Chemistry-Relevant Isospectral Graphs. Acyclic Conjugated Polyenes*
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract: By using the topological index Z and Z-counting polynomial proposed by the present author isospectral (IS) pairs of acyclic conjugated polyenes (C2nH2n+2) were studied. Besides the hitherto known smallest pair of n = 6, four and twenty seven pairs of n = 7 and 8, respectively, were first reported. Inspection of these results revealed several new features of IS tree graphs, i.e., appearance of two pairs of endospectral vertices in a tree graph and existence of several families of IS pair graphs whose Z-indices systematically grow up to infinity. Further several IS pairs were found to be closely related with each other topologically and called “intrinsic” IS pairs. Important role of the Z-index for analyzing the IS graphs is demonstrated.

Genealogy of Conjugated Acyclic Polyenes.
Based on the total π-electron energies Eπs of Hückel Molecular Orbital (HMO) method for all the possible isomers of conjugated acyclic polyenes (C₂nH₂n+2) up to n = 7, the structure-stability relation of the possible isomers was analyzed. It was shown that the mean length of conjugation L can roughly predict the ordering of stability among isomers, while the Z-index, or Hosoya-index, can almost...
متن کاملTopological Relationship Between One-Dimensional Box Model and Randić Indices in Linear Simple Conjugated Polyenes
The alternative double bonds and conjugation in the polyene compounds are one of the main properties in these compounds. Each carbon-carbon bonds in a polyene compound along the chain has appreciable double-bond character. The p-electrons are therefore not localized but are relatively free to move throughout the entire carbon skeleton as an one-dimensional box. The skeleton be considered as a r...

While reviewing molecules corresponding to reciprocal graphs (graphs with all reciprocal eigenvalue pairs), new examples of reciprocal graphs are presented. Essential features of cross-conjugation are delineated, and how this phenomenon is important in the design of conducting and ferromagnetic polymers is discussed. Some recursion equations for determining characteristic polynomials of comb an...
متن کاملThe Factorisation of Chemical Graphs and Their Polynomials: A Polynomial Diyision Approach
Recent advances in computational methods allow the Characteristic and Acyclic Polynomials of a Chemical Graph to be calculated easily. A consequence of this is that checking for a zero-value remainder after computer assisted polynomial division is sometimes the simplest way of testing suspected factors of a chemical graph. The technique is simple enough to apply on a routine basis when characte...
متن کاملA new strategy for the synthesis of cyclic terpenoids based on the radical opening of acyclic epoxypolyenes.
The cationic cyclization of polyenes has proved to be a useful tool in the synthesis of natural terpenic products.1 During recent years biomimetic approaches using radical chemistry have also been described.2,3 One of the most efficient is based on Mn(III) chemistry, which in the presence of Cu(II) resolves one of the main problems involved in radical reactions, the loss of funcionality.4,5 Ano...
