Homolytic Bond Dissociation Enthalpies of the C−H Bonds Adjacent to Radical Centers
摘要:
Homolytic bond dissociation enthalpies (BDEs) at 0 and 298 K of the C-H bonds adjacent to various radical centers have been obtained from ab initio CBS-4 (complete basis set) model calculations and experimental data available in the literature. The BDEs of the C-H bonds adjacent to the radical centers derived from 11 saturated hydrocarbons were found to be 33.5 +/- 3 kcal/mol at 298 K. The BDEs of the C-H bonds adjacent to nine allylic and benzylic radical centers were found to be 48 +/- 3 kcal/mol at 298 K, but the benzylic C-H BDE of the PhCH2CH2. radical was found to be only 29.7 and 30.5 kcal/mol at 0 and 298 K, respectively. The BDEs of the vinylic C-H bonds adjacent to four vinylic radical centers were found to be 35.5 +/- 3.5 kcal/mol at 298 K. The BDEs of the vinylic C-H bonds adjacent to three allylic radical centers were found to be 56.5 +/- 3 kcal/mol at 298 K. These results suggest that the radical centers weaken the adjacent C-H bond strengths by about 50-70 kcal/mol. The calculated BDEs agree within +/-2 kcal/mol with most of the available experimental results. Isomerization enthalpies of butenes and pentenes have been obtained. Substituent effects on BDEs have also been examined.

as a source of allylradicals over the temperature range 400–500 °C. The reaction has been studied in both KCl-coated (peroxy species destroyed at the surface) and aged boric-acid-coated vessels (peroxy species preserved), and the basic mechanism shown to be: DMP → t-butyl + [graphic omitted] (1), t-butyl + O2→ i-C4H8+ HO2(2). Previous studies have shown that 99% of the t-butyl radicals undergo reaction
在O 2存在下4,4-二甲基戊-1-烯(DMP)的分解已被用作在400–500°C温度范围内的烯丙基自由基的来源。已在涂有KCl的表面(过氧化物破坏了表面)和老化的硼酸涂过的容器(保留了过氧化物)中研究了该反应,其基本机理为:DMP→叔丁基+ [省略了图示] (1),叔丁基+ O 2 →iC 4 H 8 + HO 2(2)。先前的研究表明,99%的叔丁基自由基会发生反应(2),因此该体系是烯丙基和HO 2自由基的极好来源。
