Abstract
Stability of the ;-; stacking interactions in the substituted-coronene||cyclooctatetraene complexes was studied using the computational quantum chemistry methods (where || denotes ;–; stacking interaction, and substituted-coronene is coronene which substituted with four similar X groups; X = OH, SH, H, F, CN, and NO). There are meaningful correlations between changes of geometrical parameters and topological properties of the electron charge densities at ring critical points due to formation of complexes and ;-; stacking binding energies. In these complexes both electronwithdrawing and electron-donating substituents lead to larger binding energies compared to X = H (unsubsitituetted-coronene||cyclooctatetraene complex).This finding was interpreted on the basis of NMR data, especially spin-spin coupling constants between C atoms of cyclooctatetraene and C atoms at central rings of substituted-coronenes. Herein, relationships between the ;–; stacking binding energy (-E) values and, through-space C-C spin-spin coupling constants (JC-C) in the substitutedcoronene|| cyclooctatetraene complexes has been investigated in the complexes without direct electrostatic effects of substituents.
