Compounds with (NHC)→E coordination bond are being generated and their chemistry is being explored over the past 15 years (NHC= N-heterocyclic carbenes, E = main group elements). Many examples of species with N-heterocyclic olefins (NHOs) are known, which exhibit umpolung chemistry. Increasing number of chemical species, which carry NHC as a functional unit, are being reported. There is a need to understand their electronic structure. Alkylated imidazole oximes (cationic, found useful in medicinal chemistry) ((NHC)-C(H)=N-OH(+)) carry NHC unit as a functional group. Similarly, the corresponding nitroso-N-heterocyclic olefins ((NHC)=C(R)-N=O) also carry NHC as a functional unit. It is important to establish the interaction between the NHC unit and the rest part of the molecule in these species. Density functional (DFT) study has been carried out to explore the electronic structure details of a few oximes and nitroso NHOs. The results indicate that a structure with NHC→C coordination interaction can be considered as one of the resonance structures of these species.

The electronic properties of BaCuSi 2 O 6 are studied by band structure calculation based on the density functional theory within local density approximation. We find that the electronic structure and properties are dominated by the layered character of the crystal structure arising from the in plane Cu 3d and O 2p electron interactions.

The electronic structure and properties of Ni(B<sub>3</sub>N<sub>3</sub>HnF<sub>2-n</sub>) (CO)<sub>2</sub> (n = 0-2) complexes have been explored using hybrid density functional B3LYP theory. Calculations indicate B-fluorinated isomers are more stable, less polarizable, and harder than N-fluorinated isomers. The aromatic nature of the borazyne rings have been analyzed by nucleus independent chemical shift (NICS). The atoms in molecules (AIM) analysis indicates that Ni-C<sub>carbonyl</sub> bonds distance is well correlated with the electron density of critical point (ρ<sub>rcp</sub>) in all species

The electronic structure and properties of the osmabenzene and <em>para</em> substituted osmabenzenes have been explored using the hybrid density functional mpw1pw91 theory. The substituent effects of F, CH<sub>3</sub>, OH, CN, NO<sub>2</sub>, CHO and COOH in <em>para</em> osmabenzenes complexes were studied. Basic measures of aromatic character were derived from the structure and nucleus-independent chemical shift (NICS). Quantum theory of atoms in molecules analysis (QTAIM) indicates a correlation between ρ(Os-C) bonds and the electron density of bond critical point in all species.
