Abstract
⺠For Cp4M the S4 structures are saddle points. ⺠The minima for Cp4M have all η5-Cp rings for M = Ce and Th, three η5-Cp rings and one η1-Cp ring for M = Zr, and two η5-Cp rings and two η5-Cp rings for M = Ti and Hf. ⺠The dissociation energies for Cp4M â Cp3M + Cp increase in the sequence Ti < Ce < Zr â¼ Hf < Th. ⺠The C3h structures with all η5-Cp rings are genuine minima for all of the Cp3M compounds except for Cp3Ti. ⺠The dissociation energies for Cp3M â Cp2M + Cp increase in the sequence V < Ti < Sc < Y < La.
