The present investigation deals with the study of the N–H bond dissociation enthalpies (BDEs) of the Y-substituted (NH2-C(=X)Y-R) and N-substituted ((R)(H)NC(=X)YH) carbamates (X, Y = O, S, Se; R = H, CH3, F, Cl, NH2), which have been evaluated using ab initio and density functional methods. The variations in N−H BDEs of these Y-substituted and N-substituted carbamates as the effect of substituent have been understood in terms of molecule stabilization energy (ME) and radical stabilization energy (RE), which have been calculated using the isodesmic reactions. The natural bond orbital analysis indicated that the electrodelocalization of the lone pairs of heteroatoms in the molecules and radicals affect the ME and RE values depending upon the type and site of substitution (whether N- or Y-). The variations in N−H BDEs depend upon the combined effect of molecule stabilization and radical stabilization by the various substituents.

Villiger Oxidation

Six esters have been synthesized in the acetylation, benzoylation and Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of starting materials totaradiol 1, totaratriol 2, hinikione 7 and totarolone 8. A complete theoretical study of the reaction has been carried out including highly regioselectivity induction experiments and using density functional methods B3LYP/6-31G(d). The analysis of the nucleophilic Parr functions P - k and the electrostatic potential in diterpenes 1 and 2 offered an explanation of the regioselectivity found in these reactions and in Baeyer-Villiger reaction we use transition state theory and the electrostatic potential to understand the high regioselectevity observed, we found that the regioselectivity is kinetically and thermodynamically favorable and the electronic density is located in the multi-substituted carbon.
