Complete Geometry Optimization

MINDO-Forces calculations with complete geometry optimization have been performed on acetaldehyde, vinyl alcohol and acetyl derivatives CH3COX(X=H, F, OH, CN, NH2, NO2 , CH3 , CF3,OCH3). It was found that acetaldehyde is more stable than vinyl alcohol by 10.451 kcal/mol. Thermodynamically, keto tautomers are more stable than their enol counterparts. This agrees with theoretical calculations. The electron releasing substituents tend to stabilize keto tautomers, while the electron withdrawing substituents tend to destabilize the keto tautomers, relative to the parent. Geometrical parameters, heats of formation, electron densities, Gibbs free energies and orbital energies (HOMO-LUMO) are reported.

Thermodynamically, substituted aci-nitro tautomers are more stable than the corresponding nitromethane, except in case of the substituent F. Geometrical parameters, heats of formation, electron densities, Gibbs free energies and isodesmic reactions are reported.

Complete Optimization

MINDO-Forces calculations have been performed with complete optimization of the geometries on stepwise fluorinated cyclopropanones and their enols. Increase in the number of fluorine atoms causes destabilization of cyclopropanone. Perfluorinated enol was found to be present in substantial concentration, as was mentioned in previous work. This is supported by calculations of Gibbs free energies and isodesmic reactions. Geometrical parameters, heats of formation, electron densities, dipole moments and orbital energies (HOMO-LUMO) are reported.

MINDO-Forces calculations with complete geometry optimization have been performed on α- substituted acetaldehydes XCH2CH=O and their enols (X = H, F, OH, CN, NH2, NO2, CH3, CF3, OCH3). All substituents were found to decrease the stability of the acetaldehyde and mostly in the case of electron withdrawing capacity (e. g NO2 and CF3). This agrees with theoretical calculations, except in the case of F. The substituent effects on the stabilities in this study are compared with results obtained from our previous theoretical calculations on acetyl derivatives. Geometrical parameters, electron densities, and Gibbs free energies are reported.

MINDO-Forces calculations with complete geometry optimization have been performed on cyclopentanone and its enol counter part, perfluorination of cyclop entanone and its enol counterpart and X-cyclopentanones and their X-enols, where X is NO2, CF3, CN, OH, NH2 and O−. It was found that ketone is more stable than its enol counterpart. Perfluorination destabilizes ketone on the expense of enol. These results agree with the experimental results and density functional theory calculations. All substituents are destabilizing except O− in the case of cyclopentanone. It was found that NO2 and CF3 behave as strong electron withdrawing groups, CN and NC show amphielectronic behavior, and the substituents OH,NH2 and O− behave as electron releasing groups with O− being strongest. Geometrical parameters, heats of formation, entropies, and Gibbs free energies are reported

The favored conformation of substituted chalcone 3 was predicted theoretically by geometry optimization structure selected geometrical parameters and molecular properties such as NBO, AIM, HOMO-LUMO, MEP surface, and atomic charges were derived from optimized structures. The 1H and 13C NMR spectral data had been additionally computed using the Gaussian-09 package and compared with the experimental values. The antibacterial and antifungal activity was derived by the disc diffusion method.

MINDO-Forces calculations have been performed with complete optimization of the geometry on cyclobutanone and its enol counterpart, perfluorination of cyclobutanones and enol counterparts, and X-cycolobutanones and their X-enols, where X is NO2, CF3, CN, OH, NH2 and F. It was found that ketone is more stable than its enol counterpart. Perfluorination destabilizes ketone on the expense of enol. These results agree with experimental and theoretical calculations. Electron releasing substituents (NH2, OH, F) stabilize cyclobutanone, while electron withdrawing substituents (CF3, NO2) destabilize it. CN substituents have almost no effect on the stabilization of this keto-enol system. Geometrical parameters, heats of formation, electron densities and Gibbs free energy are reported

The paper deals with the solvation of Li+, Be2+, Na+, Mg2+, and Al3+ ions in dimethyl sulphoxide, dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, and water. The ab initio quantum chemical method was used to calculate the solvation energies, molecular structures, and charge distributions for the complexes water···ion, acetonitrile···ion, dimethyl sulphoxide···ion, and dimethylformamide···ion. The interaction energies were corrected for the superposition error. Complete geometry optimization was performed for the complex water···ion. Some generalizations are made on the basis of the results obtained.

AbstractThis communication gives an overview of the relationships between four reactions that although related were not always perceived as such: SN2, Walden, Finkelstein, and Menshutkin. Binary interactions (SN2 & Walden, SN2 & Menshutkin, SN2 & Finkelstein, Walden & Menshutkin, Walden & Finkelstein, Menshutkin & Finkelstein) were reported. Carbon, silicon, nitrogen, and phosphorus as central atoms and fluorides, chlorides, bromides, and iodides as lateral atoms were considered. Theoretical calculations provide Gibbs free energies that were analyzed with linear models to obtain the halide contributions. The M06-2x DFT computational method and the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set have been used for all atoms except for iodine where the effective core potential def2-TZVP basis set was used. Concerning the central atom pairs, carbon/silicon vs. nitrogen/phosphorus, we reported here for the first time that the effect of valence expansion was known for Si but not for P. Concerning the lateral halogen atoms, some empirical models including the interaction between F and I as entering and leaving groups explain the Gibbs free energies.
