Our ab initio all-electron fully relativistic Dirac–Fock (DF) and Dirac–Fock–Breit–Gaunt (DFBG) and nonrelativistic (NR) Hartree–Fock (HF) calculations for seaborgium hexacarbonyl Sg(CO)6 predict atomization energies (Ae) of 68.81, 69.28, and 67.69 eV, respectively, at the corresponding optimized oc...

description Our ab initio all-electron fully relativistic Dirac–Fock (DF) and Dirac–Fock–Breit–Gaunt (DFBG) and nonrelativistic (NR) Hartree–Fock (HF) calculations for seaborgium hexacarbonyl Sg(CO)6 predict atomization energies (Ae) of 68.81, 69.28, and 67.69 eV, respectively, at the corresponding optimized octahedral geometry. However, our DF, DFBG, and NR HF calculations for the isomer Sg(OC)6 yield atomization energies of 64.30, 64.77, and 62.62 eV, respectively, at the optimized geometry for this species. The optimized Sg–C and C–O bond distances (in Å) for octahedral Sg(CO)6 using our DF (NR) calculations are 2.15 (2.32) and 1.11 (1.11), respectively. However, the optimized Sg–O and O–C bond distances (in Å) for the isomer octahedral Sg(OC)6 obtained with our DF (NR) calculations are 2.80 (2.73) and 1.10 (1.11), respectively. Our prediction of the greater stability of Sg(CO)6 isomer at both the relativistic (DF and DFBG) and the NR HF levels of theory lends further support to the detection of Sg(CO)6 in the state-of-the-art gas-phase experimental studies of the carbonyl complex of seaborgium reported by Even et al. [Science 345(6203), 1491 (2014)].
