Bond energies
De = EAB(R=∞) - EAB(Re)
Get from QM calculations. Re is
distance at minimum energy
D0 = H0AB(R=∞) - H0AB(Re)
H0=Ee + ZPE is enthalpy at T=0K
ZPE = S(½Ћw)
This is spectroscopic bond energy from
ground vibrational state (0K)
Including ZPE changes bond distance
slightly to R0
Experimental bond enthalpies at 298K and atmospheric pressure
D298(A-B) = H298(A) – H298(B) – H298(A-B)
D298 – D0 = 0∫298 [Cp(A) +Cp(B) – Cp(A-B)] dT =2.4 kcal/mol if A and
B are nonlinear molecules (Cp(A) = 4R). {If A and B are atoms D298
– D0 = 0.9 kcal/mol (Cp(A) = 5R/2)}.

CH2 +CH2  ethene
Starting with two methylene radicals (CH2) in the
ground state (3B1) we can form ethene
(H2C=CH2) with both a s bond and a p bond.

The HCH angle in CH2 was 132.3º, but Pauli Repulsion with
the new s bond, decreases this angle to 117.6º (cf with 120º
for CH3)

5
Twisted ethene
Consider now the case where the plane of one CH2 is rotated by
90º with respect to the other (about the CC axis)
This leads only to a s bond. The
nonbonding pl and pr orbitals can be
combined into singlet and triplet states
Here the singlet state is referred to as N (for Normal) and the
triplet state as T.
Since these orbitals are orthogonal, Hund’s rule suggests that T is
lower than N (for 90º). The Klr ~ 0.7 kcal/mol so that the splitting
should be ~1.4 kcal/mol.
Voter, Goodgame, and Goddard [Chem. Phys. 98, 7 (1985)] showed that N is
below
T by 1.2 kcal/mol, due
to Intraatomic
Exchange
(s,p
same center)

Twisting potential surface for ethene
The twisting potential surface for ethene is shown below. The
N state prefers θ=0º to obtain the highest overlap while the T
state prefers θ=90º to obtain the lowest overlap

CC double bond energies
The bond energies for ethene are
De=180.0, D0 = 169.9, D298K = 172.3 kcal/mol
Breaking the double bond of ethene, the HCH bond angle
changes from 117.6º to 132.xº, leading to an increase of 2.35
kcal/mol in the energy of each CH2 so that
Desnap = 180.0 + 4.7 = 184.7 kcal/mol
Since the Desnap = 109.6 kcal/mol, for H3C-CH3,
The p bond adds 75.1 kcal/mol to the bonding.
Indeed this is close to the 65kcal/mol rotational barrier.
For the twisted ethylene, the CC bond is De = 180-65=115
Desnap = 115 + 5 =120. This increase of 10 kcal/mol compared to
ethane might indicate the effect of CH repulsions

bond energy of F2C=CF2
The snap bond energy for the double bond of ethene of
Desnap = 180.0 + 4.7 = 184.7 kcal/mol
As an example of how to use this consider
the bond energy of F2C=CF2,
Here the 3B1 state is 57 kcal/higher than 1A1
so that the fragment relaxation is 2*57 = 114
kcal/mol, suggesting that the F2C=CF2 bond
energy is Dsnap~184-114 = 70 kcal/mol.

57 kcal/mol
The experimental value is D298 ~ 75
kcal/mol, close to the prediction

CC triple bonds
Since the first CCs bond is De=95 kcal/mol and the first CCp
bond adds 85 to get a total of 180, one might wonder why the
CC triple bond is only 236, just 55 stronger.
The reason is that forming the triple bond
requires promoting the CH from 2P to 4S-,
which costs 17 kcal each, weakening the
bond by 34 kcal/mol. Adding this to the 55
would lead to a total 2nd p bond of 89
kcal/mol comparable to the first

Note extra stability of odd Cn by 33 kcal/mol, this is because odd
Cn has an empty px orbital at one terminus and an empty py on the
other, allowing stabilization of both p systems

More on resonance
That benzene would have a regular 6-fold symmetry is not
obvious. Each VB spin coupling would prefer to have the
double bonds at ~1.34A and the single bond at ~1.47 A (as
the central bond in butadiene)
Thus there is a cost to distorting the structure to have equal
bond distances of 1.40A.
However for the equal bond distances, there is a
resonance stabilization that exceeds the cost of distorting
the structure, leading to D6h symmetry.

53
Cyclobutadiene
For cyclobutadiene, we have the same situation, but here the
rectangular structure is more stable than the square.
That is, the resonance energy does not balance the cost of
making the bond distances equal.
1.34 A
1.5x A
The reason is that the pi bonds must be orthogonalized,
forcing a nodal plane through the adjacent C atoms, causing
the energy to increase dramatically as the 1.54 distance is
reduced to 1.40A.
For benzene only one nodal plane makes the pi bond
orthogonal
to both other
bonds,
leading
to lower
cost

1985-1990 Many papers on C60, no definitive proof that it had
fullerene structure, lots of skepticism
In 1990 physicists W. Krätschmer and D.R. Huffman for the first
time produced isolable quantities of C60 by causing an arc
between two graphite rods to burn in a helium atmosphere and
extracting the carbon condensate so formed using an organic
solvent.
Then, Nature 347, 354 - 358 (27 September 1990)

R. Huffman; Solid C60: a new form of carbon
A new form of pure, solid carbon has been synthesized
consisting of a somewhat disordered hexagonal close
packing of soccer-ball-shaped C60 molecules.
Infrared spectra and X-ray diffraction studies of the molecular
packing confirm that the molecules have the anticipated
'fullerene' structure.
Mass spectroscopy shows that the C70 molecule is present
