Title: A heterometallic [Mn9Ni2] cluster consisting of the [M4(μ3-O)3(μ3-Cl)]+ cubane and [MnIII3(μ3-O)4]+ “V-shaped” sub-units appearing in the giant [Mn84] and [Mn70] compounds and its [Mn9CoIII2] analogue

  1. The tetrel bond (TB) between 1,2-benzisothiazol-3-one-2-TF3-1,1-dioxide (T = C, Si) and the O atom of pyridine-1-oxide (PO) and its derivatives (PO-X, X = H, NO2, CN, F, CH3, OH, OCH3, NH2, and Li) is examined by quantum chemical means. The Si∙∙∙O TB is quite strong, with interaction energies approaching a maximum of nearly 70 kcal/mol, while the C∙∙∙O TB is an order of magnitude weaker, with interaction energies between 2.0 and 2.6 kcal/mol. An electron-withdrawing substituent on the Lewis base weakens this TB, while an electron-donating group has the opposite effect. The SiF3 group transfers roughly halfway between the N of the acid and the O of the base without the aid of cooperative effects from a third entity.

  2. Despite the interest in sulfur monoxide (SO) among astrochemists, spectroscopists, inorganic chemists, and organic chemists, its interaction with water remains largely unexplored. We report the first high level theoretical geometries for the two minimum energy complexes formed by sulfur monoxide and water, and we report energies using basis sets as large as aug-cc-pV(Q+d)Z and correlation effects through perturbative quadruple excitations. One structure of SO⋯H 2 O is hydrogen bonded and the other chalcogen bonded. The hydrogen bonded complex has an electronic energy of −2.71 kcal mol −1 and a zero kelvin enthalpy of −1.67 kcal mol −1 , while the chalcogen bonded complex has an electronic energy of −2.64 kcal mol −1 and a zero kelvin enthalpy of −2.00 kcal mol −1 . We also report the transition state between the two structures, which lies below the SO⋯H 2 O dissociation limit, with an electronic energy of −1.26 kcal mol −1 and an enthalpy of −0.81 kcal mol −1 . These features are much sharper than for the isovalent complex of O 2 and H 2 O, which only possesses one weakly bound minimum, so we further analyze the structures with open-shell SAPT0. We find that the interactions between O 2 and H 2 O are uniformly weak, but the SO⋯H 2 O complex surface is governed by the superior polarity and polarizability of SO, as well as the diffuse electron density provided by sulfur's extra valence shell.
