Molecular Structure of Propylene

Abstract: The microwave spectra of seven isotopic species of propylene have been studied in order to obtain an accurate molecular structure. The complete rs (substitution) structure has been calculated. The more important parameters are: r(C=C)=1.336±0.004 A,r(C–C)=1.501±0.004 A, ≰CCC=124.3∘±0.3∘. The structure is compared with those of related molecules. It is concluded that no difference can be detected in the double-bond lengths in ethylene, propylene, and the vinyl halides. The CC single-bond length in propylene is … Show more

“…The experimental rs (substitution) structure, determined from the microwave spectra of seven isotopomers of 1 (43), is also given for comparison. As expected, the GVB(9)lSTO-3G optimized bond lengths are all longer than those obtained in a complete RHFISTO-3G optimization of 1.…”

“…-Please order a reprint rather than making your own copy. The most probable structure of N-cis Lep-trans allylamine (NH2) was assumed in [5] to be a combination of that of methylamine [7] and that of propene [8], with the exception of the CCC angle (fixed to 126.1° as in butene-1 [9] and the CCC angle which was fitted to 117.6°. The actual increase with respect to the equivalent angle in methylamine (113°) was explained through the strong steric repulsion between the amine hydrogens and the allyl proton.…”

“…Geometries used to calculate atomic coordinates were taken from gas phase electron diffraction results for ethylene (16) and trans-2-butene (17) and from microwave spectroscopy results for propylene (18) and cis-2-butene (19). Bond angle definition and equilibrium values of the bond angles are given in Table 1.…”
