EPR Study of Electronic Structure of [CoF6]3−and B18N18 Nano Ring Field Effects on Octahedral Complex
Density functional theory calculations (DFT), as well as hybrid methods (B3LYP) for B 18 N 18 -[CoF 6 ] 3− complex have been carried out to study the non-bonded interaction. The geometry of the B 18 N 18 has been optimized at B3LYP method with EPR-II basis set and geometry of the [CoF 6 ] 3− have be...

Then we have been investigated the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) for the lowest energy have been derived to estimate the structural stability of the B
