The proton-transfer barriers along the intramolecular hydrogen bond in a series of substituted salicylaldehyde anils were calculated using the AM1 SCF semiempirical method. The reliability of this method for the calculation of proton-transfer barriers was analyzed by the comparison of AM1 barriers f

Proton transfer in the methylnitroatnine-trimethylamine complex has been studied by ab initio methods at the SCF and electron correlation (MP2) levels. At the SCF level there is a double well corresponding to the molecular and to the ionic complex. The double well disappears at the electron correlat
Approximate minimum energy reaction paths have been calculated for two thioketone-enethiol tautomeric systems using an ab initio SCF-MO method. The calculations indicate nearly equal stabilities of the isolated tautomers in both systems and an energy barrier of ca. 85 kcal/mol for their interconvers
The results of an ab initio post-Hartree᎐Fock study of the molecular structures, relative stabilities, and mechanisms of intermolecular proton transfer in isolated and monohydrated cytosine complexes are reported. The geometries of the local minima and transition states were optimized without symmet
