Quantum chemical calculations were carried out to establish the half-sandwich structural behaviour between heavier group-14 elements (Si-Pb) and neutral Be3 ring. The proposed complexes are found to be global minima on the potential energy surface. Quantum chemical investigation revealed that the complexes found possess high bond dissociation energy and also favorable thermodynamics of their formation. The complexes were also found to possess significant aromatic behaviour. In addition, the half-sandwich complexes were found to possess promising chemical properties to be useful for potential H2 storage material under reversible conditions.

Abstract Sandwich complexes find their interests among the chemists after the breakthrough discovery of ferrocene. Since then, a number of sandwich and half sandwich complexes were predicted and synthesized. Herein, we have theoretically proposed a series of half-sandwich complexes involving a neutral Be3 ring and transition metal. Quantum chemical calculations have shown that the proposed complexes are quite stable involving high bond dissociation energies. The thermodynamics of their formation is also favorable. The Be3 ring in all cases posses dual aromaticity which has been ascertained based on magnetic as well as topological feature of electron density.

The bis(2-pyridyl)methane ligand can support [Cp*Rh] complexes (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) in the Rh(iii) and Rh(ii) oxidation states. Structural and reactivity studies demonstrate significant differences between these complexes and notable analogues bearing the related dimethylbis(2-pyridyl)methane ligand.

Abstract. We have developed a new multi-step strategy for quantum chemical calculations on atmospherically relevant cluster structures that makes calculation for large clusters affordable with a good accuracy-to-computational effort ratio. We have applied this strategy to evaluate the relevance of ternary ion induced nucleation; we have also performed calculations for neutral ternary nucleation for comparison. The results for neutral ternary nucleation agree with previous results, and confirm the important role of ammonia in enhancing the growth of sulfuric acid clusters. On the other hand, we have found that ammonia does not enhance the growth of ionic sulfuric acid clusters. The results also confirm that ion-induced nucleation is a barrierless process at high altitudes, but at ground level there exists a barrier due to the presence of a local minimum on the free energy surface.
