Fundamental in Hückel's reasoning is the large energy difference between ground-state and excited state(s) in a ring with 4n+2 electrons, whereas 4n electrens result in a smal! energy separation. This aspect has been nicely demonstrated in a quantitative way for the cycliza­ tion of butsdiene using complete VB and MO calculations by van der Lugt and Oosterhoff2 , The same is also true fora cyclic array of orbitals with 4n and 4n+Z electrons, respec­ tively, when this interchange is accompanied with an odd number of sign inversions for the orbitals in the ring. In the latter case, we are generally speaking of Möbius aroma­ ticity: 4n electrens result in aromaticity. Using simple MO calculations, the Möbius aromaticity concept has been explored for a variety of reactions, which are commonly 3 4 known as Woodward-Hoffmann reactions ' • It attracks attention that energy lowering of transi­ tion states and stabilization of intermediates has been 5 hardly explained with the concept of Möbius aromaticity , although the thermal conrotatory conversions and the thermal sigmatropie shifts with inversion of the migrating carbon are distinct examples for 4n electron aromaticity (Figure I). 7 b Figure I: Transition state for a thermal aonrotatory con­ version (~) and a thermal sigmatropie shift with inversion of the migrating carbon (~). Of course, ground-state Möbius aromaticity has never been observed in consequence of the steric strain, which imposes a sign inversion on a small cyclic polyene. One possible way to generate ground-state 4n electron aromaticity is the preparation of bishomocyclic systems l· Sign inversion may then be realized by a simple orientation of the carbon p-orbital, which is homoconjugated with the two neighbouring carbons. 3 1 In fact, this resembles the transition state for the ther­ mal [1 ,3] C and [1 ,4] C sigmatropie shifts. In spite of the fact that the extended VB theory as was ~utlined by Oosterhoff et al. 6 is a direct tool in the search for the fundamentals determining aromaticity in the general sense, Möbius molecules seem to be exceptious or in other words their existence looks rare, whereas molecules possessing Hückel aromaticity are present in an overwhelming 8 quantity. A similar situation is encountered in antiaroma­ ticity7, i.e. 4n electrans in a Hückel arrangement or 4n+2 electrans in a Möbius cycle. From the work of Schipper and Buak 8 it appeared that if geometrical restrictions are di­ minished, the system escapes the 4n electron Hückel anti­ aramaticity via 4n-2 electron Hückel aromaticity and the simultaneous formation of a localized double bond (~). Befare this fascinating observation Buak et aZ. 9 investiga­ ted the thermal D,j]shifts in cyclic systems with a pertu­ bation approach and INDO calculations. It was clearly shown that the concept of Hückel aromaticity controls the supra­ facial shift. Unfortunately, the antarafacial shift was not discussed in a quantitative way. We may expect that the an­ tarafacial shift results in Möbius aromaticity for the transition state. Hückel vs. Möbius aromaticity is then re­ flected in the electron density on the migrating hydrogen. The value of this concept is clearly demonstrated when the shift occurs between non-bonding carbons e.g. in the supra­ fadal [1, s] H shift in cycloheptatr.iene the hydragen carries one electron, whereas in the suprafacial [1, 7] H shift, which is only of theoretica! interest, the electron density on hydragen increases. In this thesis the concept of aromaticity is fully explored with a number of experimental ex~mples. The systems derived are cations and anions which demonstrate bishomo­ conjugation resulting in Hückel and Möbius aromaticity. The various structures were established by 1 H and 13C NMR mea­ surements. Generally, the ions are derivatives of bicyclo- ~.2.1]nona-2,4,7-triene. Chapter II deals with the chemistry of the bicyclo­ ~.2.1] nona-2,4,7-trien-9-yl carbanion. According to GoLd­ 10 stein's theoretica! model , this carbanion should besta- 9 11 bilized by longicyclic interactions • The carbanions are generated by the cleavage of arylselenoketals. This strate­ gy leads to the introduetion of an arylseleno-group at the charge center. It is shown that the chemistry of the carb­ anions is dominated by the stereospecific transposition of the negative charge from the anti-Cg carbanion to the aryl ring of the introduced substituent via proton transfer. Electrophiles tend to react with the èyn-Cg carbanion. This result is compatible with the notion of a bishomoaromatic interaction12 between Cg and the diene moiety. In Chapter III the syn-c10 carbocation derivatives of bicyclo[4.2.1]nona-2,4,7-triene are introducedas possible model systems for the investigation of ground-state Möbius aromaticity. 6-Hydroxy selenide derivatives of bicyclo~.2.1]­ nona-2,4,7-triene were investigated in super acid media. It is demonstrated that neighbouring group participation13 by selenium preelucles the formation of free c,o-carbocations. Instead, exocyclic olefins and selenenyl cations are produced in a solvent cage. This initiates a rearrangement reaction for which a mechanism is given. Chapter IV describes the generation and investigation 13 1 of a-hetero-substituted c10 -cations. C and H NMR spec­ troscopy suggest that the empty orbital at c1 0 is o.rienta­ ted perpendicularly with respect to the mirror plane of the cations. The saturated analogues of these cations also adopt this configuration. The chemica! shift differences between the unsaturated cations and the saturated derivatives may suggest a certain degree of charge delocalization via Möbius aromaticity.

Reimersc,d* a School of Chemistry, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria 3010, Australia b School of Molecular Bioscience, The University of Sydney, Sydney, New South Wales 2006, Australia c School of Physics and Advanced Materials, The University of Technology, Sydney, NSW 2007, Australia d Centre for Quantum and Molecular Structure, College of Sciences, Shanghai University, Shanghai 200444, China 1 ABSTRACT We demonstrate the importance of properly accounting for London-dispersion and basis-set superposition-error (BSSE) in quantum-chemical optimizations of protein structures, factors that are often still neglected in contemporary applications. We optimize a portion of an ensemble of conformationally flexible lysozyme structures obtained from highly accurate X-ray crystallography data that serves as a reliable benchmark. We not only analyze root-mean-square deviations from the experimental Cartesian coordinates, but, for the first time, also demonstrate how London-dispersion and BSSE influence crystallographic R factors. Our conclusions parallel recent recommendations for the optimization of small gas-phase peptide structures made by some of the present authors: Hartree-Fock theory extended with Grimme’s recent dispersion and BSSE corrections (HF-D3-gCP) is superior to popular density-functional-theory (DFT) approaches. Not only are statistical errors on average lower with HF-D3-gCP, but also its convergence behavior is much better. In particular, we show that the BP86/6-31G* approach should not be relied upon as a black-box method, despite its widespread use, as its success is based on an unpredictable cancellation of errors.

  • Aromaticity Sem- Ii
    AROMATICITY SEM- II In 1931, German chemist and physicist Sir Erich Hückel proposed a theory to help determine if a planar ring molecule would have aromatic properties .This is a very popular and useful rule to identify aromaticity in monocyclic conjugated compound. According to which a planar monocyclic conjugated system having ( 4n +2) delocalised (where, n = 0, 1, 2, .....) electrons are known as aromatic compound . For example: Benzene, Naphthalene, Furan, Pyrrole etc. Criteria for Aromaticity 1) The molecule is cyclic (a ring of atoms) 2) The molecule is planar (all atoms in the molecule lie in the same plane) 3) The molecule is fully conjugated (p orbitals at every atom in the ring) 4) The molecule has 4n+2 π electrons (n=0 or any positive integer Why 4n+2π Electrons? According to Hückel's Molecular Orbital Theory, a compound is particularly stable if all of its bonding molecular orbitals are filled with paired electrons. - This is true of aromatic compounds, meaning they are quite stable. - With aromatic compounds, 2 electrons fill the lowest energy molecular orbital, and 4 electrons fill each subsequent energy level (the number of subsequent energy levels is denoted by n), leaving all bonding orbitals filled and no anti-bonding orbitals occupied. This gives a total of 4n+2π electrons. - As for example: Benzene has 6π electrons. Its first 2π electrons fill the lowest energy orbital, and it has 4π electrons remaining. These 4 fill in the orbitals of the succeeding energy level. The criteria for Antiaromaticity are as follows: 1) The molecule must be cyclic and completely conjugated 2) The molecule must be planar.

A Ph.D. thesis is by no means a singular achievement; I wish to extend my wholehearted thanks to everyone who has made this journey possible. First and foremost, I must thank my Ph.D. advisor, Prof. John Bercaw. I think more so than anything else, I respect John for his character, sense of fairness, and integrity. I also benefitted greatly from John’s laissez-faire approach to guiding our research group; I’ve always learned best when left alone to screw things up, although John also has an uncanny ability for sensing when I need direction or for something to work properly on the high-vac line. John also introduced me to hiking and climbing in the Eastern Sierras and Owens Valley, which remain amongst my favorite places on Earth. Thanks for always being willing to go to the Pizza Factory in Lone Pine before and after all the group hikes! While I never worked on any of the BP projects that were spearheaded by our co-PI Dr. Jay Labinger, I must also thank Jay for coming to all of my group meetings, teaching me an incredible amount while I was TAing Ch154, and for always being willing to talk chemistry and answer tough questions.

The combination of various ruthenium(II) thiolate complexes and tertiary hydrosilanes under variation of the phosphine ligand and the substitution pattern at the silicon atom is investigated, providing detailed insight into the activation mode. The mechanism of action involves reversible heterolytic splitting of the Si–H bond across the polar Ru–S bond without changing the oxidation state of the metal, generating a ruthenium(II) hydride and sulfur-stabilized silicon cations, i.e. metallasilylsulfonium ions.

The structural assignment is further verified by successful isolation and crystallographic characterization of these key intermediates. Quantum- chemical analyses of diverse bonding scenarios are in excellent agreement with the experimental findings. Moreover, the calculations reveal that formation of the hydrosilane adducts proceeds via barrierless electrophilic activation of the hydrosilane by sterically controlled h1 (end-on) or h2 (side-on) coordination of the Si–H bond to the Lewis acidic metal center, followed by heterolytic cleavage of the Received 21st March 2015 Si–H bond through a concerted four-membered transition state.

COVALENT BOND results from the sharing of electrons between the atoms. Usually found between nonmetals. The POLAR COVALENT bond is In-between • the IONIC BOND [ transfer of electrons ] and • the COVALENT BOND [ shared electrons] The pair of electrons in a polar covalent bond are not shared equally . DISCRIPTION OF ELECTRONS 1. How Many Electrons ? 2. Electron Configuration 3. Orbital Diagram 4. Quantum Numbers 5. LEWISLEWIS SYMBOLSSYMBOLS LEWISLEWIS SYMBOLSSYMBOLS 1. Electrons are represented as DOTS 2. Only VALENCE electrons are used Atomic Hydrogen is H • Atomic Lithium is Li • Atomic Sodium is Na • All of Group 1 has only one dot The Octet Rule Atoms gain, lose, or share electrons until they are surrounded by 8 valence electrons (s2 p6 ) All noble gases [EXCEPT HE] have s2 p6 configuration.
