Abstract

This work presents experimental investigations of nucleophilic substitution reactions and quantummechanical structure optimizations of molecular aggregates. This studies are performed to reveal detailed informations for the size and species selectivity of nucleophilic substitutions.

The first part deals with experiments on mixed van der Waals aggregates. In a supersonic jet clusters of difluorobenzene and ammonia are prepared and ionized via resonant two-photon absorption (R2PI). In a time-of-flight mass spectrometer the produced cations are detected. By this method the influence of solvatation and size dependence is characterized.

The second part deals with ab initio HF calculations on 1,n-difluorobenzene·NH3 and 1,n-difluorobenzene·(NH3)2 and the corresponding cations. Structures of the van der Waals clusters were fully minimized for inter- and intra-molecular degrees of freedom. The results of these calculations are expected to deliver new aspects of the role of isomers of clusters in nucleophilic substitution reactions.We evaluated different stable cluster isomers which could be responsible for the substitution reaction.

The most important results of the substitution reactions in ionized difluorobenzene/ammonia clusters may be summarized as follows: The reactivity does not depend on the position of the two fluoro-substituents at the aromatic ring. With all of the three difluorobenzenes a fluoroaniline cation and a ammonia dimer cation are observed as the products of the same precursor (1,n-difluorobenzene.(NH3)2)+.
