✦ Synopsis


The structure and energetics of the complexes of 4-nitrophenyl[bis(methylsulfonyl)]methane (I) with 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5ene (TBD) in vacuo and in acetonitrile solvent are predicted at the MP2/cc-pVDZ level of theory. In the gas phase, the energies of possible ion-pair complexes are calculated to be Γ€92.0 (structure 1), Γ€100.4 (structure 2), Γ€100.7 (structure 3), and Γ€75.3 kcal mol Γ€1 (structure 4), relative to the energy of the separated ions. In acetonitrile solvent, the corresponding relative energies are Γ€109.6, Γ€116.0, Γ€114.8, and Γ€105.7 kcal mol Γ€1 . The NH-ON complex seems to be unfavorable energetically in the solid state, however, it becomes more possible in acetonitrile, as indicated by the reduced relative energy values.
