Journal ArticleDOI
Dual Geometry Schemes in Tetrel Bonds: Complexes between TF₄ (T = Si, Ge, Sn) and Pyridine Derivatives.
TL;DR: When an N-base approaches the tetrel atom of TF4 the latter molecule deforms from a tetrahedral structure in the monomer to a trigonal bipyramid, leading to two different equilibrium geometries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of monomer deformation on the competition between two types of σ-holes in tetrel bonds.
TL;DR: It requires more energy for the TF3C6H2R3 to deform into the geometry it adopts within the T-C complex than within its T-F counterpart, and there is consequently a balance between the overall binding energies of the two competing sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chalcogen bonding of two ligands to hypervalent YF4 (Y = S, Se, Te, Po).
TL;DR: The ability of two NH3 ligands to engage in simultaneous chalcogen bonds to a hypervalent YF4 molecule, with Y = S, Se, Te, Po, is assessed via quantum calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Triel-Bonded Complexes between TrR3 (Tr=B, Al, Ga; R=H, F, Cl, Br, CH3) and Pyrazine
TL;DR: The value of the maximum of the electrostatic potential correlates poorly with Eint, attributed in part to monomer distortions upon complexation.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Stability of Interactions between Pairs of Anions – Complexes of MCl3− (M=Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) with Pyridine and CN−
TL;DR: The ability of the central M atom of the MCl3 - anion, with M=Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, to engage in a noncovalent bond with an approaching nucleophile is gauged by ab initio methods.
