Abstract
Comprehensive computational investigations were carried out to understand the electronic and ligand properties of skeletally substituted β-diketiminate stabilized Al(I) and Ga(I) carbenoids as well as to probe their potential in small molecule activation. All of the proposed group 13 carbenoids possess a stable singlet ground state, and the majority of them have a significantly enhanced electron donation ability compared to the experimentally reported systems. The evaluation of the energetics associated with the splitting of various strong bonds such as H-H, N-H, C-F, and B-H by these carbenoids indicates that many of the proposed Al and Ga carbenoids may be considered as suitable candidates for small molecule activation.
