Abstract
Very recently, a thermochemically stable Zn(III) complex has been predicted by Samanta and Jena (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2012, 134, 8400-8403). In contrast to their conclusions we show here by quantum chemical calculations that (a) Zn(AuF(6))(3) is not a thermochemically feasible compound, and (b) even if it could be made, it would not represent a Zn(III) oxidation state by any valid definition.
