Calculations of products of the reaction of magnesium with carbon
tetrachloride by the perturbation theory
Abstract
Accurate ab initio methods of quantum chemistry (MP4//MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ)
are used to compute the structures of possible reaction
products of the reaction Mg + CCl4. It is found that
along with the usual Grignard reagent CCl3MgCl, a formation of the compound CCl2MgCl2 with lower energy is expected. A molecule of the bi-magnesium complex CCl3MgMgCl
presents another stable compound of unusual structure. Realization
of perturbation theory methods in the program PC GAMESS is briefly described.
