The Dalton quantum chemistry program system

Kestutis Aidas, +83 more
TL;DR: Dalton is a powerful general‐purpose program system for the study of molecular electronic structure at the Hartree–Fock, Kohn–Sham, multiconfigurational self‐consistent‐field, Møller–Plesset, configuration‐interaction, and coupled‐cluster levels of theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anharmonicity in Unimolecular Reactions

TL;DR: In this article, the in-line vibrations of a linear, symmetric, triatomic molecule having Morse bond-stretching potentials were studied numerically and the significance of the results for unimolecular rate theory was discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Are N-heterocyclic carbenes "better" ligands than phosphines in main group chemistry? A theoretical case study of ligand-stabilized E2 molecules, L-E-E-L (L = NHC, phosphine; E = C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, N, P, As, Sb, Bi).

TL;DR: Predicting whether it is possible to stabilize the elusive E(2) molecule via formation of L-E-L beyond the few known examples and if the ligand set for this class of compounds can be extended from the NHC to the phosphine class of ligands is predicted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iridium Complexes of N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands: Investigation into the Energetic Requirements for Efficient Electrogenerated Chemiluminescence

TL;DR: A series of five heteroleptic Ir(III) complexes of the general form Ir(ppy)2(C∧C:) have been prepared as discussed by the authors, which arise from the cyclometalated phenyl ring of the NHC ligand being unsubstituted or having electron-donating (OMe and Me) or electron-withdrawing (Cl and F) groups at the 2-and 4 positions of the ring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in the field of main-group mono- and diatomic "allotropes" stabilised by neutral ligands.

TL;DR: This Minireview focuses on the significant developments of the past two years within the d-block, and carbene ligands are clearly the star of the show, highlighting their importance within the p-block as well.
