SOLVENT EFFECT ON THE VALENCE TAUTOMERISM OF BENZENE OXIDE/OXEPIN MOLECULAR SYSTEM

Thermodynamic parameters for the benzene oxide <=> oxepin system have been calculated at MP4(SDQ)/6-31+G**//HF/6-31G** level of theory. The calculated enthalpy for this valence tautomeric equilibrium differs from that reported by Vogel et al in 1967, but agree well with the value calculated by...
