- Title
London Dispersion Effects on the Stability of Heavy Tetrel Molecules.
- Authors
Mears, Kristian L.; Power, Philip P.
- Abstract
London dispersion (LD) interactions, which stem from long‐range electron correlations arising from instantaneously induced dipoles can occur between neighboring atoms or molecules, for example, between H atoms within ligand C−H groups. These interactions are currently of interest as a new method of stabilizing long bonds and species with unusual oxidation states. They can also limit reactivity by installing LD enhanced groups into organic frameworks or ligand substituents. Here, we address the most recent advances in the design of LD enhanced ligands, the sterically counterintuitive structures that can be generated and the consequences that these interactions can have on the structures and reactivity of sterically crowded heavy group 14 species.
