Theoretical study on structures and stability of HC2P isomers

 The structures and isomerization pathways of various HC₂P isomers in both singlet and triplet states are investigated at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p), QCISD/6-311G(d,p) (for isomers only) and single-point CCSD(T)/6-311G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) levels. At the CCSD(T)/6-311G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level, the lowest-lying isomer is a linear HCCP structure ³ 1 in the ³∑⁻ state. The second low-lying isomer has a CPC ring with exocyclic CH bonding ¹ 5 in a singlet state at 10.5 kcal/mol. The following third and fourth low-lying isomers are a singlet bent HCCP structure ¹ 1 at 20.9 kcal/mol and a bent singlet HPCC structure ¹ 3 at 35.8 kcal/mol, respectively. Investigation of the HC₂P potential-energy surface indicates that in addition to the experimentally known isomer ³ 1, the other isomers ¹ 1, ¹ 3 and ¹ 5 also have considerable kinetic stability and may thus be observable. However, the singlet and triplet bent isomers HCPC ¹ 2 and ³ 2 as well as the triplet bent isomer HPCC ³ 3 are not only high-lying but are also kinetically unstable, in sharp contrast to the situation of the analogous HCNC and HNCC species that are both kinetically stable and that have been observed experimentally. Furthermore, the reactivity of various HC₂P isomers towards oxygen atoms is briefly discussed. The results presented here may be useful for future identification of the completely unknown yet kinetically stable HC₂P isomers ¹ 1, ¹ 3 and ¹ 5 either in the laboratory or in interstellar space.

Theoretical study on structures and stability of SiCP2 isomers

The structures, energetics, spectral parameters and stability of the singlet SiCP₂ isomers are explored at the density functional theory and ab initio levels. Eight isomers connected by ten interconversion transition states are located at the CCSD(T)/6-311G(2d)//B3LYP/6-311G(d)level. The kinetically stable isomers and their relevant interconversion transition states are further refined at CCSD(T)/6-311+G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(d) level. At QCISD/6-311G(d) level, one four-membered ring isomer cSiPCP and two linear structures PSiCP, SiCPP possess considerable kinetic stability (more than 15 kcal/mol). The valence bond structures of three kinetically stable SiCP₂ isomers are analyzed. The similarities and discrepancies in structure, energy and stability between SiCP₂ and its analogous C₂P₂, Si₂P₂, SiCN₂ and CSiNP molecules are also discussed. The predicted structures and spectroscopic properties are expected to be informative for the identification of the SiCP₂ in the laboratory and space.     

Theoretical study on structures and stability of C4P isomers

The structures, energetics, spectroscopies, and stabilities of doublet C(4)P isomeric species are explored at the DFT/B3LYP, QCISD, and CCSD(T) (singlet-point) levels. A total of 12 minimum isomers and 27 interconversion transition states are located. At the CCSD(T)/6-311G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(d)+ZPVE level, the lowest-lying isomer is a floppy CCCCP 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) mainly featuring a cumulenic structure |C=C=C=C=P*|, which differs much from the analogous C4N radical (|*C-C[triple bond]C-C[triple bond]N|). The quasi-linearity and the low bending mode of 1 are in contrast to the previous prediction. The second energetically followed isomer PC-cCCC 3 (14.9 kcal/mol) possesses a CCC ring-bonded to CP. The two low-lying isomers are separated by a high-energy ring-closure/open transition state (26.5 kcal/mol) and thus are very promising candidates for future laboratory and astrophysical detection. Furthermore, four high-energy isomers, that is, two bent isomers CCPCC 2 (68.4 kcal/mol) and CCPCC 2' (68.5 kcal/mol) and two cagelike species 10 (56.0 kcal/mol) and 11 (67.9 kcal/mol), are also stabilized by considerable barriers. The present work is the first detailed potential energy survey of CnP clusters and can provide useful information for the investigation of larger CnP radicals and for understanding the isomerism of P-doped C vaporization processes.     

Theoretical study on the structures, isomerization and stability of SiC4 isomers

The structures, energetics, dipole moments, vibrational spectra, rotational constants, and isomerization of singlet SiC₄ isomers were explored using ab initio methods. Five types of isomers, a total of 11 minima, connected by 11 interconversion transition states, were located on the potential energy surface at the MP2/6-311G(d, p) level. More accurate energies were obtained at the G3(MP2) level. With the highest isomerization barrier, a C2v tetra-angular cone possesses the largest kinetic stability. The lowest-lying structure, linear SiCCCC is also highly kinetically stabilized. Besides, D2d bicyclic c-Si(CC)₂, C2v five-membered ring c-SiCCCC, another C2v tetra-angular cone isomer and C3v trigonal bipyramid isomer are also considered to be kinetically stable, because their isomerization barriers are all over 10 kcal/mol. Other isomers cannot be kinetically stabilized with considerably low isomerization barriers. Investigation on the vibrational spectra, dipole moments, and rotational constants for SiC₄ isomers are valuable for their detections in the interstellar space and laboratory.     

Theoretical study on stability and properties of NC2O isomers

The structures, energetics, spectroscopies, and stabilities of the doublet NC(2)O radical are explored at density functional theory and ab initio levels. Nine minimum isomers are located connected by 22 interconversion transition states. At the CCSD(T)/6-311+G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(d)+ZPVE level, the lowest-lying isomer is bent NCCO 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) with (2)A' state followed by bent isomer CNCO 2 (16.7). Two isomers (1 and 2) and another high-lying species CCNO 4 (99.4) with bent structure are considerably stabilized by a barrier of at least 20 kcal/mol. All of the three isomers should be experimentally or astrophysically observable. This result is consistent with their indication of neutralization-reionization mass spectrometry experiments. Also, the calculated spectroscopic properties and bond distances of known NCCO 1 are consistent with recent experimental observations and theoretical studies. The bonding natures of the isomers 1, 2, and 4 are analyzed. Their molecular properties including the heats of formation, adiabatic ionization potentials, and adiabatic electronic affinities are calculated at the higher levels G3//B3LYP, G3(MP2)//B3LYP, QCISD, and CCSD(T) (single-point). Possible formation strategies of the isomers 1, 2, and 4 in laboratory and space are also discussed in detail.     

Theoretical study on the structures, isomerization and stability of SiC3H isomers

The calculations of the geometry optimizations, energies, dipole moments, vibrational spectra, rotational constants, and isomerization of doublet SiC₃H species were performed using density functional theory and ab initio methods. Four types of isomers, a total of 18 minima, connected by 16 interconversion transition states, were located on the potential energy surface (PES) at the B3LYP/6-311G (d, p) level. More accurate energies were obtained at the CCSD(T)/6-311G(2df, 2p), and G3(MP2) levels. With the highest isomerization barrier, the lowest lying structure, linear A1 possesses the largest kinetic stability. Besides, the isomerization barriers of A2, A4, C2, F1, F4 and F5 are over 10 kcal/mol, and these isomers are also considered to be higher kinetically stable. Other isomers cannot be kinetically stabilized with considerably low isomerization barriers. Investigation on the bonding properties and the computations of vibrational spectra, dipole moments, and rotational constants for SiC₃H isomers are helpful for understanding their structures and also valuable for their detections in the interstellar space and laboratory.

Theoretical study on structures and stability of triplet SiC<Subscript>3</Subscript>O isomers

Various levels of calculations are carried out~for exploring the potential energy surface (PES) of triplet SiC₃O, a molecule of potential interest in interstellar chemistry. A total of 38 isomers are located on the PES including chain-like, cyclic and cage-like structures, which are connected by 87 interconversion transition states at the DFT/B3LYP/6-311G(d) level. The structures of the most relevant isomers and transition states are further optimized at the QCISD/6-311G(d) level followed by CCSD(T)/6-311+G(2df) single-point energy calculations. At the QCISD level, the lowest lying isomer is a linear SiCCCO 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) with the ³ ∑ electronic state, which possesses great kinetic stability of 59.5 kcal/mol and predominant resonant structure . In addition, the bent isomers CSiCCO 2 (68.3 kcal/mol) and OSiCCC 5 (60.1 kcal/mol) with considerable kinetic stability are also predicted to be candidates for future experimental and astrophysical detection. The bond natures and possible formation pathways in interstellar space of the three stable isomers are discussed. The predicted structures and spectroscopic properties for the relevant isomers are expected to be informative for the identification of SiC₃O and even larger SiC _n O species in laboratory and interstellar medium.

Theoretical study on the structures and aromaticity of N‐confused porphyrazine isomers

The energy and nucleus‐independent chemical shift (NICS) of 95 isomers of N‐confused porphyrazine (NCPz), including normal porphyrazine (N₀CPz), N‐confused porphyrazine (N₁CPz), doubly N‐confused porphyrazine (N₂CPz), triply N‐confused porphyrazine (N₃CPz), and fully N‐confused porphyrazine (N₄CPz), have been calculated by the density‐functional theory (DFT) method. The stability of NCPz decreased by increasing the number of confused pyrrole rings and the macrocycle tend to be destabilized stepwise by approximately +21 kcal/mol. The relative energies of the most stable isomers in confusion level are 0 kcal/mol (N₀CPz‐1), +23.481 (N₁CPz‐5), +41.849 (N₂CPz‐a4), +61.738 (N₃CPz‐b3), and +84.596 (N₄CPz‐b13), respectively. The most stable isomers of N₂CPz, N₃CPz, and N₄CPz are not necessarily the most aromatic but rather nonaromatic, especially in the case of N₃CPz and N₄CPz. On the other hand, the magnitude of the aromaticity estimated by NICS for these isomers does not differ largely. The NICS values of the most aromatic isomers are ?15.5411 (N₀CPz‐1), ?14.0458 (N₁CPz‐2), ?12.8171 (N₂CPz‐d1), ?11.5961 (N₃CPz‐b6), and ?12.8012 ppm (N₄CPz‐a6), respectively. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

C3H4: Theoretical study of structures and stabilities of isomers

The various isomers including stable structures, carbenes, and diradicals on the C₃H₄ surface have been investigated. The two carbenes propenylidene and cyclopropylidene have been found to have singlet ground states. Vinylmethylene is predicted to have a triplet ground state with a planar diradical type of structure. The syn and anti forms of this state are degenerate. This is in agreement with the observation of two triplet states in the electron spin resonance (ESR ) spectra. The π electrons are found to be delocalized over the three carbons. The singlet diradical structures are found to be more stable than the carbene structures, which retain the CH₂ (DOUBLE BOND) CH allylic structures. The orbital compositions of the frontier orbitals of all systems have been determined to examine the nature of these orbitals. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Theoretical investigation on stability and isomerizations of CH3SO isomers

The stability and isomerizations of CH3SO isomers have been investigated at B3LYP/6-311G(d,p), MP2/6-311G(d,p), QCISD/6-311G(d,p), and CCSD(T)/6-311G(d,p) levels. Geometries of isomers and transition states (TS) have been optimized at the B3LYP/6-311G(d, p) level. Vibration analysis and the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) calculated at the same level have been applied to validate the connection of the stationary points. The four different methods give similar results: 11 isomers and 9 isomerization channels were found. CH3SO and CH2(S)OH are the most stable species among the 11 isomers. Furthermore, the breakage and formation of the chemical bonds in isomerization reactions have been discussed by the topological analysis method of electronic density. The "energy transition state (ETS)" and the "structure transition state (STS)" of all the isomerizations have been found. The topological analysis shows that the relative positions of ETS and STS are determined by reaction energy. The nonplanar four-member ring structure transition state (STS), which was first found in this paper, extended the concept of ring STS.

Bonding in the Si2H2 isomers: A topographical study

Chemical bonding in the isomers of the formally triply bonded Si₂H₂ system are studied from the point of view of electron localization function (ELF) bond basin populations and atoms‐inmolecules (AIM) delocalization indices. Calculation carried out at the B3LYP/6‐31 + G(d,p) and MP2 (FC)/6‐31 + G(d,p) level leads to ELF topographies and basin populations that are in good agreement with our intuitive chemical pictures of bonding in these molecules. One single, two double, and one triple silicon silicon bonds are found in the four isomers. It is shown that, with one AIM exception, ratios of basin populations and delocalization indices are consistent and useful in characterizing the nature of the chemical bonding involved. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Crystal structures and electronic properties of BaC_2 isomers by theoretical study based on DFT

Band structures and electronic properties of two BaC2 isomers were calculated by using density func-tional theory(DFT) properly.The ionic bond features are all typical between cation(Ba) and anion clusters(C2) in both structures of the isomers.However,a much stronger covalent bond exists in anion clusters which can be seen by inspecting the electron distribution contour that has a dull bell like shape between two carbon atoms.The shortest distance between Ba2 and C22? and the bond length in anion clusters are different in these isomers of BaC2,which are 0.2945 nm and 0.1185 nm for the structure with the I4/mmm space group and 0.2744 and 0.1136 nm with the C2/c type,respectively.Band structures were clarified by combining the DOS to indicate the ionic bonding features more clearly.Population analysis provided further evidence on these ideas.Thermodynamical calculation results reveal that the transition temperature of these two polymorphs of BaC2 locates near 132 K,which is consistent with the recent experimental results.     

Theoretical study on the thermodynamic properties and self-decomposition of methylbenzenediol isomers

Alkylated hydroxylated aromatics are major constituents of various types of fuels, including biomass and low-rank coal. In this study, thermochemical parameters are obtained for the various isomeric forms of methylbenzenediol isomers in terms of their enthalpies of formation, entropies, and heat capacities. Isodesmic work reactions are used in quantum chemical computations of the reaction enthalpies for O-H and H?C-H bond fissions and the formation of phenoxy- and benzyl-type radicals. A reaction potential energy on the singlet-state surface surface is mapped out for the unimolecular decomposition of the 3-methylbenzene-1,2-diol isomer. According to the calculated high pressure-limit reaction rate constants, concerted hydrogen molecule elimination from the methyl group and the hydroxyl group, in addition to intermolecular H migration from the hydroxyl group, dominates the unimolecular decomposition at low to intermediate temperatures (T ≤ 1200 K). At higher temperatures, O-H bond fission and concerted water elimination are expected to become the sole decomposition pathways.
