Ab initio molecular orbital calculations have been used to investigate the structures and the transition states of 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions between benzonitrile oxide with ethylene, cyclopentene, acrylonitrile and tetracyanoethylene in heptane and water: calculations reveal enhanced hydrogen bonding of a water molecule to the transition states for the cycloaddition 1,3-dipolar of reaction of benzonitrile oxide with cyclopentene, the optimal interaction energies being 0.7 kcal/mol more favourable for hydrogen bonding to the oxygen atom in the transition states than for the reactants.

Ab initio calculations are performed to investigate the effect of water on the 1,3-intramolecular hydrogen rearrangement in the [Formula: see text] isoelectronic series, for X, Y = CH2, NH or O, by modeling with a single H2O molecule. The geometries for the complexes are optimized at both the 3-21G and 6-31G** basis set levels. MP2 and some MP4 calculations are performed to take into account the correlation effects, and ZPV corrections are calculated at the MNDO level. The results show that the water molecule has a significant effect on the molecules in which hydrogen bonds can be formed or partially formed. The "solvent effects" are also examined using the self-consistent reaction-field (SCRF) approach. A combination of supermolecule and SCRF approach appears to work well at predicting the effect of solvent on relative stabilities and barriers. Key words: tautomerism, ab initio, 1,3-hydrogen rearrangement, solvent effects.
