Abstract

Electron density maps for the heterocycles thiophene, furan, and pyrrole are determined from ab initio 4‐31G wavefunctions. The charge distributions in these molecules are analyzed in terms of the total molecular density and difference density maps and their profiles. The atomiclike core, especially the L core of sulfur, is found to play an important role, via its polarization and interaction, in determining the extent and direction of valence density transfer from the carbon to the heteroatom. The changes in the charge distributions that occur in the immediate vicinity of the heteroatoms and the relation of density quantities to binding and antibinding characteristics are discussed. The quantum topological features of the molecular charge distributions of the three heterocycles are analyzed and discussed and the different bonding situations, e.g., ring strain, ionic and covalent binding, etc., are compared in a model‐independent way.

## Abstract The localized molecular orbitals (LMOs) of thiophene, furan, and pyrrole are derived from __ab initio__ 4‐31G wavefunctions using Boys' criteria for localization. From the transferability point of view, these LMOs are classified as (i) completely different and nontransferable LMOs (thes

Dication dissociations of the five-membered nitrogen heterocycles (pyrrole, imidazole, pyrazole, 1,2,3-triazole, 1,2,4triazole and tetrazole) were investigated using charge separation mass spectrometry. Differences in the spectra for isomer pairs reflect an absence of C,N scrambling prior to fragmen

Adequate analyses of canonical molecular orbitals (CMOs) can provide rather detailed information on the importance of different Οƒ-Fermi contact (FC) coupling pathways (FC term transmitted through the Οƒ-skeleton). Knowledge of the spatial distribution of CMOs is obtained by expanding them in terms of
