✦ Synopsis


We have performed molecular orbital calculations to study the relativistic effects on chemical bonding in hexafluoride molecules such as SF,, SeFs, MoF,, TeF,, WFs, and UF6, using the nonrelatiyistic and relativistic discrete-variational XLY methods. The atomionumber dependence of the relativistic effects was examined by means of bond overlap population analysis. It is found that the relativistic effects become remarkably important for the molecules containing the elements with atomic number larger than 50.
