The kinetics of the gas phase racemization and rearrangement of 2,3-diisopropenyloxirane have been determined. Comparison with the kinetic data for 2,3-divinyloxirane allows us to exclude the mechanism for the formation of vinyldihydrofuran wherein an inward conrotatory ring opening comprises the first step. The mechanism proposed consists of an isomerization about the carbon–oxygen bond of the carbonyl ylide to form an isomeric intermediate which then undergoes a disrotatory five-centered ring closure to produce 2-isopropenyl-4-methyl-2,3-dihydrofuran.

In this study, mechanism and stereochemistry of multicomponent domino Knoevenagel/Diels–Alder reaction were investigated theoretically. Structures of reagents, transition states, intermediates, and products were optimized at M062X/6-31[Formula: see text]G(d,p) level of theory. Although the mechanism of this reaction involved several processes, including bond rotation, isomerization, asymmetric cycloaddition, acid-base, and nucleophile–electrophile competitions, critical processes were studied to provide a clearer picture of the mechanism of this valuable reaction in terms of stereochemistry considerations. According to the results, the ring closure step of reaction performed via a polar Dield-Alder mechanism, having enthalpy at approximately 40[Formula: see text]kcal/mol. The diastereoselectivity of the reaction was controlled by the interaction of dienophile with the less hindered face of diene through a more stable endo transition state ([Formula: see text] and 27.31 in methanol and gas phase, respectively). HSAB criteria could explain the regioselectivity of this reaction by considering the least softness difference ([Formula: see text]) for interacting C-atoms based on Hirshfeld populations. The result was the creation of cis-spiro cyclohexanone under kinetic and thermodynamic controls as a predominant diastereoselective and regioselective product.

The authors proposed and treated quantitatively a kinetic model for deposition of epitaxial GaAs layers prepared by reaction of trimethylgallium with arsine in hydrogen atmosphere. The transport of gallium to the surface of the substrate is considered as the controlling process. The influence of the rate of chemical reactions in the gas phase and on the substrate surface on the kinetics of the deposition process is neglected. The calculated dependence of the growth rate of the layers on the conditions of the deposition is in a good agreement with experimental data in the temperature range from 600 to 800°C.
