Desulfinylation of Prop-2-enesulfinic Acid: Experimental Results and Mechanistic Theoretical Analysis
The potential energy surfaces of the desulfinylation of prop-2-enesulfinic acid (13) in CH2Cl2 solution at -15 degrees C have been explored by quantum calculations and analyzed with kinetic data obtained for the reaction in absence or presence of additives ...
2009Recent Synthetic Approaches Toward Non-anomeric Spiroketals in Natural Products
Pierre Vogel, Sandrine Gerber, Sylvain Favre
Many natural products of biological interest contain [6,5]- and [6,6]-spiroketal moieties that can adopt various configurations, benefiting or not from anomeric conformation stabilizing effects. The spiroketal fragments are often important for the biologic ...
2008Quantum calculations on the acid catalyzed rearrangements of norborn-5-en-2-one, 7-oxanorborn-5-en-2-one and 7-azanorborn-5-en-2-one - The electron-releasing effect of homoconjugated carbonyl group
Protonation of norbom-5-en-2-one gives 6-oxo-2-norbomyl cation (2) as most stable C7H9O+ cation. Quantum calculations at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level (gas phase, 1 atm, 25 degrees C) predict a C-s-structure for 2 that can be represented as an intramolecular pi-com ...
2008Ring opening at N1-C2 bond of azetidin-2-ones by a molybdenum hydroxo-carbonyl complex: evidence from a computational study
Computations on the reaction of azetidin-2-one, N-sulfonate azetidin-2-one, and 3-formylamine-N-sulfonate azetidin-2-one with [Mo(OH)(eta(3)-C3H5)(CO) 2(N2C2H4)] were performed at the B3LYP/6-31 + G(d,p) (LANL2DZ for Mo augmented by f polarization function ...
2008Quantum Chemical Study of Adsorption and Dissociation of H2S on the gallium-rich GaAs (001)-4x2 surface
H2S adsorption and dissociation on the gallium-rich GaAs( 001)- 4 x 2 surface is investigated using hybrid density functional theory. Starting from chemisorbed H2S on the GaAs( 001)- 4 x 2 surface, two possible reaction routes have been proposed. We find t ...
American Chemical Society2006Evidence for d Orbital Aromaticity in Square Planar Coinage Metal Clusters
Quant. evidence for the existence of aromaticity involving the d orbitals of transition metals is provided for the first time. The doubly bridged square planar (D4h) coinage metal clusters (M4Li2, M = Cu (1), Ag (2), and Au (3)) are characterized as arom. ...
