- W2071511577 abstract "The physical event of the umbrella inversion of ammonia has been studied in detail by application of the formalisms of frontier orbital theory, the density functional theory, the localized molecular orbital method, and the energy partitioning analysis. An intuitive structure for the transition state and dynamics of the physical process of structural reorganization prior to inversion have been suggested. The computation starts with the CNDO/2 equilibrium geometry, and thereafter the cycle proceeds through all the conformations of ammonia obtained by varying the ∠HNH angle in steps of 2° from its equilibrium value up to the transition state. The geometry of each conformation is optimized with respect to the length of the N–H bond. The glimpses of the charge density reorganization during the movement of the molecule from equilibrium conformation toward the transition state is computed in terms of dipole moment and the quantum mechanical hybridizations of bond pair and lone pair of N atom through the localized molecular orbitals (LMOs) of all the conformations. Results demonstrate that as the geometry of the molecule begins to evolve through the reorganization of structure, the N–H bond length and the dipole moment begin to decrease, and the trend continues up to the transition state. The dipole moment of the molecule at the suggested transition state is zero. The computed nature of quantum mechanical hybridization of bond pair and lone pair of the N atom as a function of reaction coordinates of the ∠HNH angles reveals that the percentage of s character of the lone pair hybrid decreases and that of the bond pair hybrid forming the σ(N–H) bond increases during the process of geometry reorganization from the equilibrium shape to the transition state. The rationale of the zero dipole moment of the transition state for inversion is not straightforward from its point-group symmetry, but is self-evident from its electronic structure drawn in terms of LMOs. The electronic structure of the transition state, which may be drawn in terms of the LMOs, seems to closely reproduce its suggested intuitive structure. The pattern of variation of dipole moment and nature of the changes of the percentage of the s character in the lone pair hybrid creating dipole with the evolution of geometry during the physical process of structural reorganization for the inversion are found to be nicely correlated according to the suggestion of Coulson. The profiles of the increasing strength of the N–H bond and the increasing percentage of s character of the bond pair hybrid of N atom forming this bond as a function of reaction coordinates are also found to be correlated in accordance with the suggestion of Coulson. The profile of global hardness as a function of reaction coordinate seems to demonstrate that the dynamics of the evolution of the molecular structure from equilibrium shape to the transition state following the course of suggested mode of structural reorganization conforms to the principle of maximum hardness (PMH). The profiles of parameters like the energies of highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO and LUMO), the gap in energy between HOMO and LUMO, the global hardness, the global softness, and chemical potential as a function of reaction coodinates of a continuous structural evolution from equilibrium shape to the transition state mimic the potential energy diagram of the total energy. Both the frontier orbital parameters and the density functional quantities are found to be equally effective and reliable to monitor the process of necessary structural reorganization prior to the inversion of mofecules. An energy partitioning analysis demonstrates that the origin of barrier has no unique single source rather as many as four mutually exclusive but interacting one- and two-center energy terms within the molecule entail the origin and the height of the barrier. From a close analysis of the results, it seems highly probable that the necessary structural reorganization prior to umbrella inversion of ammonia most realistically occurs following the course of normal modes of vibration of the molecule. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
