Importance of the Electron Correlation and Dispersion Corrections in Calculations Involving Enamines, Hemiaminals, and Aminals. Comparison of B3LYP, M06-2X, MP2, and CCSD Results with Experimental Data
摘要:
While B3LYP, M06-2X, and MP2 calculations predict the Delta G degrees values for exchange equilibria between enamines and ketones with similar acceptable accuracy, the M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p) and MP2/6-311+G(d,p) methods are required for enamine formation reactions (for example, for enamine 5a, arising from 3-methylbutanal and pyrrolidine). Stronger disagreement was observed when calculated energies of hemiaminals (N,O-acetals) and aminals (N,N-acetals) were compared with experimental equilibrium constants, which are reported here for the first time. Although it is known that the B3LYP method does not provide a good description of the London dispersion forces, while M06-2X and MP2 may overestimate them, it is shown here how large the gaps are and that at least single-point calculations at the CCSD(T)/6-31+G(d) level should be used for these reaction intermediates; CCSD(T)/6-31+G(d) and CCSD(T)/6-311+G(d,p) calculations afford Delta G degrees values in some cases quite close to MP2/6-311+G(d,p) while in others closer to M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p). The effect of solvents is similarly predicted by the SMD, CPCM, and IEFPCM approaches (with energy differences below 1 kcal/mol).

Enamines from 3-methylbutanal and several Pro- and Phe-derived secondaryamines were prepared in DMSO-d6, CD3CN, and CDCl3. For the first time, the relative thermodynamic stabilities of these and other enamines were compared, and rapid exchanges of 1-alkenyl groups were demonstrated. Competition experiments showed that the most favored enamines (without significant steric inhibition of resonance) react
在DMSO- d 6,CD 3 CN和CDCl 3中制备了3-甲基丁醛的烯胺以及几种Pro和Phe衍生的仲胺。第一次,比较了这些和其他烯胺的相对热力学稳定性,并证明了1-烯基的快速交换。竞争实验表明,最喜欢的烯胺(对共振没有明显的空间抑制作用)与亲电子试剂反应更快。
