The high reactive site and the unusually short Sc‐C bond of the scandium phosphinoalkylidene complex, an explanation from first‐principles calculation

Abstract: The recently synthesized first scandium phosphinoalkylidene complex has attracted extensive attentions for its high chemical activity around the unusually short Sc‐C bond. Here, we report our studies on this issue by using the first‐principles method. Our analyses establish a triple‐bond picture, d‐p (π, σ, σ), for the short Sc‐C bonding interactions. The calculated valence Bader charge shows that the specific C atom on the Sc‐C bond is highly charged, which makes the C atom on the Sc‐C bond an active nucleoph… Show more
