✦ Synopsis

Metal-Metal Bonding in d 1 d 1 and d 2 d 2 Bioctahedral Dimer Systems: A Density Functional Study of Face-Shared M 2 X 9 3-(M: Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta) Complexes.

-The electronic and geometric structures calculated for the d 1 d 1 (M: Ti, Zr, Hf) and d 2 d 2 (M: V, Nb, Ta) complexes of title are compared to those obtained previously for the analogous d 3 d 3 (M: Cr, Mo, W) system in order to investigate periodic trends in metal-metal bonding.
