File descriptions

Supporting_Information.pdf

"Supporting_Information.pdf" contains a detailed description of the methodologies employed in this work, as well as supplementary figures, tables, and references.

SRE.csv

"SRE.csv" is a database containing strain release energies (kcal/mol) of unique bonds of 35 molecules (81 total data points). The columns contain the following information:

Column:

0 - Name of strained molecule
1 - Name of unstrained product molecule
2 - SMILES string representation of balanced reaction to obtain strain release energy, where dots (".") are used to separate individual molecules, and a double chevron (">>") indicates the reaction arrow
3 - Bond type designation, when there are multiple unique bond types in a given molecule
4 - Strain release energy (SRE, kcal/mol)
5 - Delocalisation value for the breaking bond (2–Nocc, e)

N.B. Strain release energy is defined as the change in enthalpy (∆H in kcal/mol) at the DLPNO-CCSD(T)/def2-QZVPP//B2PLYP-D3BJ/def2-TZVP level, and 2–Nocc values (in e) at are obtained from the B2PLYP/def2-TZVP relaxed density.

mlr_models.py

"mlr_models.py" is a script to plot all figures. Multiple linear regression is carried out using the Scikit-learn Python package, and plotting is done using Matplotlib. "mlr_models.py" can either be run interactively, or to generate all plots, run:

for i in {1..21}; do echo $i | python mlr_models.py -v; done

Plots are generated inside the “pdfs” directory. Each plot contains the following:

Plot 1: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = 2-Nocc (CH3• addition)
Plot 2: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = D/D_0 (CH3• addition)
Plot 3: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = n3 (CH3• addition)
Plot 4: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0 (CH3• addition); ∆Hr vs ∆H‡
Plot 5: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0 (CH3• addition); ∆H‡ calc vs pred
Plot 6: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = 2-Nocc, x2 = (∆H0)^2 (CH3• addition)
Plot 7: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = D/D_0, x2 = (∆H0)^2 (CH3• addition)
Plot 8: y = ∆H‡, x0 = (∆r‡)^2 (CH3• addition)
Plot 9: y = (∆r‡)^2, x0 = ∆H0 (CH3• addition)
Plot 10: y = ∆r‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = 2-Nocc (CH3• addition)
Plot 11: y = ∆r‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = D/D_0 (CH3• addition)
Plot 12: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = n3 (NH2- addition)
Plot 13: y = Marcus Ea error, x0 = n3 (heterosubstitution)
Plot 14: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = (∆H0)^2 (CH3• addition)
Plot 15: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = 2-Nocc (NH2- addition)
Plot 16: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0 (cycloaddition); ∆H‡ calc vs pred
Plot 17: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = mean 2-Nocc (cycloaddition)
Plot 18: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = E_HOMO (CH3• addition)
Plot 19: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = E_LUMO (CH3• addition)
Plot 20: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = ∆E_HOMO-LUMO (CH3• addition)
Plot 21: y = ∆H‡, x0 = ∆H0, x1 = D/D_0 (NH2- addition)

Cartesian coordinates

The directory CartesianCoordinates contains all xyz files generated in this study, split into subdirectories (CCl3_addition, CH3_addition, Cycloaddition, NH2_addition, Strain_database). The numbering of molecules in “Strain_database” follows that defined in “smiles.csv” contained within the same subdirectory. Geometries were optimised at the levels of theory described in the corresponding tabs in “energies.xlsx”, the Supporting Information, and below in this readme.
