Frontier Hyhrid Orbitals . I . Principles *
The purpose of the present paper is to describe a method, in quantitative sense, of discussing the isolobal analogy of fragments (or molecules) proposed by Hoffmann. The »Frontier Hybrid Orbitals (FHO)« are used to represent the directional, fronti er orbitals of the central atom, which have the same meaning as the »lobes« involved in the concept of isolobal analogy. The calculatio n of Frontie...
متن کاملFrontier Hybrid Orbitals . II . Applications
In this paper, the frontier hybrid orbitals (FBO's) of a series of octahedral ML5 fragments are used to discuss the electronic structure and the chemical bond of these fragments and the molecules built of these ML5 fragments. The bond orbitals which are chosen as the linear combination of the frontier hybrid orbitals . of fragments are calculated and explain the electronic structure and propert...
متن کاملConformational and Molecular Structures of α,β-Unsaturated Acrylonitrile Derivatives: Photophysical Properties and Their Frontier Orbitals.
We report single crystal X-ray diffraction (hereafter, SCXRD) analyses of derivatives featuring the electron-donor N-ethylcarbazole or the (4-diphenylamino)phenyl moieties associated with a -CN group attached to a double bond. The compounds are (2Z)-3-(4-(diphenylamino)-phenyl)-2-(pyridin-3-yl)prop-2-enenitrile (I), (2Z)-3-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-2-(pyridin-4-yl)-prop-2-enenitrile (II) and (2...
متن کاملπ-Frontier molecular orbitals in S = 2 ferryl species and elucidation of their contributions to reactivity.
S = 2 Fe(IV) ═ O species are key intermediates in the catalysis of most nonheme iron enzymes. This article presents detailed spectroscopic and high-level computational studies on a structurally-defined S = 2 Fe(IV) ═ O species that define its frontier molecular orbitals, which allow its high reactivity. Importantly, there are both π- and σ-channels for reaction, and both are highly reactive bec...
متن کاملCatalysis beyond frontier molecular orbitals: Selectivity in partial hydrogenation of multi-unsaturated hydrocarbons on metal catalysts
The mechanistic understanding and control over transformations of multi-unsaturated hydrocarbons on transition metal surfaces remains one of the major challenges of hydrogenation catalysis. To reveal the microscopic origins of hydrogenation chemoselectivity, we performed a comprehensive theoretical investigation on the reactivity of two α,β-unsaturated carbonyls-isophorone and acrolein-on seven...
