Lewis Acid Properties of Tetrel Tetrafluorides—The Coincidence of the σ-Hole Concept with the QTAIM Approach
Tetrel bond is analysed for a series of ZF4 (Z = C, Si, Ge) complexes with one and two NH3 or AsH3 ligands. The MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations were performed and supported by results of the Quantum Theory of “Atoms in Molecules” (QTAIM) and the Natural Bond Orbitals (NBO) approaches. The Z-tetrel atom...
