✦ Synopsis
Localized molecular orbitals (LMOs) for several octahedral complexes are presented. Wavefunctions are calculated within the PRDDO approximations and localized by the Boys criterion. Complexes of general formula (NH3),(CO)6-,M, M = Cro or Mn' and x = 1, 2, or 3 illustrate the general trends for carbonyl complexes. Weak to moderate .rr-bonding results in three equivalent inner shell LMOs dominantly of metal 3s,3p and 3d character but highly delocalized to the carbonyls. These three LMOs flank the M-CO bond axis. Other .rr back-bonding situations result in metal-ligand double bonds which are nonequivalent and have u-T separability [(NH,),(py)Mn'] and also equivalent double bonds [(NH3MNO)Cr'1.
