โฆ Synopsis
The equilibrium structure of the major gas-phase tautomer of adenine is confirmed as being essentially planar, and it is shown that a reported second minimum is, in fact, one of a pair of transition structures for internal rotation of the amino group about the C-NH2 bond. Barrier heights for such rotation are reported at various levels up to MP2/6-3 lG*//3-2 lG( H2N*) and prove to be much greater than the corresponding values for aniline.
