Résumé

We have synthesised several push-pull substituted conjugated polyenes and determined their accurate C-C bond lengths and charge-density distributions by utilising quantum crystallographic techniques. In a series of alkene, dienes, and triene bearing two (trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl (triflyl) groups on the terminal carbon atom, unique reversal of the bond-length alternation (BLA) order has been observed. This is a pronounced aberration from the molecular structure predicted by the Lewis-structure-based neutral resonance structure. Such reversal of BLA order has not been observed in push-pull compounds bearing conventional electron-withdrawing groups such as carbonyl and cyano groups instead of triflyl groups. Bonding behaviour of both normal and reversed bond length alternating systems has been revealed by complementary bonding analysis using several bond descriptors based on the experimentally fitted wavefunctions.

Here, the total RGBI is used because in each bond, the ionic bond contribution is negligibly small and the total values are close to the covalent RGBI. Full details of RGBI analysis are shown in the Supporting Information.
In the case of non-push-pull diene 2 b, a lone electron pair ELI domain on C1 atom is not obtained and NELI of the C1−C2 bonding basin was notably large (3.553 e). See, Ref. [10].
