| Abstract | Alkene aziridination by azides through uncatalyzed thermal gas phase routes has been studied using the DFT B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) method, where the possible role of discrete nitrene intermediates is emphasized. The thermal decomposition of azides is studied using the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ strategy as well. The MP2 (but not the B3LYP) results discount the existence of singlet alkylnitrenes where the alkyl group has an α-hydrogen. Addition of the lowest lying singlet and triplet nitrenes R-N (R = H, Me, Ac) to four different alkene substrates leading to aziridine formation was studied by the B3LYP method. Singlet nitrenes with alkenes can yield aziridines via a concerted mechanism, where H-N insertion takes place without a barrier, whereas Me-N shows larger barriers than Ac-N. Methyl substitution in the alkene favors this reaction. Triplet nitrene addition to alkenes is studied as a two-step process, where the initially formed diradical intermediates cyclize to form aziridines by ISC (intersystem crossing) and collapse. Scope for C-C bond rotation in the diradical leads to loss of stereochemical integrity for triplet nitrene addition to cis- and trans-2-butenes. Geometries of the transition states in the various reaction steps studied here are described as “early” or “late” in good accordance with the Hammond postulate. Graphical Abstract The addition of free nitrenes to alkene substrates is studied using DFT and MP2 methods. The B3LYP results predict that concerted azide decomposition can yield singlet nitrenes, unlike the MP2 results. Singlet nitrenes insert into alkenes with a modest or no barrier. Triplet nitrenes employ a step-wise pathway to give aziridines. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
