Regium-π vs Cation-π Interactions in M2 and MCl (M = Cu, Ag and Au) Complexes with Small Aromatic Systems: An ab Initio Study

Regium-π vs Cation-π Interactions in M2 and MCl (M = Cu, Ag and Au) Complexes with Small Aromatic Systems: An ab Initio Study

In this study we have theoretically analyzed (RI-MP2/def2-TZVP) the ability of metal moieties involving elements from group IB (Cu, Ag and Au) to establish either regium-π or cation-π interactions with π-systems of different electronic nature. More precisely, we have used M2 (ox...
