi dimer. This step is exothermic with a reaction heat (DE2) benzene adsorption9 on the Si(001)-2 6 1 surface.

Therefore, the difference in revealed the occurrence of [4 z 2] cycloaddition (Diels–Alder binding energy between the [4 z 2] cycloaddition products of reaction) of benzene onto the p-bonded, ethylene-like SiLSi benzene and 1,3-cyclohexadiene should have a value close to dimer of the Si(001)-2 6 1 surface7,9 and that the binding the difference in RE between benzene and 1,3-cyclohexadiene. energy of the thus-formed di-s bonded, butterfly-like adspecies This is indeed the case, as previous B3LYP/6-31G** cluster is far lower than that of the analogous reaction of simple dienes model calculations9b did predict a difference of 32.6 kcal mol21 7a,9b [e.g., 1,3-cyclohexadiene (C6H8)] on the same surface. in binding energy between benzene and 1,3-cyclohexadiene, This intriguing phenomenon can be ascribed to the aromatic which is comparable to the difference (ca. 28.3 kcal mol21)10,11 stabilization in benzene, and can easily be understood with the in RE between benzene and 1,3-cyclohexadiene. help of a simple energy decomposition scheme that correlates Scheme 1(a) can be generalized to the cases of other the binding energy of the [4 z 2] cycloaddition product 6-member ring, aromatic compounds containing one (or more) with the resonance energy (RE) of benzene, as shown in heteroatom(s) and to those of the 5-member ring, aromatic Scheme 1(a). We will show in this communication that this compounds depicted in Scheme 1(b). For example, for a series simple scheme is applicable to other 6-, and 5-member ring of 6-member ring compounds listed in Scheme 1(a), their nonaromatic analogs contain the same localized dienes as has the 1,3-cyclohexadiene and would have similar values of DE2 when undergoing [4 z 2] addition on the Si(001) surface. Note that among them, benzene has the largest value of RE.10a It is thus deducible that the [4 z 2] cycloaddition reactions of the heterocyclic ones would be more exothermic than that of benzene and would follow such a trend that the compound having higher RE would give lower binding energy. A similar trend could also be expected for the 5-member ring compounds listed in Scheme 1(b).

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.

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.

Introduction The multiple-bond compounds including second period elements such as olefin, imine (Schiff base), ketone, acetylene, nitrile etc. are stable compounds and play a very important role in organic chemistry. Contrary to this, multiple-bond compounds containing elements from the third period onward (named as heavier main group elements), have long bond distances and their π bond energy generated through the overlapping of p-orbitals is low so that they are extremely unstable. Examples of π bond energy are shown in Table 1.1 C=C 65 N=N 60 C=O 77 C=Si 38 P=N 44 C=S 52 Si=Si 25 P=P 34 Si=S 50 Table 1.
