Dual Geometry Schemes in Tetrel Bonds: Complexes between TF<sub>4</sub> (T = Si, Ge, Sn) and Pyridine Derivatives

When an N-base approaches the tetrel atom of TF<sub>4</sub> (T = Si, Ge, Sn) the latter molecule deforms from a tetrahedral structure in the monomer to a trigonal bipyramid. The base can situate itself at either an axial or equatorial position, leading to two different equilibrium geomet...
