QUANTUM-CHEMICAL STUDY OF 4-ELEMENT-SUBSTITUTED AND 8-ELEMENT-SUBSTITUTED TETRAHYDRO-SYM-INDACENES .1. A STUDY OF ETHYL-4,8-DISILA-3A,4,4A,8-TETRAHYDRO-SYM-INDACENE - THE STRUCTURE AND MECHANISMS OF SIGMATROPIC REARRANGEMENTS
Np. Glinskaya et al., QUANTUM-CHEMICAL STUDY OF 4-ELEMENT-SUBSTITUTED AND 8-ELEMENT-SUBSTITUTED TETRAHYDRO-SYM-INDACENES .1. A STUDY OF ETHYL-4,8-DISILA-3A,4,4A,8-TETRAHYDRO-SYM-INDACENE - THE STRUCTURE AND MECHANISMS OF SIGMATROPIC REARRANGEMENTS, Russian chemical bulletin, 42(5), 1993, pp. 810-817
Energies, geometries, and electronic structures of structural isomers
of ethyl-4,8-disila-3a,4,4a,8-tetrahydro-sym-indacene as well as some
transition states for the intramolecular metallotropic rearrangements
of these compounds were calculated using the semiempirical quantum-che
mical INDO and MNDO methods. The applicability of the MINDO/3, INDO, a
nd MNDO methods for describing eta1-silyl derivatives of cyclopentadie
nes was tested on model compounds R3SiC5H5, where R is Me or H.
