Abstract
Ring strain enthalpies for a series of cyclic amine-boranes (1-azonia- 2-boratacycloalkanes) were calculated from MP4(SDTQ)/6-31G//MP2/6-31G energies by the group equivalent method. Small rings exhibit smaller RSEs than do the corresponding cycloalkanes; larger rings exhibit RSE s essentially identical to those of the corresponding cycloalkanes. (C ) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
