Geometry optimization calculations indicate that H2Ge=CLiF has three equilibrium configurations, in which the three-membered structure is the lowest in energy and thus the most stable. Two transition states for isomerization reactions of H2Ge=CLiF were located and the energy barriers were calculated. For the most stable one, the vibrational frequencies and infrared intensities were predicted.展开更多

Preliminary investigation of the intramolecular C-H insertion with Rh2(OAc)4 as catalyst supports a concerted insertion process.展开更多

An early complex of formaldehyde with CH2CILi is first formed with quite exothermic effect. Only a little activation energy of 14.6 kJ/mol is needed for the complex developing into the product through a transition state with coplanar bicyclic structure. In this process, the eletrophilic attack of carbonyl carbon of formaldehyde is more active than the nucleophilic attack of carbon of carbenoid. The exothermal effect of this addition process is up to 216.5 kJ/mol.展开更多

Three equilibrium structures of H<sub>2</sub>C=CLiCl were obtained, in which the linear structure has the lowest energy and the askew substituted structure was the next. It is found that the decomposition of H<sub>2</sub>C=CLiCl undergoes a concerted FBW rearrangement and the inversion barrier of its askew substituted structure is 36 kJ/mol. For H<sub>2</sub>CLiCl, the askew substituted structure, extending all valences of the carbon into a single hemisphere, is the lowest energy and its inversion barrier is 87 kJ/mol. The discussions on the factors concerned with the structural stabilities are given in this paper.展开更多

With a catalyst loading of 0.5 mol%, the reactions proceeded smoothly at 0℃ to afford a variety of chiral 3-substituted oxindoles in good yields with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities(up to 99% ee). The protocol exhibits good functional group tolerance with respect to 3-diazooxindoles and is readily scaled up to 2 mmol scale without any loss in activity and enantioselectivity. Density functional theory(DFT)calculations have been performed to better understand the reaction mechanism and to explain the stereochemical outcome of the reactions.展开更多
