The electronic structure of nitrilimines revisited

Author(s): Robert C Mawhinney

A combination of density-functional theory and natural resonance theory has been used to show that a complete description of the electronic structure of nitrilimines, R(1)CNNR(2), requires four resonance structures (propargylic, allenic, 1,3-dipolar and car...

Characterizing nitrilimines with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. A theoretical study

Author(s): Robert C Mawhinney

The 13C chemical shifts in selected nitrilimines, nitriles, acetylenes, allenes, and singlet carbenes have been calculated using density-functional theory [PBE0/6-311++G(2df,pd)] and the gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) method. The effects of substitut...
