Ab Initio Study of Possible and Preferred Basic Site(s) in PolyfunctionalN,N1-Dimethyl-N-cyanoformamidine

Abstract: Energies of protonation and of hydrogen-bond complex formation of neutral and protonated forms with one water molecule were studied by means of ab initio calculations for polyfunctional nitrogen “push−pull” base, Me2N−CHN−C⋮N. Two potential basic sites, the N-imino and N-cyano were considered. Calculations with the 6-31G* basis set showed that the N-cyano site is more basic than the N-imino one for both reactions, proton-transfer and hydrogen-bonding in the gas-phase, whereas in water solution, the PCM model … Show more

“…Thus, the protonation of a neutral basic compound B at a specific donor site is written as follows: (10) The PA can be calculated from Eq. (10) as the negative value of difference in enthalpies of product and reactants as follows [46][47][48]:…”

“…An impressive number of substituted amidines has been experimentally studied by Raczynska and co‐workers mostly in the 1990s (Borgarello et al, ; Decouzon et al, ; Raczynska et al, , ; Decouzon et al, ; Raczynska et al, ; Raczynska, Maria, & Gal, ; Raczynska, Mishima, & Yahia, ; Makowski, Raczynska, & Chmurzynski, ). The authors obtained GB values from proton transfer equilibrium constant determination on an ICR mass spectrometer.…”
