Abstract

Triplet cyclopentane-1,3-diyl diradical (T-DR) was generated via photolysis of 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene (AZ) under low-temperature matrix conditions. Temperature independency of T-DR decay and the kinetic isotope effect of T-DR-d6 provided experimental evidence in favor of heavy-atom (carbon) tunneling process during the decay of T-DR to bicyclo[2.1.0]pentane (CP) via singlet S-DR. For the first time, the formation of CP was confirmed using low-temperature infrared spectra. Computations of the heavy-atom tunneling process using the small-curvature tunneling method demonstrated a fast reaction from S-DR to CP. Moreover, we observed heavy-atom tunneling during denitrogenation of AZ. Stereoselectivity in the tunneling process of T-DR-d6 was observed at 7 K to form retention-CP-d6 in higher amounts compared to inversion-CP-d6. Photolysis of AZ-d6 yielded inv-CP-d6 and ret-CP-d6 in environment- and temperature-dependent ratios. Moreover, because of the prominent matrix effect, T-DR decayed more rapidly in Ar than in glassy organic matrices.

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
