Reaction dynamics of the four‐centered elimination CH2OH+→CHO++H2: Measurement of kinetic energy release distribution and classical trajectory calculation
摘要:
Mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) spectrum of CHO+ generated in the unimolecular dissociation of CH2OH+ was measured. Kinetic energy release distribution (KERD) was evaluated by analyzing the spectrum according to the algorithm developed previously. The average kinetic energy release evaluated from the distribution was extraordinarily large, 1.63 eV, corresponding to 75% of the reverse barrier of the reaction. A global analytical potential energy surface was constructed such that the experimental energetics was represented and that various features in the ab initio potential energy surface were closely reproduced. Classical trajectory calculation was carried out with the global analytical potential energy surface to investigate the causes for the extraordinarily large kinetic energy release. Based on the detailed dynamical calculations, it was found that the strained bending forces at the transition state and strengthening of the CO bond from double to triple bond character were mainly responsible for such a significant kinetic energy release. In addition, the dissociation products H2 and CHO+ ion were found to be rotationally excited in the trajectory calculations. This was attributed to the asymmetry of the transition state and the release of asymmetric bending forces. Also, the bending vibrational modes of CHO+ and the H2 stretching mode, which are coupled with the bending coordinates, were found to be moderately excited.

2 → 5 → 4 via Br → MgBr and other exchange reactions. Efficient removal of the vinyl groups from the resulting polyfunctionalized imidazoles was achieved with ozone or potassium permanganate. An extension of this methodology has allowed the first synthesis of thieno[2,3-d] ⇌ [3,2-d]-imidazole.
Sulfur-lithium exchange reaction of 2-substituted-2-(phenylthio)cyclopropanecarboxamides by LDMAN in THF at −50 °C proceeded with invertion of configuration, leading to the predominant formation of trans-2-substituted cyclopropanes, while in tin-lithium exchange, the configuration was maintained at −78 °C.

The deuterium isotope effect on the product energy partitioning in the title reaction was investigated both experimentally and theoretically. The measured kinetic energy release (KER) showed a significant dependence on the position of deuteration. A reliable potential energy surface of the reaction was constructed from ab initio results using the recently developed interpolation algorithm. The classical trajectory calculation on this surface well reproduced the experimental finding. Close inspection of the potential energy surface revealed that the isotope effect on KER and the product rotations arose from the alteration of the symmetry of the reaction path near the transition state induced by the mass change upon isotopic substitution. The product vibrations were found to be affected by the change in the coupling constants which also arose from the mass-dependent change in the reaction path. Possibility of the quantum mechanical tunneling was also considered. Tunneling-corrected classical trajectory results were in excellent agreement with the experimental ones, indicating that the reaction proceeds via barrier penetration below the threshold.
