Journal ArticleDOI
Orbital interactions in metal dimer complexes
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of geometrical distortions, electronegativity, and variation of substituents on the magnetic interaction in dimeric systems is examined in detail for singly bridged L,M-X-ML, (n = 3, 4, 5); Cu~C16~ and other doubly bridging species where the bridging ligands are halogens, OR, pyridine N-oxides, oxalate, squarate; and the acetate bridged dimers C u ~ (R C 0 0 ) 4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Counterintuitive Orbital Mixing in Semiempirical and ab Initio Molecular Orbital Calculations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a modified Wolfsberg-Helmholz formula to reduce the effect of counterintuitive orbital mixing in extended Hiickel and limited basis set ab initio SCF calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ethylene complexes. Bonding, rotational barriers, and conformational preferences
TL;DR: In this paper, a lower energy pathway for this complex is found if rotation is accompanied by pseudorotation, which may be accomplished by changing the electronic or steric properties of the ligands on the metal or the ethylene.
