Energetics and the electronic structure of various types of single-walled carbon nanotubes have been investigated by using Density Functional Theory. Armchair [n,n], zigzag [n,0] and chiral [n,m] C₄₀H₂₀ nanotubes have been considered. Calculations show that the armchair isomer is the most stable among the three types and they further reveal the factors that stabilize this isomer....

Hydrogen bond stabilization in Diels–Alder transition states: The cycloaddition of hydroxy-ortho-quinodimethane with fumaric acid and dimethylfumarate

Tamilmani, Venkatachalam ; Daul, Claude A. ; Lage Robles, Jaime ; Bochet, Christian G. ; Venuvanalingam, P.

In: Chemical Physics Letters, 2005, vol. 406, no. 4, p. 355-359

DFT investigations on the mechanism of Diels–Alder reactions of a hydroxy-ortho-quinodimethane with fumaric acid derivatives were performed to understand the origin of the syn or anti configuration of the adducts. The diene hydroxyl group and the dieneophile carboxyl group show hydrogen bonding in the transition state, significantly favouring the syn product. This reaction is poorly...
