The equilibrium structure, unimolecular reactions, and bimolecular reactions of nitrile selenides (XCNSe, where X = H, F, Cl, Br, CN, CH3) have been investigated using CCSD(T), CCSD(T)//B3LYP, and MR-AQCC//UB3LYP quantum-chemical methods. Nitrile selenides are demonstrated to be stable under isolated conditions at ambient temperature, i.e. in the dilute gas phase or in an inert solid matrix, but unstable in the condensed phase or solutions owing to bimolecular reactions. FCNSe and CH3CNSe cycloaddition with ethynes, ethenes, and nitriles was studied using the MR-AQCC//UB3LYP method. Cycloaddition was predicted to be facile at room temperature with small dipolarophiles.

The unstable acetonitrile N-sulfide molecule CH3CNS has been photolytically generated in inert solid argon matrix from 3,4-dimethyl-1,2,5-thiadiazole by 254-nm UV irradiation, and studied by ultraviolet spectroscopy and mid-infrared spectroscopy. The molecule is stable in the matrix to 254-nm UV irradiation, but decomposes to CH3CN and a sulfur atom when broad-band UV irradiation is used. Chemiluminescence due to S2 formation from triplet sulfur atoms was detected on warming the matrix to ∼20–25 K. The ground-state structure and potential uni- and bimolecular reactions of CH3CNS are investigated using B3LYP, CCSD(T), and MR-AQCC quantum-chemical methods. CH3CNS is demonstrated to be stable under isolated conditions at room temperature, i.e. in the dilute gas phase or in an inert solid matrix, but unstable owing to bimolecular reactions, i.e. in the condensed phase.

Structures of the two title disilanes have been determined. The presence of bulky, flexible Me3Si groups dictates many aspects of the geometric structures.

AbstractBy using quantum chemical methods (B3LYP/6-311+G(2df,p)//B3LYP/6-31G(d)), we investigated the structures of aplicyanin A, aplicyanin B, aplicyanin C, aplicyanin D, aplicyanin E, and aplicyanin F along with their protonated structures. The calculated gas phase proton affinities of aplicyanin A, aplicyanin C, and aplicyanin E are around –250 kcal mol−1 and therefore more than 10 kcal mol−1 higher as in typical proton sponges such as 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene. The compounds aplicyanin B, aplicyanin D, and aplicyanin F show reduced proton affinities of approximately –240 kcal mol−1 because of the acetyl group being conjugated with the imine N=C moiety. Nucleus-independent chemical shift (NICS) calculations on the same level of theory do not show any peculiarities, and a reasonable correlation between the toxicity of aplicyanins and the gas phase proton affinity is not observed.
