Abstract

(Chemical Equation Presented) Weighing in: DFT calculations suggest that the recently characterized phenyl hydride bridged complex of chromium (see picture, left; Cr red, N blue, C dark gray, H light gray) is more stable than its inverse sandwich isomer (right), thus providing a simple, though unexpected explanation to the high stability of the former compound. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
