Our cal- culations revealed two possible structures for Call2 in CaH2..,HY complexes: linear (I) and bent (II). The bond lengths, interac- tion energies, and strengths for H...H interactions obtained by both MP2 and B3LYP methods are quite close to each other. It was found that the interaction energy decreases with increasing electron density at the Ca-H bond critical point. At- om-in-molecule (AIM) results show that for all of Ca-H...H-Y interactions considered here, the Laplacian of the electron densi- ty at the H--.H bond critical point is positive, indicating the electrostatic nature of these Ca-H...H-Y dihydrogen bonded systems.展开更多

The results confirm that the strength of dihydrogen bonding increases in the following order of proton donors: C(sp3)-H〈C(sp2)-H〈C(sp)-H and chlorine substituents enhance the C-H…H interaction. In the majority of the complexes with a cyclic structure, the Mg-H proton-accepting bond is more sensitive to the surroundings than C-H proton-donating bond. The nature of the electrostatic interaction in these C-H…H dihydrogen bonds was also unveiled by means of the atoms in mo- lecules(AIM) analysis. The natural bond orbital(NBO) analysis suggests that the charge transfer in the cyclic com- plexes is characteristic of dual-channel. The direction of the net charge transfer in the cyclic complexes is contrary to that previously found in dihydrogen bonded systems.展开更多
