CCCCC pentadentate chelates with planar Möbius aromaticity and unique properties
The coordinating atoms in polydentate chelates are primarily heteroatoms. We present the first examples of pentadentate chelates with all binding atoms of the chelating agent being carbon atoms, denoted as CCCCC chelates. Having up to five metal-carbon bonds in the equatorial plane has not been previously observed in transition metal chemistry. Density functional theory calculations showed that...
متن کاملMöbius Aromaticity : Which Side Are You on ?
INTRODUCTION The idea of Möbius aromaticity was first proposed by Heilbronner in 1964. He postulated that a molecule could gain Möbius aromatic stabilization if the nuclear framework were twisted so the porbitals composing the π-system would contain an odd number of nodes. To introduce a node in the orbitals, Heilbronner theorized that a series of p-orbitals could itself be twisted by contortin...
متن کاملEvaluation of the nonlinear optical properties for an expanded porphyrin Hückel-Möbius aromaticity switch.
The conformational flexibility of the expanded porphyrins allows them to achieve different topologies with distinct aromaticities and nonlinear optical properties (NLOP). For instance, it is possible to switch between Möbius and Hückel topologies applying only small changes in the external conditions or in the structure of the ring. In this work, we evaluate the electronic and vibrational contr...
متن کاملRecent Studies on the Aromaticity and Antiaromaticity of Planar Cyclooctatetraene
Cyclooctatetraene (COT), the first 4nπ-electron system to be studied, adopts an inherently nonplanar tub-shaped geometry of D2d symmetry with alternating single and double bonds, and hence behaves as a nonaromatic polyene rather than an antiaromatic compound. Recently, however, considerable 8π-antiaromatic paratropicity has been shown to be generated in planar COT rings even with the bond alter...
متن کاملMöbius basket molecule: structure and properties.
Expanding the non-knot region of the famous Möbius strip with topological one-sided characteristics, an interesting structure of a Möbius basket molecule with all real frequencies was obtained at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level for the first time. This structure contains six fused five-membered pyrrole rings contrasting with the isolated pentagon rule for the fullerenes. The twisted handle joints the ...
