Abstract
The electronic structure and preferred conformations of F3P·BH3 and F2HP·BH3 are investigated in the framework of the CNDO/2 approximation. In complete agreement with microwave data, the staggered conformations are predicted to be the most stable ones. The barriers to internal rotation are in good agreement with experimental values (F3P·BH3: calc. = 3.03 kcal/mole, exp. = 3.24 ± 0.15 kcal/mole; F2HP·BH3: calc. = 3.63 kcal/mole, exp. = 4.05 ± 0.45 kcal/mole) and a bicentric energy partitioning shows that the variations of the total energy are completely reflected by the only variation of the interaction energy between phosphorus and H atoms bonded to boron. The analysis of the electron densities reveals the importance of the 3s(P) → 2px(B) transfer in the formation of the co-ordination. Finally, the computed dipole moment value and direction agree with corresponding experimental data.
