  • Beschreibung: AbstractThree diazo‐substituted cyclopropane compounds, which have been suggested as new potential high energy compounds, were studied employing the B3LYP‐DFT/6‐31G(d,p) method. Geometries were optimized. Distributed multipole analysis, computed from the B3LYP‐DFT/6‐31G(d,p) density matrix, was used to describe the details of the molecular charge distribution of the three molecules. It was verified that electron withdrawing from the C ring atoms and charge build‐up on the N atoms bonded to the ring increased with the number of diazo groups. These effects were related to increased sensitivity to impact and easiness of CN bond breaking in the three compounds. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2008
