1,4‐Digermacyclopenta‐1,3‐diene: Continuous Cyclic σ*–π Delocalization Enables Aromatic Stabilization in a Heavy‐Element 4π System

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A five‐membered digermacycle exhibits an unusual 4π electron delocalization enabled by σ*(Ge–C)–π coupling within a nearly planar framework. Combined experimental and theoretical analyses reveal a continuous cyclic delocalization pathway, highlighting σ*–π interactions as a design principle for aromatic stabilization beyond classical π‐conjugated ...

Simulating the nanomechanical response of cyclooctatetraene molecules on a graphene device [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We investigate the atomic and electronic structures of cyclooctatetraene (COT) molecules on graphene and analyze their dependence on external gate voltage using first-principles calculations.

Impact of Excited-State Antiaromaticity Relief in a Fundamental Benzene Photoreaction Leading to Substituted Bicyclo[3.1.0]hexenes

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2020
Benzene exhibits a rich photochemistry which can provide access to complex molecular scaffolds that are difficult to access with reactions in the electronic ground state. While benzene is aromatic in its ground state, it is antiaromatic in its lowest ππ*

Performance of 3D-space-based atoms-in-molecules methods for electronic delocalization aromaticity indices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Several definitions of an atom in a molecule (AIM) in three-dimensional (3D) space, including both fuzzy and disjoint domains, are used to calculate electron sharing indices (ESI) and related electronic aromaticity measures, namely, Iringand multicenter ...

Evolution in the structural and bonding properties of Aluminum-Lithium clusters

open access: yes, 2003
We present a systematic study of the geometries, energetics, electronic structure and bonding in various Al-Li clusters viz. AlnLin ($n$=1-11), Al$_2^-$, Al$_2^{2-}$, Al$_2$Li, Al$_2$Li$^-$, and Al6Li8 using Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics within the

The correlation theory of the chemical bond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The quantum mechanical description of the chemical bond is generally given in terms of delocalized bonding orbitals, or, alternatively, in terms of correlations of occupations of localised orbitals.

Nucleus-independent chemical shift profiles along the intrinsic distortion path for Jahn-Teller active molecules. Study on cyclopentadienyl radical and cobaltocene [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2015
The aromatic/antiaromatic behavior of the cyclopentadienyl anion (Cp-), bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)iron(II) (Fe(Cp)2), as well as of the Jahn-Teller (JT) active cyclopentadienyl radical (Cp∙) and bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)cobalt(II) (Co(Cp)2) has ...

Induced magnetic field in sp-hybridized carbon rings: analysis of double aromaticity and antiaromaticity in cyclo[2N]carbon allotropes.

open access: yesPhysical Chemistry, Chemical Physics - PCCP, 2020
The induced magnetic field of C2N (N = 3-14) carbon rings was dissected to contributions from out-of-plane and in-plane π orbitals revealing two concurrent long range shielding or deshielding cones as a manifestation of the dual aromatic and antiaromatic

Predicting the reducing power of organic super electron donors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The utilization of computational methods to predict reactivity is an increasingly useful tool for chemists to save time and materials by screening compounds for desirable reactivity prior to testing in the laboratory.

Cyclo[48]carbon—Evaluation of Its Inherent Magnetic Behavior and Anisotropy from DFT Calculations

open access: yesChemistry
Cyclo[48]carbon (C48) exhibits an aesthetically pleasant structure featuring a cyclic polyyne, and it serves as a prototypical medium-sized ring that moves us towards an understanding of its overall magnetic behavior in a challenging molecular shape ...
