ABSTRACT
The metal-involving Ch···M chalcogen bond and the conventional Ch···O chalcogen bond between ChX2 (Ch = Se, Te; X = CCH, CN) acting as a Lewis acid and M(acac)2 (M = Pd, Pt; Hacac = acetylacetone) acting as a Lewis base were studied by density functional theory calculations. It has been observed that the nucleophilicity of the PtII complexes is higher than that of the corresponding PdII complexes. As a result, the PtII complexes tend to exhibit a more negative interaction energy and larger orbital interaction. The strength of the chalcogen bond increases with the increase of the chalcogen atom and the electronegativity of the substituent on the Lewis acid and vice versa. The metal-involving chalcogen bond shows a typical weak closed-shell noncovalent interaction in the (HCC)2Ch···M(acac)2 complexes, while it exhibits a partially covalent nature in the (NC)2Ch···M(acac)2 complexes. The conventional Ch···O chalcogen bond displays the character of a weak noncovalent interaction, and its strength is generally weaker than that of metal-involving Ch···M interactions. It could be argued that the metal-involving chalcogen bond is primarily determined by the correlation term, whereas the conventional chalcogen bond is mainly governed by the electrostatic interaction.
