Abstract

Complete optimization of classical and nonclassical allyllithium structures at the RHF/STO-3G level with subsequent RHF/4-31G and RHF/6-31G calculations confirms the Cs, bridged species to have the lowest energy. The allyl fragment of this structure is significantly distorted from a planar arrangement in order to enhance bonding between the allyl anion HOMO (on C(1), C(3)) and the lithium p-orbital with axis parallel to C(1)-C(3).
