A configurational assignment of the isomeric methylglyoxal bisdimethylhydrazones derived from the 2-ethoxypropenal precursor has been performed based on experimental measurements and high-level ab initio calculations of 1J(C,C) and 1J(C,H) couplings. The results reveal the marked stereochemical dependence upon the orientation of the lone pairs of both nitrogen atoms in different isomers. Methylglyoxal bisdimethylhydrazone is shown to exist in a mixture of the EE and ZE isomers (ca. 75:25), both of which adopt predominant s-trans conformations with minor (up to 8°) out-of-plane deviations.

AbstractIn this work we present the results of high level ab initio calculations on weakly bound complexes of aluminium trichloride and hydrogen halides, HX, halogens, X2 and diatomic interhalogens, XY (where X, Y = F, Cl, Br). Based upon these calculations we have predicted that all structures in the staggered conformation (except for Cl3AlFH and Cl3AlClH) are stable minima while those in the eclipsed configurations are transition state structures. In the XH complexes the strength of interaction with the Cl3Al group is FH > ClH > BrH. In the case of X2 species it is Br2 > F2 > Cl2, and finally in the XY (YX) group it is: FBr > ClBr > FCl > BrCl > BrF > ClF.

Stereochemical study of five 2-substituted N-vinylpyrroles obtained via the Trofimov reaction was carried out based on the experimental measurements of their 13C–1H and 13C–13C spin–spin coupling constants substantiated by the high-level ab initio calculations of the parent 2-methyl-N-vinylpyrrole. The title compounds were shown to adopt a predominantly skewed s-trans conformer with a noticeable population (approximately 10%) of the higher-energy skewed s-cis conformation, however, with the exception of 2-tert-butyl-N-vinylpyrrole adopting almost entirely a skewed s-trans conformation.

Based upon the geometrical properties of regular polyhedrons, the possibility of the existence of certain polyhedral molecules composed of only one element is investigated. A very promising candidate - the regular dodecahedron - is selected as the convenient polyhedral structural pattern and phosphorus as the appropriate element. A series of high-level ab initio calculations is performed on the dodecahedral P20 molecule, including predictions of its thermodynamic and kinetic stability, natural bond orbital analysis, vibrational analysis, and inclusion of some elements into the molecular skeleton. Due to the potential stabilizing agents that may eventually form stable inclusion compounds and the estimated high kinetic stability, the question of the possible existence of P20 is answered in the positive.Key words: ab initio calculations, inclusion compounds, P20, phosphorus clusters, polyhedra.
