Early versus late transition metals. Electronic structure of nido-2-CpMLnB4H8, CpMLn = CpTaCl2, CpWH3 and CpCo
The mono-metal analog of B5H9, 2-CpCoB4H8, is used as a benchmark for the interpretation of molecular orbital calculations on 2-CpWH3B4H8 and 2-CpTaCl2B4H8, all of which have square pyramidal cluster cores. The latter two molecules are shown to obey the prescription of the cluster electron counting...
