Abstract

A theoretical analysis of the haptotropic rearrangements involving thiophene and [Rh(PH₃)₃]⁺ is presented. This haptotropic rearrangement is involved in the C-S bond activation of thiophene by d⁸-ML₃ fragments. In this study, two theory levels, the second order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) and density-functional theory (DFT-B3LYP), are employed. The pathway discussed in this paper connects an η⁴ coordination mode with an η³ one. The results suggest that for the fragment studied in this work, an η³ precursor of the C-S cleavage is preferred over the other one proposed in the literature.
