A molecular mechanics and semiempirical molecular orbital study on the conformation of polynorbornene chains.

abstract：:This work is focused in three topical subjects: intermolecular interactions, metal ions, and aromaticity. A comprehensive MP2/6-31 + G and B3LYP/6-31 + G study of the influence of cation-π interactions on the aromatic character of phosphole was conducted. For this purpose, the structures of complexes were optimized at...
