Description

The heats of formation and the reactivity indices of sulfur fragments containing a small number of atoms have been calculated by the MINDO/3 semiempirical quantum-chemical method. The heats of formation obtained have been compared with the results of MNDO calculations and with experimental data. It has been shown that the open fragments have a high reactivity and that an S2 molecule in a triplet state can be formed already in the first step of the decomposition of an S8 ring
