The Charge Capacitance of the Chemical Bond: Application to Bonds Containing Metals

Holt, Asbjörn LU ; Karlström, Gunnar LU and Roos, Björn LU (2009) In International Journal of Quantum Chemistry 109(3). p.618-628
Abstract
The charge capacitance of metal containing complexes are studied. For molecules with multiple bonding between the metal atoms it is found that the charge capacitance is correlated to the maximum bond order, natural bond order, and to some extent the effective bond order. Furthermore the charge capacitance of some methylidene metal dihydride complexes are studied. These molecules have agostic interactions of varying strength, and it is concluded that this strength is very well reflected in the charge capacitances of the systems. In accordance with the definition of agostic interactions it is therefor concluded that the charge capacitance holds information about the strength of covalent interactions. The effect therefore on the agostic... (More)

In accordance with the definition of agostic interactions it is therefor concluded that the charge capacitance holds information about the strength of covalent interactions. The effect therefore on the agostic interactions upon substitution of one of the hydrogen atoms with fluorine in the methylidene metal complexes is studied, and found to reduce the agostic interactions. It is also demonstrated that there is an agostic interaction in an ArCrCrAr complex. The distance dependence of the charge capacitance is also discussed. (C) 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
