Vibrational spectra and ab initio analysis of tert-butyl, trimethylsilyl, and trimethylgermyl derivatives of 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene. VI: Application of observed trends to stannyl derivatives

The effects of substitution of X = C by Si or Ge in X(CH(3))(3) moieties attached to the formal double bond of 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene are examined. Regularities in observed trends of vibrational frequencies implicating the moieties containing the X atom, as the X atomic mass is increased, are extrapolated to X = Sn. The results of this extrapolation made it possible to assign the known experimental vibrational frequencies of 3,3-dimethyl-1-(trimethylstannyl)cyclopropene and 3,3-dimethyl-1,2-bis(trimethylstannyl)cyclopropene.     

Mechanism of abstraction reactions of dimetallenes (R2X=XR2; X = C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) with halocarbons: a theoretical study

Potential energy surfaces for the abstraction reactions of dimetallenes with halocarbons have been studied using density functional theory (B3LYP). Five dimetallene species, (SiH(3))(2)X=X(SiH(3))(2), where X = C, Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb, have been chosen in this work as model reactants. The present theoretical investigations suggest that the relative dimetallenic reactivity increases in the order C=C < Si=Si < Ge=Ge < Sn=Sn < Pb=Pb. That is to say, for halocarbon abstractions there is a very clear trend toward lower activation barriers and more exothermic reactions on going from C to Pb. Moreover, for a given dimetallene, the overall barrier heights are determined to be in the order CF(4) > CCl(4) > CBr(4) > CI(4). That is, the heavier the halogen atom (Y), the more facile its abstraction from CY(4). Halogen abstraction is always predicted to be much faster than the abstraction of a CY(3) group irrespective of the dimetallene or halocarbon involved. Our model conclusions are consistent with some available experimental findings. Furthermore, both a configuration mixing model based on the work of Pross and Shaik and bonding dissociation energies can be used to rationalize the computational results. These results allow a number of predictions to be made.     

[MAl5]+(M=Si,Ge,Sn,Pb)体系结构和稳定性的理论研究

利用B3LYP和CCSD(T)(单点)方法, 研究了含Si, Ge, Sn, Pb的六原子体系[MAl₅]⁺中各个异构体的结构及稳定性. 研究结果表明, 尽管与[CAl₅]⁺一样也具有18个价电子, 但[MAl₅]⁺(M=Si, Ge, Sn, Pb)体系并不存在具有平面五配位结构的异构体, 其能量的全局极小点为具有C_s对称性的蝶形异构体Int1, 这是由于中心原子M(Si, Ge, Sn, Pb)较大的体积显著破坏了[MAl₅]⁺中平面五配位结构的稳定性所致.     

Substitutionsreaktionen der Bis(trimethylelement)carbodiimide des Siliciums und Germaniums mit Metallchloriden und Dimethylmetallchloriden des Sb,Al, Ga und In

Substitution Reactions of Bis(trimethylelement)carbodiimides of Silicon and Germanium with Metal Chlorides and Dimethylmetalchlorides of Sb, Al, Ga, and In The reaction of Me₃Ge? N?C?N? GeMe₃ (Me?CH₃) with SbCl₅ in a 1 : 1 molar ratio forms dimeric Cl₄SbNCNGeMe₃ in high yields. The corresponding compounds (X₂MNCNSiMe₃)_2–3 (with X?Cl, Me and M = Al, Ga), formed by reactions of X₂MCl and Me₃SiNCNSiMe₃, are less stable and tend to condensations, eliminating Me₃SiX. The carbodiimide derivates (Me₂MNCNEMe₃)_2–3 (with E = Si, Ge) are also available in aprotic solvents from polymeric LiNCNEMe₃ and Me₂MCl (M = Al, Ga, In). According to the IR and Raman spectra the low associated substitution products consists of cyclic ring skeletons and asymmetric > N? C?N? EMe₃ units with cyanamide conformation.     

Structural and electronic properties of Al12X+ (X=C, Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb) clusters

Using the first-principles method with the generalized gradient approximation, the authors have studied the structural and electronic properties of Al(12)X(+) (X=C, Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb) clusters in detail. The ground state of Al(12)C(+) is a low symmetry C(s) structure instead of an icosahedron. However, the Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb atom doped cationic clusters favor icosahedral structures. The ground states for Al(12)Si(+) and Al(12)Ge(+) are icosahedra, while the C(5nu) structures optimized from an icosahedron with a vertex capped by a tetravalent atom have the highest binding energy for Al(12)Sn(+) and Al(12)Pb(+) clusters. The I(h) structure and the C(5nu) structure are almost degenerate for Al(12)Ge(+), whose binding energy difference is only 0.03 eV. The electronic properties are altered much by removing an electron from the neutral cluster. The binding strength of a valence electron is enhanced, while the binding energy of the cluster is reduced much. Due to the open electronic shell, the band gaps between the highest occupied molecular orbital and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital are approximately 0.3 eV for the studied cationic clusters.     

杂硼原子簇XB6+ (X=C,Si, Ge,Sn, Pb)的稳定性和芳香性

利用从头算MP2方法和密度泛函理论B3LYP和B3PW91方法, 研究了杂硼原子簇XB₆⁺ (X=C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb)的结构、稳定性及化学键合情况. 对C, Si, Ge, B使用6-311+G(d)基组, 对Sn和Pb使用LANL2DZ赝势基组. 研究结果表明, 具有C_s对称性的假平面XB₆⁺ (X=C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb)结构是势能面上的全域极小点, 其稳定性要高于C_6v对称性的锥形结构和C₂对称性的假锥形结构. 在B3LYP水平上, 对这些异构体的势能面的极小点进行了自然键轨道(NBO)的分析; 对最稳定构型的最高占据分子轨道(HOMO)和最低空轨道(LUMO)能级差、分子轨道(MO)和核独立化学位移(NICS)进行了计算和讨论. 分析了杂原子和硼原子间、相邻硼原子间的键合情况, 讨论了最稳定构型的芳香性质.     

Reactions of cis-2-Boryl-1-stannylalkenes with Carbodiimides, Thiocyanates, Isothiocyanates, and Isocyanates

The reactions of (E)-2-diethylboryl-1-trimethylstannylbut-1-ene and (Z)-3-diethylboryl-2-trimethylstannylpent-2-ene with carbodiimides, methyl thiocyanate, thioisocyanates, and isocyanates were studied, and the products were characterized by multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H, ¹¹B, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR). It was found that carbodiimides bearing tert-butyl or trimethylsilyl groups at the nitrogen atoms do not react with (E)-2-boryl-1-stannylalkenes, in contrast to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. There was also no reaction in the case of MeSCN. All other reactions proceed via a weak NB adduct formation in the initial step, followed by different rearrangements, depending on the structure of reagents as well as on the substitution pattern at the C=C bond in alkenes. New heterocycles are formed, in which the boron atom is either tricoordinated (1,2-azaborolenes, 1,2-azaborolan! es), a nd one ethyl group has been transferred to the neighbor olefinic carbon atom, or the boron atom is tetracoordinated (1,2-azaboratoles, 1,2-oxoniaboratoles), and the trimethylstannyl group has migrated to one of the heteroatoms of the heterocumulenes.     

Ab initio thermochemistry of the hydrogenation of hydrocarbon radicals using silicon-, germanium-, tin-, and lead-substituted methane and isobutane

A series of reactions of the type Y. + XH(4) --> YH + .XH(3) and Y'. + HX(CH(3))(3) --> Y'H + .X(CH(3))(3), where Y = H, CH(3); Y' = CH(3), C(CH(3))(3); and X = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb are studied using state-of-the-art ab initio electronic structure methods. Second-order M?ller-Plesset perturbation theory; the coupled-cluster singles, doubles, and perturbative triples method; and density functional theory are used with correlation-consistent basis sets (cc-pVNZ, where N = D, T, Q) and their pseudopotential analogs (cc-pVNZ-PP) to determine the transition-state geometries, activation barriers, and thermodynamic properties of these reactions. Trends in the barrier heights as a function of the group IVA atom (Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb) are examined. With respect to kinetics and thermodynamics, the use of a hydrogen attached to a group IVA element as a possible hydrogen donation tool in the mechanosynthesis of diamondoids appears feasible.

Der Übergang vom „geordneten”︁ Anti-PbCl2-Gitter zum Anti-PbFCl-Gitter: Ternäre Phasen ABX der Erdalkalimetalle mit Elementen der 4. Hauptgruppe (A = Ca,Sr, Ba; B = Mg; X = Si,Ge, Sn,Pb)

The transition of the “ordered” anti-PbCl₂ lattice in the anti-PbFCl lattice: The ternary phases ABX of the alkaline earths with main group IV elements (A = Ca, Sr, Ba; B = Mg; X = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) The compounds CaMgX, SrMgX and BaMgX (X = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) were synthesized and their structures determined. CaMgX and SrMgX crystallize in the “ordered” Anti-PbCl₂-type and are therefore related to the binary compounds Ca₂X(X = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb), which form the Anti-PbCl₂-type too. The phases BaMgX build up the Anti-PbFCl-structure. The relations of these two different structures are discussed in respect to the radii of the components.

19F NMR studies of the comparative electronegativity of the Ph3E groups (E=C, Si, Ge, Sn, or Pb) in Ph3E derivatives of tris(4-fluorophenyl)stannanethiol

Compounds (4-FC₆H₄)₃SnSEPh₃ (E=C, Si, Ge, Sn, or Pb) were synthesized or generated in solution. The data on the comparative electronegativity of the Ph₃E groups were obtained from the results of¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy. It was established that, except for E=C, the electronegativity changes in parallel with the absolute electronegativity of the central atom. Possible reasons for the deviation observed are discussed.

The isotypic Na₄XO₄ (X = Si, Ti, Cr, Mn, Co, Ge, Sn, Pb) and K₄XO₄ (X = Ti, Cr, Mn, Ge, Zr, Sn, Hf, Pb) phases crystallize in the triclinic system. Optical and magnetic properties of the chromium, manganese, and cobalt compounds show that the transition element has a tetrahedral surrounding.     

Central‐Atom Size Effects on the Methyl Torsions of Group XIV Tetratolyls

The Group XIV tetratolyl series X(C₆H₄‐CH₃)₄ (X=C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) were studied by using inelastic neutron scattering to measure the low‐energy phonon spectra to directly access the methyl‐group torsional modes. The effect of increased molecular radius as a function of the size of the central atom was shown to have direct influence on the methyl dynamics, reinforced with the findings of molecular dynamics and contact surface calculations, based upon the solid‐state structures. The torsional modes in the lightest analogue were found to be predominantly intramolecular: the Si and Ge analogues have a high degree of intermolecular methyl–methyl group interactions, whilst the heaviest analogues (Sn and Pb) showed pronounced intermolecular methyl interactions with the whole phonon bath of the lattice modes.     

Self‐Assembly of N‐Heterocyclic Derivatives of Divalent Germanium,Tin, and Lead

A new class of exceptionally stable asymmetric N‐heterocyclic germylenes, stannylenes, and plumbylenes has been successfully isolated and characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. Their stability results from tetrameric supramolecular aggregation through strong intermolecular N_py→E^II (E=Ge, Sn, Pb) interactions involving the nitrogen atom of a neighboring pyridine moiety. The electronic structures and stabilities of the prepared divalent derivatives of Ge, Sn, and Pb in monomeric and aggregated forms are discussed based on theoretical investigations.
