Vv. Smirnov et al., STRUCTURE OF THE 1 1 CHLORINE-ETHYLENE COMPLEX IN MEDIA OF DIFFERENT POLARITY - QUANTUM-CHEMICAL AM1 STUDY/, Journal of structural chemistry, 34(4), 1993, pp. 501-504
Chlorine-ethylene complexes in the gas phase and in highly polar and n
onpolar solvents have been calculated by the semiempirical AMI method
using the continuum model of solvent. The calculated complex has an ax
ial structure. The solvent, including a nonpolar one, additionally sta
bilizes the complex as compared to that in the gas phase. The calculat
ed stabilization energy is in agreement with experimental data.
