Abstract
SC-MEH-MO calculations with electron repulsion correlation and configuration interaction included, have been carried out on Sm(Cp*)2 in both its linear and bent geometrical forms. Except for relatively small factors, there are virtually no major differences in the electronic structures of the two comfomers. In both cases, the bonding is found is to be very clost to being nearly totally ionic. An estimation of the ionic bond energy is made and discussed. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
