The influence of BF3 on the reaction path of the [4 + 2] cycloaddition of vinylketene with formaldimine. A computational study, in Proceedings of the 10th International Electronic Conference on Synthetic Organic Chemistry, 1–30 November 2006, MDPI: Basel, Switzerland, doi:10.3390/ecsoc-10-014553-906980-18-9http://hdl.handle.net/10347/26817The 10th International Electronic Conference on Synthetic Organic Chemistry session Computational ChemistryA comprehensive B3LYP/6-31+G* study of the influence of BF3 on the [4 + 2] cycloaddition of vinylketene with formaldimine was conducted. For this purpose, the complete pathway was determined and changes in different magnetic properties (magnetic susceptibility, χ, magnetic susceptibility anisotropy, χanis, and the nucleus-independent chemical shifts, NICS) were monitored along the reaction profile with a view to estimating the aromatization associated to the process. We have also applied the ACID (anisotropy of the current-induced density) method with the same intention.eng©2007 by MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Open Accessbook part10.3390/ecsoc-10-01455open access
