Heavy Atom Compounds • Relativistic theoretical treatment • Estimated absolute relativistic effects of >100% for 6th row elements for NMR spin-spin coupling constants • Bonding changes qualitatively due to relativity scaling of nonrelativistic orbital coupling contributions might be misleading Therefore a full relativistic treatment for the spin-spin coupling constants is needed 2
Methodology Spin-spin coupling constants Indirect interactionK(A,B) Electrons with orbital- and spin- magnetic moments Direct interaction Nucleus B Spin magnetic moment creates magnetic field Nucleus A Spin magnetic moment creates magnetic field 3
we need to know including relativity Reduced coupling tensor Reduced coupling constant Coupling constants in Hz from the NMR spectrum 4
Variationally stable two-com- ponent relativistic Hamiltonian The ZORA one-electron Hamiltonian Molecular effective Kohn-Sham potential if used in DFT Tnrel + relativistic corrections of T and V + spin-orbit effects Magnetic field due tonuclear magnetic moments Replacement to account for magnetic fields 5
The ZORA Hyperfine Terms Requires solution of 1st-order pertur- bation equations Nuclei A and B, directions j and k of magnetic moments 6
Description of the program • Auxiliary program for ADF (Amsterdam Density Functional V. 99 and 2.3, see www.scm.com) • Based on nonrelativistic, ZORA scalar or ZORA spinorbit 0th order Kohn-Sham orbitals • Solution of the coupled 1st order Kohn- Sham equations due to FC-, SD-, and PSO term (instead of finite perturbation) • Accelerated convergence for scalar relativistic calculations (< 10 iterations) • Spin-dipole term available • Currently no current-density dependencein V, Xa approximation for 1st order exchange potential 7

Summary • NMR shieldings and spin-spin couplings with ADF now available for light and heavy atom systems • Based on the variationally stable two-component ZORA method • Relativistic effects on spin-spin couplings are substantial and recovered by ZORA • Spin-orbit effects are rather small for the investigated cases • Coordination by solvent molecules has to be explicitly taken into account for coordinatively unsaturated systems 15
