Because of a high sensitivity of organic molecules to the electron irradiation, it is difficult to analyse the structure of organic materials with a high resolution electron microscopy in atomic resolution.It is expected to be possible as the second best to detect a position of a heavy atom in a molecule even when the molecule became a skeleton as a result of intense electron bombardment. This paper is to report on the effect of damage on molecular image and a role of a heavy atom in the damage process.The specimen is a thin crystalline film of tholium-phthalocyanine (Th-Pc) prepared by epitaxial growth. The film deposited on a single crystal (001)face of KCl by high vacuum evaporation and the thickness was monitored by the use of quartz crystal microbalance to be about 100 A and 50A. The film was supported on gold coated microgrid with small holes of 1-2μm in diameter.

Early studies of enzyme-catalysed hydride transfer reactions indicated kinetic anomalies that were initially interpreted in the context of a ‘tunnelling correction’. An alternate model for tunnelling emerged following studies of the hydrogen atom transfer catalysed by the enzyme soybean lipoxygenase. This invokes full tunnelling of all isotopes of hydrogen, with reaction barriers reflecting the heavy atom, environmental reorganization terms. Using the latter approach, we offer an integration of the aggregate data implicating hydrogen tunnelling in enzymes (i.e. deviations from Swain–Schaad relationships and the semi-classical temperature dependence of the hydrogen isotope effect). The impact of site-specific mutations of enzymes plays a critical role in our understanding of the factors that control tunnelling in enzyme reactions.

Abstract The role of conjugative interaction in stable carbenes of the 1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene type was studied at different levels of ab initio theory employing model compounds. In the case of parent 4,5-dihydro-1 H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene this type of interaction was found to be of similar importance as in 1,2,4-triazole and pyridine.Five stationary points were located on the hypersurface of the dimer (C2N3H3)2 . ΔE for all considered dimerization reactions was found to be negative, and the change of energy associated with the formation of the most stable isomer is about -9.5 kcal/mol. In spite of a high value for the singlet-triplet gap of about 90 kcal/mol for the carbene, the heavy atom skeleton of the most stable dimer is close to planarity. This finding is in perfect accordance with the predictions of other authors regarding the geometry of dimers from singlet carbenes stabilized by π-conjugation.
