Abstract

Structural and thermodynamic characteristics of molecular donor-acceptor complexes of BrCl, Br2, IBr with nitrogen-containing Lewis bases are computed by using quantum chemical method M06-2X/def2-TZVP in the gas phase, benzene and acetonitrile solutions in the framework of SMD model. It is shown that the polarity of the solvent significantly influences the structural features and stabilization of the complex with respect to the dissociation process. In case of BrCl complexes with all studied Lewis bases the three center four electron N–Br–Cl bond is realized in acetonitrile solution.
