Abstract

The spatial and electronic structures of trimethoxyaluminum complexes with neutral molecules are calculated by the MP2/6-31(2d,p) method using the PC GAMESS-Firefly program package. The main characteristics of aluminum bonds in these molecules are determined by AIM and NBO methods. It is shown that these bonds can be characterized as the bonds between the atoms with closed shells.
