Based upon the geometrical properties of regular polyhedrons, the possibility of the existence of certain polyhedral molecules composed of only one element is investigated. A very promising candidate - the regular dodecahedron - is selected as the convenient polyhedral structural pattern and phosphorus as the appropriate element. A series of high-level ab initio calculations is performed on the dodecahedral P20 molecule, including predictions of its thermodynamic and kinetic stability, natural bond orbital analysis, vibrational analysis, and inclusion of some elements into the molecular skeleton. Due to the potential stabilizing agents that may eventually form stable inclusion compounds and the estimated high kinetic stability, the question of the possible existence of P20 is answered in the positive.Key words: ab initio calculations, inclusion compounds, P20, phosphorus clusters, polyhedra.

We report high level ab initio calculations (treating correlation by second order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory, MP2) of various two-dimensional (2D), three-dimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) normal coordinate subspaces of the full 12D coordinate space of trans formic acid, HCOOH. With the resulting potential and electric dipole hyper-surfaces accurate vibrational variational calculations are carried out using a discrete variable representation (DVR) for the anharmonically coupled modes. The full absorption spectra are calculated and the overtone spectra of the OH chromophore, which clearly dominates the entire absorption spectrum, are analyzed in detail with respect to their anharmonic resonance dynamics. We have investigated the OH/CH stretching coupling, which is an example for a coupling across bonds, in terms of direct and indirect coupling terms. A close resonance coupling of 5

A configurational assignment of the isomeric methylglyoxal bisdimethylhydrazones derived from the 2-ethoxypropenal precursor has been performed based on experimental measurements and high-level ab initio calculations of 1J(C,C) and 1J(C,H) couplings. The results reveal the marked stereochemical dependence upon the orientation of the lone pairs of both nitrogen atoms in different isomers. Methylglyoxal bisdimethylhydrazone is shown to exist in a mixture of the EE and ZE isomers (ca. 75:25), both of which adopt predominant s-trans conformations with minor (up to 8°) out-of-plane deviations.

According to high-level ab initio results (SCS-MP2/CBS), the interaction energy between all-cis 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexafluorocyclohexane and a benzene molecule is at least −6 kcal mol−1, remarkably large for C–H⋯π interactions between hydrocarbons.
