• Experimental Observation: Reactions involving Hydrogen transfer go faster than Deuterium transfer, which is faster still than Tritium.
• Hydrogen, deuterium, and tritium have different masses but behave the same electronically.

Energy
• Getting from point A to point B requires Energy.
ΔE
• Deuterium sits lower in energy than Hydrogen, and Tritium sits lower still.
H
D
T
• This means that Hydrogen requires the least ΔE to get over the energy barrier.
• The result is that Hydrogen will transfer the fastest, and these relative rates can be experimentally observed.

• Professor Heinz Koch began studying the reaction of certain alkenes with methoxide ion.

• Proton Transfer: Can study isotope effects…
• However: No isotope effects were observed!

• Organic Chemistry: Make Unexpected Observations
• Cannot observe proton, deuteron, and trition transfer during reactions!
• Can determine kinetic isotope effects through chemical kinetics.
• Physical Chemistry: Model Unexpected Observations• Cannot easily determine reaction rates and kinetic isotope effects.
• Can observe reaction pathways, intermediates, product analysis, and relative energetics!

• Interested only in proton exchange right now.
Too Difficult to Calculate!
• Using b3lyp/6-31g+(d,p) level of theory for optimization to support energy diagram.

• Find an accurate Transition State.• Does the TS connect the EC and HB?
• Build up the solvent system.
• Four Solvating methanol molecules…
• Use solvent wrapping technique.
• Try different solvents.
• Try different carbanion systems.
• Model the actual system.
