For comparative purpose, both relativistic and non-relativistic calculations have been performed. The nature of the interaction between the [（H20）2] and [M（gly）2] fragments was investigated using energy decomposition analysis, Hirshfeld atomic charge variation, molecular orbital considerations and bond order decomposition analysis, respectively. Results reveal that the [（H20）：]-[M（gly）2] interaction lies from the hydrogen bridge interaction between these fragments. The strength of the bonding increases in the order Ni2＋ 〉 Pd2＋ 〉 Pt2＋ while the relativistic correction tends to strengthen the [（H2O）2---[M（gly）2] bond in the order Ni 〈 Pd 〈 Pt.展开更多
