The key step of the diolefination reaction involves a [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of the ylide to a gamma-unsaturated sulfoxide with a barrier of 9.9 kcal/mol (DeltaH298, MP2/cc-pVDZ, for the cycloheptane derivative).

The cooperativity between the O-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds has been studied by quantum chemical calculations at the MP2/6-311++G (d,p) level in gaseous phase and at the B3LYP/6-311++G (d,p) level in solution.

The bond dissociation enthalpies (BDEs) of sulfur and selenium ylides have been estimated by applying MP2/6-311++G (3df,2p)//MP2/6-31G (d,p), G3, and other computational methods.
Computed sulfoxide bond enthalpies were compared to experimental results to ensure the reliability of the computational methods before extending to related compounds.

Results of quantum chemical calculations of the double complexes of the Ura (Thy) tautomers with CH (3) COO (-) at the MP2/6-311++G (2df,pd)//B3LYP/6-311++G (d,p) level of theory proved to be incompatible with the spectral features: despite the fact that the complexes of the enolic tautomers are much closer in energy to the diketo ones as compared to isolated tautomers, the energy gap between them is such that in tautomeric equilibrium dominate diketo forms.
