Pseudopotential Scf-mo Studies of Hypervalent Compounds
نویسنده
چکیده
The (ab initio) effective potential method developed previously has been applied to several molecules in order to establish a basis set and effective potential for iodine and to examine aspects of the potential surfaces of hypervalent compounds of iodine. Implied lone-pair stereochemical activity is found to agree well with experiment. Results for the structures and force constants closely resemble those found in related studies of xenon fluorides which exhibit similar systematic deviations from experiment. Iodinefluorine bond lengths are overestimated by about 0.05 A and stretching force constants are slightly too high. These data provide a consistent basis for investigating further aspects of hypervalent iodine compounds that have so far resisted experimental resolution.

New evidence bearing upon the anomalous properties of xenon hexafluoride has been obtained via the ab initio molecular orbital approach applied successfully to the diand tetrafluorides in paper 1. Structures of both XeFt and XeF6 are governed by a stereochemically active lone pair. In the case of the square-pyramidal cation the F .. -Xe-Feq angle calculated for the bare ion is within 2° of the ...

The effect of monochloro and dichloro substitution into the ethyl portion on the pyrolysis of ethyl vinyl ether has been studied. This involved four possible monosubstituted derivatives and six disubstituted derivatives. For the monochloro derivatives, B- chloro substitution enhanced the rate constant while a- chloro substitution depressed it noticeably. For the dichloro derivatives, substi...

Ab initio calculations at HF/6-31G* level of theory for geometry optimization and MP2/6-31G*//HF/6-31G*for total energy calculation are reported for Z-cyclooctene (1). The most favorable conformation of 1 is theunsymmetric boat-chair (1-BC) geometry. Potential energy profiles for two different boat-chair/boat-chairinterconversion processes were calculated. The process via a chair transition sta...
