摘要
A set of DFT methods (Xa, HFB, S-VWN, B-LYP, B-HandH and Becke3-LYP) has been used for the calculation of the transition states and energy barriers of the Diels-Alder reaction of ethylene with buta-1,3-diene and cyclopentadiene. The pure DFT methods overestimate the bond lengths, while the hybrid methods give values much-closer to those obtained by conventional ab initio methods. The ratio of the sigma-forming bonds to the pi-breaking bonds is in excellent correlation to the predicted electronic energy barriers for these reactions. The local spin density approximation (S-VWN) fails completely giving a negative value for the classical energy barrier height for the addition of ethylene to buta-1,3-diene. On the other hand, the vibrational adiabatic barrier heights predicted by B-LYP/6-31G(**) and the hybrid Becke3-LYP/6-31G(**) theoretical models are in excellent agreement with available experimental data for both reactions.
