Potential surfaces for the as yet unknown mol. 1,4-dihydropyrazine I have been calcd. by the MNDO method. The configurations at the nitrogen atoms and the folding angle of the six-membered ring in its boat conformation were chosen as crit. geometrical variables. Nitrogen and ring inversion barriers were rather small, and geometry optimization yielded a shallow energy min. at a flat boat conformation with diequatorial N-hydrogens. The MNDO geometry optimization was also applied to the radical cation I°+ and to the dication I2+, both of which were calcd. to be planar. The results are discussed with respect to effects in related cyclic systems. on SciFinder(R)
