Abstract: | Ab initio calculations have been used to examine the reaction profile for the A
wc1 hydrolysis mechanism for formamide, giving a value of 67.3 kcal/mole for H
. Comparisons between computed and experimental proton affinities are used to assess the reliability of the calculations. Orbital energies are reported for formamide, N-protonated and O-protonated formamide, carbon monoxide and the formyl cation. |
