Abstract: | With the use of RHF/6-31G(d) and MP2/6-31G(d)//RHF/6-31G(d) semi-empirical (AMI) and non-empirical quantum chemical approximations conformational isomerization of methylboronic acid and its methyl, isopropyl, tert-butyl, and phenyl esters is studied. With the exception of the tert-butyl analogue, the potential energy surface of molecules in these compounds, is shown to contain three minima that correspond to planar and near-planar conformers: cis-cis, trans-trans, and cis-trans, with the latter being the main one. The minima are separated by two conformational isomerization barriers corresponding to the orthogonal arrangement of one of the OH(OR) groups. |
