Noble Gas Binding Ability of an Au(I) Cation Stabilized by a Frustrated Lewis Pair: A DFT Study

The noble gas (Ng) binding ability of a monocationic [(FLP)Au]+ species has been investigated by a computational study. Here, the monocationic [(FLP)Au]+ species is formed by coordination of Au(I) cation with the phosphorous (Lewis base) and the boron (Lewis acid) centers of a frustrated Lewis pair...
