This study analyzes the aromatic nature of cyanuric acid (hexahydrotriazine) and some of its derivatives, in terms of aromatic stabilization energy (ASE) and electronic behavior. The simplest molecule (C(3)N(3)O(3)H(3)) is the most aromatic item out of the entire set, but some of the others also display aromatic character. The structure of all the rings is analyzed considering their molecular o...

The unusual aromatic stability of cyclic bicalicene has been suggested to come from a tetraionic structure, where positive and negative charges are located on the cyclopropene and cyclopentadiene rings, respectively. Energetic, magnetic, geometric and electron delocalization analysis performed on a series of bicalicene derivatives, incorporating different electron donating and withdrawing group...

tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyran derivatives 1 were utilized for the synthesis of several new pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives 2. compound 2 was obtained in the presence of ac2o/h2so4 (as a catalyst) and was confirmed by spectroscopic data such as ir, 1h nmr and 13c nmr. ab initio calculation was carried out to study geometric optimization, thermodynamic parameters, aromaticity and dynamic process of...

The effects of atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition on organic matter decomposition vary with the biochemical characteristics of plant litter. At the ecosystem-scale, net effects are difficult to predict because various soil organic matter (SOM) fractions may respond differentially. We investigated the relationship between SOM chemistry and microbial activity in three northern deciduous forest e...

Geometric (HOMA) and magnetic (NICS) indices of aromaticity were estimated for aromatic rings of amino acids and nucleobases. Cartesian coordinates were taken directly either from PDB files deposited in public databases at the finest resolution available (≤ 1.5 Å), or from structures resulting from full gradient geometry optimization in a hybrid QM/MM approach. Significant environmental effects...
