The intramolecular C–H insertion of the Mes*-substituted phosphanylidenecarbene [Mes*P=C:] (Mes* = 2,4,6-t-Bu3C6H2) and physicochemical properties of the cyclized product, 6,8-di-tert-butyl-3,4-dihydro-4,4-dimethyl-1-phosphanaphthalene were studied based on ab initio calculations. Whereas the alternative Fritsch–Buttenberg–Wiechell-type rearrangement requires almost no activation energy, the intramolecular cyclization needs an activation energy of 12.3 kcal/mol at the MP2(full)/6-31G(d) condition. DFT calculations supported that the optimized structure of the cyclization product of Mes*P=C: suggests remarkable conjugation effects between the nearly coplanar P=C skeleton and the aryl moiety.

Ab initio calculations on the rearrangement aminonitrene → trans-diimide are reported. It is shown that a bimolecular hydrogen exchange is much easier than a unimolecular 1,2 hydrogen shift: the reactions have activation energies of 4 and 94 kcal/mol, respectively. The hydrogen exchange starts from dimers which have a fairly large stabilization energy. Infrared and Raman frequencies of these dimers are calculated in order to facilitate experimental studies. Some striking similarities are indicated between diimide chemistry and the photochemistry of formaldehyde. It is shown that results from one field are transferable to the other one. From this, some new experiments are suggested.

ABSTRACTIn this paper, we discuss the accuracy of ab-initio calculations for self-interstitial and boron dif-fusion in silicon in light of recent experimental data by de Salvador et al. and Bracht et al. Map-ping the experimental data onto the activation energy vs. Fermi level representation commonly used to display ab-initio results, we show that the experimental results are consistent with each other. While the theoretical LDA value for the boron activation energy as a function of the Fermi level agrees well with experiment, we find for the self-interstitial in line with other calculations an underestimation of the experimental values, despite using total-energy corrections.
