In addition the rotation around the CC bond in the optimum conformation is studied. The absolute minimum in the potential energy is found for the asymmetric structure but the symmetric structure is also found to be stable with respect to the dissociation, so that a shuttling of the fluorine atom is in principle possible but highly unlikely because ( l) the activation energy is high ( II 5-130 kJ fmol) and the saddle point lies only 4(}-50 kJ jmol below the dissociation Iimit of F + C\(_2\)H\(_4\) and (2) the competitive motion, i.e., rotation around the CC axis, is nearly free (I 1-17 kJ/mol).

In series I, increasing numbers of d functions were added to a 5s4p contracted Huzinaga!Dunning basis.

T1 - Study of the 1s and 2s shell contributions to the isotropic hyperfine coupling constant in nitrogen N2 - The istropic part of the hyperfine coupling constant is investigated by means of multireference configuration interaction calculations employing Gaussian basis sets. A detailed study of the 1s and 2s spin polarisation in the nitrogen atom and the NH molecule shows that the structure of the lower-energy space of the unoccupied orbitals is essential for the results. A contraction of the Gaussian basis is possible without loss of accuracy if enough flexibility is retained to describe the main features of the original space of unoccupied functions. Higher than double excitations are found to be non-negligible for the description of α\(_{iso}\).

A detailed analysis of the charge density at the nucleus and the spin polarization in the ls and 2s shell as a function of various technical parameters is undertaken. Various (s, p) AO basis sets and the inftuence of correlation orbitals is investigated as weil as selection threshold and other properlies in CI calculations.

T1 - Theoretical study of the bridging in β-Halo Ethyl N2 - Large-acale multi-reference configuration interaction (MRD-CI) calculations in a quite flexible AO basis are employed to study the energy hypersurface for the reaction intermediates XC\(_3\)H\(_4\) with X = Cl, Br and F. Particular emphasis is therby placed on determining the equilibrium conformations, the CH\(_2\) rotation barrier and the energy surface for a possible bridging (shuttling motion (1a] of X between the two carbon centers). The absolute minimum in the potential energy surface is found in all three cases for the asymmetric ß-halo radical in general agreement with ESR data at an XCC angle of ca. 110°, a c-c separation somewhat shorter than a single bond and an approximate sp3 type hybridization (\(\alpha _2 \approx \) 135-140°). In FC\(_2\)H\(_4\) the energy difference between the minimum in the symmetric conformation and the absolute minimum is found to be more than 30 kcal so that shuttling seems impossible in agreement with experimental findings. In BrC\(_2\)H\(_4\) the difference between these two potential minima is only between 1-2 kcal, i.e., smaller than the barrier to CH\(_2\), rotation, so that· shuttling is favored, while ClC\(_2\)H\(_4\) takes an intermediate position between these extremes. The use of correlated wavefunctions is found to be quite important for such a study; the results are related to various kinetic studies of these radicals.

Leaving Group Effects for Solvolyses and Comments on Geminal Electronic Effects Influencing S\(_N\)1 Reactivity N2 - Highly reactive methanesulfonates (mesylates, ROMs) have been prepared from 1-phenylethanol. cyclohex-2-en-1-ol, diphenylmethanol and p-methoxybenzyl alcohol by treatment with methanesulfonyl chloride and triethylamine in dichloro- or trichloro-methane at - 20 to 0 °C. The mesylates. characterised in solution by \(^1\)H and \(^{13}\)C NMR at -20 °C, were obtained in satisfactory purity (ca. 95%) in cold solutions but they decomposed by reaction with chloride, triethylamine or the parent alcohol. Rate constants for solvolyses in aqueous acetone and aqueous ethanol have been determined by a fast response conductimetric method. Product selectivities for solvolyses of pmethoxybenzyl mesylate in aqueous ethanol and methanol at 0 °C have been determined by HPLC. From additional new or Iiterature kinetic data for solvolyses of corresponding bromides. chlorides and p-nitrobenzoates (OPNB). Br/CI. OMs/Br and OMs/OPNB rate ratios were calculated; the results are consistent with electronic effects stabilising the carbocationic transition states and increasing OMs/Br rate ratios for these SN 1 solvolyses; none of the evidence supports a geminal electronic effect on Br/CI rate ratios (e.g. caused by stabilisation of the initial state in pmethoxybenzyl chloride). Steric effects on ester /halide rate ratios for solvolyses of tertiary substrates are confirmed. Relative rates over a 10\(^{16}\) range for ester and halide leaving groups are evaluated for solvolyses of 1-phenylethyl substrates in 80% ethanol-water. updating previous work by Noyce et al.
