Journal ArticleDOI
Ion chemistry of anti-o,o dibenzene.
Katrin Schroeter,Detlef Schröder,Helmut Schwarz,G. Devi Reddy,Olaf Wiest,Claudio Carra,Thomas Bally +6 more
TL;DR: It was demonstrated that 1 can be brought into the gas phase as an intact molecule under the experimental conditions employed and suggested that iron mediates the rapid retrocyclization of 1/Fe+ into the bis-ligated benzene complex [(C6H6)2Cr]+.
Journal ArticleDOI
The bicyclobutane radical cation revisited: Electronic structure and mechanism of ring inversion
TL;DR: In this paper, the electronic structure and mechanism of the ring inversion process in the radical cation of bicyclobutane were investigated using semi-empirical theory and ab initio theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proline as a charge stabilizing amino acid in peptide radical cations
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the proline in hole distribution and transport within a PheProPhe tripeptide was investigated, and it was shown that prolines favor conformers which foster hyperconjugation of two amide groups, which lowers the ionization energy of peptides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electromers of the benzene dimer radical cation
Anna Błoch-Mechkour,Thomas Bally +1 more
TL;DR: The well-studied benzene dimer radical cation, which is prototypical for this class of species, has been reinvestigated computationally and it turned out that both the σ-hemibonded and the half-shifted sandwich structures of the benzene cation represent stationary points on the B2PLYP-D potential energy surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electron-transfer-induced tautomerization in methylindanones: electronic control of the tunneling rate for enolization.
TL;DR: It is shown by quantum chemical calculations that the effect of the remote methyl group in the 4-position is of purely electronic nature in that it stabilizes the unreactive pi-radical relative to the reactive sigma-radical state of the 7-methylindanone radical cation.
