A series of putative metabolites and related analogs of benzene, derived from the valence tautomers benzene oxide and oxepin, was tested for mutage nicity (reversions to histidine prototrophy and forward mutations to resistance to 8-azaguanine) and for cytotoxicity by the Ames Salmonella mutagenicit
The prototropic tautomerism of 8-azaadenine (azaade) was studied theoretically by means of ab initio methods, in both the gas phase and aqueous solution. A number of tautomeric forms were not included in the calculations after applying a stepwise elimination procedure based on both AM1 and HF/6-31G\
The benzene • • • hexafluorobenzene stacking interaction was evaluated at several levels of theory. At the MP2/6-31G\*\* level, it is estimated that the interaction is stabilizing by approximately 3.7 kcal mol Ϫ 1 . Lower levels of theory perform poorly on this system. This is a fairly strong non-co
