Ab initio calculations have been performed on complexes of CFCl3 with SO2. Ten complexes were found stable, the interaction energies that reflect their stability were corrected by the basis set superposition error and the correction of zero-point energy. The natures of these interactions were investigated by the analysis of natural bond orbital and the atoms in molecules. The results from theoretical calculation indicated that there were the interactions of Cl...O, F...O, Cl...S and F...S between CFCl3 and SO2, furthermore, the non-covalent bonds of Cl...O and Cl...S were the major interaction forces, which provided some data and information for studying the environment problem such as greenhouse effect relevant to CFCl3 and SO2.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
