This research examined the effects of solvent polarity and temperature on the tautomerization of a carbonitrile molecule at CAM-B3LYP/6-311G (d,p) level of theory. The selected solvents were n-hexane, diethyl ether, pyridine, ethanol, methanol, and water. The solvent effects were examined by the self-consistent reaction field theory (SCRF) based on conductor-like polarizable continuum model (CPCM). The solvent effects were explored on the energy barrier, frontier orbitals energies, and HOMO-LUMO gap. Dependencies of thermodynamic parameters (ΔG and ΔH) on the dielectric constants of solvents were also tested. Specifically, the temperature dependencies of the thermodynamics parameters were studied within 100–1000 K range. The rate constant of the tautomerism reaction was computed from 300 to 1200 K, in the gas phase.

We have investigated the solvent effects on the nonlinear and spectroscopic optical properties of some azo-enaminone molecules in the gas phase and in methanol and water solutions.

Abinitio calculations have been carried out on the relative stabilities of various possible products of the reaction between cytosine and the OH radical. These products are of importance in modelling radiation damage to living tissues. The preferred theoretical gas-phase addition site is the C6 ring atom according to these calculations. The analysis of a series of possible contributions to solvent effects strongly suggests the predominance of intermolecular H bonds in stabilizing the experimentally observed C5 adduct.
