Abstract

The modeling of the molecular and electronic structures of the following mono- and biosmium complexes of fullerene C60 was performed by quantum chemical methods (MNDO/PM3 and DFT/PBE): (η2-C60)[Os(PPh3)2(CO)CNMe], (η22-C60)[Os(PPh3)2(CO)(CNMe)]2, (η2-C60)[Os(PH3)2(CO)H], (η22-C60)[Os(PH3)2(CO)H]2, (η2-C60)[Os(PH3)2(CO)CNMe], (η22-C60)[Os(PH3)2(CO)CNMe]2, and (5-C60H5)[Os(C5H5)], (5, 5-C60H10)[Os(C5H5)]2.The osmium atoms in the first six complexes are η2-coordinated by fullerene C60. In the last two complexes, the η5-coordination mode is observed. The structures of the radical anions of these complexes were calculated. The energies of the frontier orbitals were evaluated. The acceptor properties of the complexes are discussed. The electron affinities were estimated in two ways: from the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and as the energy difference between the neutral molecule and its radical anion.
