โฆ Synopsis
The equilibrium geometries and relative stabilities of C6oH ~2n ( n = 1-5 ) molecules in Th symmetry are studied at the Hartree-Fock level of theory employing basis sets of double-zeta quality. Hydrogens were allowed to attach to carbon atoms both from the outside (exo-hydrogenation) and the inside (endo-hydrogenation) of the C6o cage. In the totally exo-hydrogenated case, it is found that C6oH36 and C6oH4a are the most stable molecules in the C6oH~2n series. For C6oH6o only, a lower energy isomer is found when 12 H atoms are placed inside the C~o cage. The total energy of this form of C6oH6o is much lower than that of the previously predicted Ih structure, although it may not be easily accessible due to a large barrier for H penetration of C6o.

Ab initiu methods are now known to reproduce satisfactorily the nuclear magnetic shielding for various first-and second-row nuclei. In this paper, calculated values for the '19Sn shielding in SnH,, Sn(CH,), and SnCI, are presented and compared with the recently established absolute shielding scale.
