Abstract

The geometries and energies for ground and possible transition states of the quinolone (1) and pyridones (2)-(4) were calculated by the molecular-mechanics method. The calculated energy differences between ground and the lowest transition state are in good correlation (r = 0.994) with the corresponding experimental racemization energies for interconversion of enantiomers (P) half-arrow-right-over-half-arrow-left (M) in (1)-(4). However, the calculated potential energy differences do not correspond to measured differences in Gibbs energies. The fact was tentatively attributed to neglection of the entropy contribution to Gibbs energies.
