c) The radical cation of benzocaine can fragment via two possible cleavages of the bonds adjacent to the carbonyl. The B3LYP energies of each of the optimized structures of the radical and cation fragments of both possible a-cleavages are provided below. Calculate the relative energy (kcal/mol) of each set of products below. 1 Hartree = 627.509608 kcal/mol (8 pts) Fragmentation A H₂N B3LYP Energy (Hartrees) B3LYP Energy (kcal/mol) H₂N Fragmentation B B3LYP Energy (Hartrees) B3LYP Energy (kcal/mol) H₂N -400.1953543 Total Energy of Products of Fragmentation A (kcal/mol) Relative Energy of Products (kcal/mol) H₂N -287.0041815 Total Energy of Products of Fragmentation B (kcal/mol) Relative Energy of Products (kcal/mol) + o -154.4258599 -267.5483237 c) The radical cation of benzocaine can fragment via two possible cleavages of the bonds adjacent to the carbonyl.
