Description

Molecular mechanics force field for metallocarboranes was developed. Conformational calculations of metallocene sandwich complexes analogs [RR'C2B4H4]2M, R and R'=Me3Si or Me, M = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb were undertaken. The calculation showed that short metal-ligand distances (M = Si, Ge) correspond to parallel-sandwich conformations whereas bent-sandwich complexes are characterized by longer distances (M = Sn, Pb). 24 refs.; 3 figs.; 4 tabs
