    • Benzene under High Pressure: a Story of Molecular Crystals Transforming to Saturated Networks, with a Possible Intermediate Metallic Phase

      Xiao-Dong Wen, Roald Hoffmann, and N. W. Ashcroft
      Journal of the American Chemical Society2011 133 (23), 9023-9035

      In a theoretical study, benzene is compressed up to 300 GPa. The transformations found between molecular phases generally match the experimental findings in the moderate pressure regime (<20 GPa): phase I (Pbca) is found to be stable up to 4 GPa, while ...

    • Rearrangement of Dewar Benzene Derivatives Studied by DFT

      Martin Dračínský, Obis Castaño, Martin Kotora and Petr Bouř
      The Journal of Organic Chemistry2010 75 (3), 576-581

      Skeletal rearrangement of a series of substituted Dewar benzenes to biaryl products was studied with DFT methods. Excellent agreement of calculated free energies of activation with experimental kinetic data was achieved. Two different transition states ...

    Journal of the American Chemical Society1999 121 (17), 4215-4221
    • o-, m-, and p-Diphosphabenzenes and Their P2(C−H)4 Valence Isomers. An Ab Initio Theoretical Study

      Laurence Colombet, François Volatron, Philippe Maître, and Philippe C. Hiberty
      Journal of the American Chemical Society1999 121 (17), 4215-4221

      The 24 valence isomers of diphosphinine, P2(C−H)4, have been investigated at an electron-correlated ab initio level and by density functional theory. In analogy with benzene, the three planar forms exhibit full aromaticity and are the most stable isomers ...

    • Strain Energies of Silicon Rings and Clusters

      Ming Zhao and Benjamin M. Gimarc
      Inorganic Chemistry1996 35 (18), 5378-5386

      Strain energies of silicon ring and cluster compounds can be calculated as energy changes of homodesmotic reactions that convert cyclic structures into acyclic molecules. The energy changes of these reactions can be calculated by taking differences ...
