Toward a More Rational Design of the Direct Synthesis of Aniline: A Density Functional Theory Study

This article uses plane-wave density functional theory calculations to investigate the direct amination of benzene catalyzed by a Ni(111) surface to explore the reaction intermediates and to understand the role of nickel in this reaction.

Polarizable ab initio QM/MM Study of the Reaction Mechanism of N-tert-Butyloxycarbonylation of Aniline in [EMIm][BF4] (open access)

Polarizable ab initio QM/MM Study of the Reaction Mechanism of N-tert-Butyloxycarbonylation of Aniline in [EMIm][BF4]

This article presents the use of AMOEBA-based polarizable ab initio AM/MM simulations to investigate the reaction mechanism of the N-tert-butoxycarbonylation of aniline in a water/1-ethyl, 3-methyl imidazolium/tetrafluoroborate mixture.
