Axis Of Rotation

By following the intrinsic reaction coordinate connecting transition states with energy minima on the potential energy surface, we have determined the reaction steps connecting three-dimensional hexaborane(12) with unknown planar two-dimensional hexaborane(12). In an effort to predict the potential synthesis of finite planar borane molecules, we found that the reaction limiting factor stems from the breaking of the central boron-boron bond perpendicular to the C2 axis of rotation in three-dimensional hexaborane(12).

Hydrogen Migration

The 1,2-hydrogen migration of hydrogen peroxide has been investigated by abinitio methods and the Intrinsic Reaction Coordinate (IRC) has been constructed. An analysis of the evolution of the electron distribution along the reaction path has shown that the shifting hydrogen behaves as a proton. This transferring proton polarizes the O—O bond of the hydrogen peroxide that becomes broken at the transition state. If a water molecule is allowed to participate in the reaction, the energy barrier is noticeably lowered, this water molecule acting as a bifunctional catalyst. Keywords: 1,2-hydrogen migration, hydrogen peroxide, proton transfer, bifunctional catalyst, Intrinsic Reaction Coordinate.
