Density functional theory study of adamantanediyl dications C10H142+andprotio-adamantyl dications C10H162+

Abstract: Structures of the isomeric adamantanediyl dications C10H14 2؉ and protio-1-and protio-2-adamantyl dications C10H16 2؉ were investigated by using the density functional theory (DFT) method at the B3LYP͞6 -31G** level. Four structures, 1 b-e, were found to be minima on the potential energy surface of C10H14 2؉ . The 1,3-adamantanediyl dication 1b with two bridgehead tertiary carbocationic centers was found to be the most stable structure. On the potential energy surface of C10H16 2؉ (protonated adamantly cation)… Show more

“…The MP2 computation performs best overall; but the average 13 C NMR error is still 6 ppm. Reference reports similar results for the C 1 carbocationic center employing HF-SCF and B3LYP calculations with much smaller Pople split-valence basis sets. The HF-SCF results are the worst (note the C 1 and C 3 deviations), especially when the poor 1 H performance also is considered.…”

“…Exceptionally, the first 13 C chemical shift computations (at the IGLO level) deviated by 37 ppm from experiment for C 1 , the carbocation center . Subsequent computations using other quantum-chemical procedures, even those including rather elaborate second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2), , also failed to reproduce the experimental NMR data for the 1-adamantyl cation satisfactorily. , We have now employed further methodological developments to revisit this problem and have identified the difficulties. A careful analysis of possible error sources has been carried out.…”

“…1.54 Å). These changes would be not only due to the cationic character generated on C1 but also owing to the hyperconjugation between the four bonds on adamantane and carbocation on C1 or C3. From the distribution of the LUMO as well, the positive charge of 2w seems to be delocalized on the perylene scaffold as well as on the pertinent four C–C bonds (Figure d). In addition to the kinetic protection and inductive effect of the adamantane scaffold, this outstandingly rigidified, thus effective hyperconjugation possibly increases the stability of 2w , which strongly supports that the annulation of adamantane is a powerful strategy for generating stable cationic arenes.…”
