The Lewis acidity of boron trihalides revisited

The relative Lewis acidity of boron trihalides is analyzed within the framework of modern density functional theory using larger basis sets that include both polarization and diffuse functions. Concepts such as the strength of the B-X pπ bonding and vertical electron affinities, as well as geometry...

La acidez de Lewis relativa de los trihaluros de boro es analizada a la luz de la teoría del funcional de la densidad moderna utilizando además funciones base de calidad triple-zeta aumentadas con funciones de polarización y difusas. Conceptos como fuerza de enlace entre orbitales atómicos pπ y afinidades electrónicas verticales de los trihaluros aislados, así como la geometría y energética de los aductos formados con amoníaco son revisados para analizar críticamente las nociones utilizadas frecuentemente en cursos de Química Inorgánica Básica para explicar la mencionada acidez de Lewis relativa.
