cis- and trans-2,5,7,9-Tetranitro-2,5,7,9-tetraazabicyclo[4,3,0]nonan-8-one and Some of its Isomers-A DFT Treatise
Abstract
Some geometrical isomers of tetranitro-tetraazabicyclonanones (the titled compounds) and some of their constitutional isomers are investigated quantum chemically at the level of B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p). The constitutional isomers differ from the title compounds by the position of the carbonyl group. All the structures are nitramines (actually nitramides of organic sense). The constitutional isomers considered are capable of exhibiting proton tautomerism (keto-enol type). The tautomers have also been subjected to density functional treatment at the same level of calculation. For all the structures various electronic, energetic and spectral data have been collected and discussed.
