Reaction mechanisms of cyclo[18]carbon and triplet oxygen
Jialu Chen, Liang Sun, Ruiqin Zhang
Abstract
molecules have been considered as possible products. Infrared and Raman spectra were calculated to help in differentiating the final products. The thermal stability of cyclo[17]carbon is rather weak according to ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. This work sheds light on the synthesis of other cyclo[n]carbons and cumulenes by utilizing cyclo[18]carbon.
