Abstract
Ab initio quantum mechanical calculations were performed for structures and force fields $(HF/6-31G^{\ast}//HF/6-31G^{\ast a})$ of 3,3-dimethylbutene-1, cyclopropene, 1-methylcyclopropene, and 1-trimethylsilyl-, 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)-, 1-trimethylgermyl-, 1,2-bis(trimethylgermyl)-, 1-trimethylstannyl-, and 1,2-bis(trimethylstannyl)-3,3-dimethylcyclopropene. Scale factors for correction of the quantum mechanical force fields of cyclopropene, 1-methylcyclopropene, and 3,3-dimethylbutene-1 were determined using Pulay's scaling $method.^{b}$ Only the experimental vibrational frequencies of the light isotopomers of these molecules were used in the scaling procedure. The set of scale factors obtained was transferred to the quantum mechanical force fields of all the other molecules mentioned above. The vibrational problems for these molecules were solved. Complete vibrational analyses were carried out for the whole set of these related compounds. Transferability of scale factors for series of related compounds of cyclopropene with heteroatoms from the IVa group of the Mendeleyev Periodic System of chemical elements was demonstrated.
