Abstract

The molecular structure and conformational behavior of 3-cyclopropyl-1,2-dimethyldiaziridine have been for the first time experimentally studied by gas-phase electron diffraction and quantum chemical calculations. The two most stable conformers at 298 K possess anti and gauche mutual ring orientation (with prevalence of the anti conformer) whereas only one anti conformer is observed in solution. The determined structural parameters of gaseous 3-cyclopropyl-1,2-dimethyldiaziridine have been compared with those for 3,3-bidiaziridine structural analogues in the crystal phase. The simple and convenient procedure for the synthesis of 3-cyclopropyl-1,2-dimethyldiaziridine comprising cyclopropane and diaziridine rings in one molecule was developed. The standard enthalpy of formation of 3-cyclopropyl-1,2-dimethyldiaziridine in the gas phase was calculated using Gaussian-4 theory, yielding value of 281.9 ± 5.0 kJ/mol.
