Mj. Crawford et al., The isomers and energetics of the nitrosamines F2N2O, H2N2O: a computational and conceptual study, J FLUORINE, 102(1-2), 2000, pp. 119-124
The structure and energetics of several isomers of the nitrosamines have be
en investigated using quantum-chemical calculations (PM3/ VSTO-3G*, HF/6-31
+G** and MP 2/6-31+G**). A comparison of the structure and stabilities of t
he H2N2O and F2N2O species results in the observation of both species posse
ssing the same lowest energy isomer, i.e. the isomer with F2NNO connectivit
y with C-1 symmetry. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
