Transformations of Methyl 2‐[(E)‐2‐(Dimethylamino)‐1‐(methoxycarbonyl)ethenyl]‐1‐methyl‐1H‐indole‐3‐carboxylate

A simple and efficient synthesis of novel 2‐heteroaryl‐substituted 1H‐indole‐2‐carboxylates and γ‐carbolines, compounds 1 – 3 , from methyl 2‐(2‐methoxy‐2‐oxoethyl)‐1‐methyl‐1H‐indole‐3‐carboxylate ( 4 ) by the enaminone methodology is presented.     

Calculation of bond dissociation energies for oxygen containing molecules by ab initio and density functional theory methods

Two ab initio (ROHF and MP2), one local (SVWN), four hybrid (BHandH, BHandHLYP, Becke3LYP, and Becke3P86), and two nonlocal (BLYP and BP86) density functional theory (DFT) methods are used for calculating the dissociation energies of molecules that contain H(SINGLE BOND)O, O(SINGLE BOND)O and O(SINGLE BOND)C bonds. The sensitivity to the basis set of the prediction of bond dissociation energies with DFT methods was tested with Becke3LYP on the H(SINGLE BOND)O dissociation energy of water. The 6–31 + G(d) methods are chosen as the smallest basis set which produces reasonable results. The calculated values for all other ab initio and DFT methods were performed with these basis sets and then compared with the experimental data. The suitability of DFT methods for computing reliable bond dissociation energies of oxygen containing molecules is discussed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

New syntheses of platinum (IV) and platinum (VI) fluorides

γ-Ray and peroxide-initiated additions of dimethylether to F-cyclobutene, F-cyclopentene, and F-cyclohexene give mixtures of $\text{cis-}$ and $\text{trans-}$ adducts in each case, with a clear preference for $\text{trans}$-addition with F-cyclobutene. Selective bromination of the adducts occurs but the position of chlorination depends dramatically on solvent. Fluorination with cobalt trifluoride is very efficient.     

Reactions of methyl 2‐(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino‐3‐dimethylaminopropenoate and related compounds with hydrazines. Regiospecific synthesis of 1‐substituted‐4‐amino‐substituted‐1H‐pyrazol‐5‐(2H)‐ones

In this paper the regiospecific transformations of methyl 2‐(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino‐3‐dimethylaminopropenoate ( 1 ) with hydrazine, alkyl‐, aryl‐ and heteroaryl‐substituted hydrazines via the corresponding hydrazones 12‐16 into pyrazoles 17‐25 are described. Heteroaryl‐substitued hydrazones 13‐16 afforded by oxidation with bromine or lead tetraacetate the corresponding substituted (1,2,4‐triazolo[4,3‐b]pyridazin‐3‐yl)glycinates 27‐30 . Alkyl 2‐(2,2‐disubstituted‐1‐ethenyl)amino‐3‐dimethylaminopropenoates 31‐33 gave with hydrazines alkyl 2‐[2,2‐(disubstituted)ethenyl]amino‐3‐heteroarylhydrazonopropanoates 40‐48 and 2‐alkyl 2,3‐bis((hetero)arylhydrazono)propanoates 51‐55 .     

W4 theory for computational thermochemistry: In pursuit of confident sub-kJ/mol predictions

In an attempt to improve on our earlier W3 theory [A. D. Boese et al., J. Chem. Phys. 120, 4129 (2004)] we consider such refinements as more accurate estimates for the contribution of connected quadruple excitations (T4), inclusion of connected quintuple excitations (T5), diagonal Born-Oppenheimer corrections (DBOC), and improved basis set extrapolation procedures. Revised experimental data for validation purposes were obtained from the latest version of the Active Thermochemical Tables thermochemical network. The recent CCSDT(Q) method offers a cost-effective way of estimating T4, but is insufficient by itself if the molecule exhibits some nondynamical correlation. The latter considerably slows down basis set convergence for T4, and anomalous basis set convergence in highly polar systems makes two-point extrapolation procedures unusable. However, we found that the CCSDTQ-CCSDT(Q) difference converges quite rapidly with the basis set, and that the formula 1.10[CCSDT(Q)cc-pVTZ+CCSDTQcc-pVDZ-CCSDT(Q)cc-pVDZ] offers a very reliable as well as fairly cost-effective estimate of the basis set limit T4 contribution. The T5 contribution converges very rapidly with the basis set, and even a simple double-zeta basis set appears to be adequate. The largest T5 contribution found in the present work is on the order of 0.5 kcal/mol (for ozone). DBOCs are significant at the 0.1 kcal/mol level in hydride systems. Post-CCSD(T) contributions to the core-valence correlation energy are only significant at that level in systems with severe nondynamical correlation effects. Based on the accumulated experience, a new computational thermochemistry protocol for first- and second-row main-group systems, to be known as W4 theory, is proposed. Its computational cost is not insurmountably higher than that of the earlier W3 theory, while performance is markedly superior. Our W4 atomization energies for a number of key species are in excellent agreement (better than 0.1 kcal/mol on average, 95% confidence intervals narrower than 1 kJ/mol) with the latest experimental data obtained from Active Thermochemical Tables. Lower-cost variants are proposed: the sequence W1-->W2.2-->W3.2-->W4lite-->W4 is proposed as a converging hierarchy of computational thermochemistry methods. A simple a priori estimate for the importance of post-CCSD(T) correlation contributions (and hence a pessimistic estimate for the error in a W2-type calculation) is proposed.     

Direct identification of propargyl radical in combustion flames by vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry

We have developed an effusive laser photodissociation radical source, aiming for the production of vibrationally relaxed radicals. Employing this radical source, we have measured the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization efficiency (PIE) spectrum of the propargyl radical (C(3)H(3)) formed by the 193 nm excimer laser photodissociation of propargyl chloride in the energy range of 8.5-9.9 eV using high-resolution (energy bandwidth = 1 meV) multibunch synchrotron radiation. The VUV-PIE spectrum of C(3)H(3) thus obtained is found to exhibit pronounced autoionization features, which are tentatively assigned as members of two vibrational progressions of C(3)H(3) in excited autoionizing Rydberg states. The ionization energy (IE = 8.674 +/- 0.001 eV) of C(3)H(3) determined by a small steplike feature resolved at the photoionization onset of the VUV-PIE spectrum is in excellent agreement with the IE value reported in a previous pulsed field ionization-photoelectron study. We have also calculated the Franck-Condon factors (FCFs) for the photoionization transitions C(3)H(3) (+)(X;nu(i),i = 1-12)<--C(3)H(3)(X). The comparison between the pattern of FCFs and the autoionization peaks resolved in the VUV-PIE spectrum of C(3)H(3) points to the conclusion that the resonance-enhanced autoionization mechanism is most likely responsible for the observation of pronounced autoionization features. We also present here the VUV-PIE spectra for the mass 39 ions observed in the VUV synchrotron-based photoionization mass spectrometric sampling of several premixed flames. The excellent agreement of the IE value and the pattern of autoionizing features of the VUV-PIE spectra observed in the photodissociation and flames studies has provided an unambiguous identification of the propargyl radical as an important intermediate in the premixed combustion flames. The discrepancy found between the PIE spectra obtained in flames and photodissociation at energies above the IE(C(3)H(3)) suggests that the PIE spectra obtained in flames might have contributions from the photoionization of vibrationally excited C(3)H(3) and/or the dissociative photoionization processes involving larger hydrocarbon species formed in flames.     

Path integrals for quadratic lagrangians on <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic and adelic spaces

Feynman’s path integrals in ordinary, p-adic and adelic quantum mechanics are considered. The corresponding probability amplitudes K(x″, t″; x′, t′) for two-dimensional systems with quadratic Lagrangians are evaluated analytically and obtained expressions are generalized to any finite-dimensional spaces. These general formulas are presented in the form which is invariant under interchange of the number fields ℝ ↔ ℚ _p and ℚ ↔ ℚ _p , p ≠ p′. According to this invariance we have that adelic path integral is a fundamental object in mathematical physics of quantum phenomena.
