Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds Aims and scope

Abstract

The π -electron structures and spectra corresponding to singlet -singlet π-π transitions of neutral and protonated pyridyl- and quinolylamine molecules were calculated by the MO LCAO method within the semiempirical Pariser-Parr-Pople approximation with allowance for configuration interaction. It is shown that the π -electron density distribution explains the different directions of nucleophilic and electrophilic substitution reactions in the neutral and protonated heterocycle molecules. It is concluded that the character of protonation of amino-substituted quinolines is distinct.
