Accurate calculations of standard molar enthalpies of formation (ΔΗf°)m(g) and carbon-halogen bond dissociation enthalpies, BDE, of a variety of halomethanes with relevance on several atmospheric chemical processes and particularly to ozone destruction, were performed in the gas phase at 298.15 K. The (ΔΗf°)m(g) of the radicals formed through bond dissociations have also been computed. Ab initio computational methods and isodesmic reaction schemes were used. It is found that for the large majority of these species, the gold standard method of quantum chemistry (CCSD(T)) and even MP2 are capable to predict enthalpy values nearing chemical accuracy provided that isodesmic reaction schemes are used. New estimates for standard molar enthalpies of formation and BDE are suggested including for species that to our knowledge there are no experimental (ΔΗf°)m(g) (CHCl2Br, CHBr2Cl, CHBrCl, CHICl, CHIBr) or BDE values (CHCl2Br, CHBr2Cl, CHBrCl, CHICl, CHIBr) available in the literature. The method and calculational procedures presented may profitably be used to obtain accurate (ΔΗf°)m(g) and BDE values for these species.

3,6-Dinitro-1,8-naphthyridine and its 2-substituted derivatives are dehydro-methylaminated with the solution of potassium permanganate in liquid methylamine (LMA–PP) to the corresponding mono- or mono- and bis(methylamino)-3,6-dinitro-1,8-naphthyridines. In the case of 2-chloro- and 2-methoxy-3,6-dinitro-1,8-naphthyridine the replacement of chloro and methoxy substituents by the NHCH3 group occurs as well. Quantum-chemical calculations indicate the reactions to be controlled by the interaction of the frontal molecular orbitals (FMO) of the reagents. Moreover the heats of formation of intermediary methylamino-σ-adducts and transition states are calculated for the reaction studied. The calculations show satisfactory agreement between calculated and observed results. A convenient synthesis of some 2-substituted-3,6-dinitro-1,8-naphthyridines is reported.Key words: methylaminations, calculations PM3, nitro-1,8-naphthyridines, oxidation.

The photochemistry of three sulfonylazides was studied by femtosecond time-resolved infrared (TRIR) spectroscopy and quantum chemical computations.


Ab initio molecular-orbital computations with a split-valence 4-31G basis set have been carried out on syn- and antiperiplanar conformers of both HONO and H 3 CONO, and on the transition structures in the unimolecular isomerization process. Calculated values of geometric structural and rotational parameters, dipole moments, wavenumbers of vibrational transitions, energies of vertical electronic transitions to both neutral and ionized excited states, and thermodynamic properties are compared with experimental data; generally good agreement is found. No explanation of the anomalous stability of antiperiplanar HONO has been discovered.
