A Theoretical Study on the Aromaticity of 5-methylcytosine tautomers in the gas phase

Abstract

The armaticity of 5 methylcytosine tautomers in the gas phase has been studied and the chemical structures of related tautomers are investigated . The electronic energy, enthalpy and free energy of each tautomer are also estimated at the B3LYP/6-31 G* // B3LYP/6-31 G* and MP2 / 6-31 G* // MP2 / 6-31 G* Levels
