Abstract

The presence of an NO 2 substituent is found to eliminate the negative electrostatic potentials associated with the “bent” CC bonds cyclopropane. This is presumably due in large part to a rearrangement of electronics charge caused by the nitro group, as is shown by electronic density difference plots. Bond path calculations reveal bent bonds in nitrocyclopropane that are very similar to those in cycloprophane.
