✦ Synopsis


Geometry optimization

of perepoyide, 1.4dlradicals and dioxetane for the ethylene plus molecular oxygen system is performed using the energy gradients of the HI' 4-31G and STO-3G solutions. Perepowde 1s less stable than the singlet (UT) diradical by = 24 kcal/mole at the 4-31G level, incompatlblc v. ith the GVB Ci plus thermochemical estrmatlons. The rotatlonal barrier of the terminal methylene group around the C-C bond IS small.
