Notes:
Ab initio MO calculations have been performed for neutral and cationic C2H2F2 structures. Olefinic and carbene structures are investigated for the neutral isomers, while olefinic, carbene, and fluoronium-type cations are found. Stability orders and rotational barriers are discussed in terms of orbital and Coulomb interaction. Contrary to previous studies, the higher stability of the geminal isomers is interpreted to be caused by Coulomb attraction.
