Abstract

Dynamic NMR spectroscopy revealed that pentaphenylcyclopentadienyl isoselenocyanate undergoes reversible hetero-Cope rearrangement (ΔG 408 K ∼ 22 kcal mol−1, C6D5CD3) giving isomeric selenocyanate in which 1,5-sigmatropic shifts of the SeCN group along the perimeter of the cyclopentadiene ring occur (ΔG 298 K = 16.7 kcal mol−1, C6D5CD3). On the contrary, pentaphenylcyclopentadienyl iso(thio)cyanates Ph5C5NCO and Ph5C5NCS are structurally rigid compounds on the NMR time scale. The energy barrier to the 3,3-shift of the isoselenocyanate group in pentaphenylcyclopentadienyl derivative Ph5C5NCSe (ΔG 298 K = 17.9 kcal mol−1) caclulated using the B3LYP/6-31G** method is 7.6 kcal mol−1 lower than for the unsubstituted analog H5C5NCSe.
