Description

Geometry optimised structures and refined single point energies using the geometry optimised structures. Gaussian 16 was employed to understand the reaction profile for the formation of the 5-member nickelalactone species and its ring expansion using tBu3P as a monodentate (P1) ligand compared to the P2 ligand. The calculations published are complimentary to the work done by Prof. Henry Rzepa (tris(tert-Butyl)Phosphine-Nickel Complexes, https://doi.org/10.14469/hpc/13905). Calculations were performed as part of the MSci project titled Exploration of nickelalactones for > C3 product syntheses under the supervision of Prof. George Britovsek
