Noble gases (Ngs) are recognized as the least reactive elements due to their fully filled
valence electronic configuration. Their reluctance to engage in chemical bond formation …

This Review presents the current status of the noble gas (Ng)‐noble metal chemistry, which
began in 1977 with the detection of AuNe+ through mass spectroscopy and then grew from …

We present a systematic study on structural, electronic, optical properties of C30 fullerene
and its six doped counterparts, C10X10Y10 (where, X= B, Al and Y= N, P, As) based on …

Noble gases (Ngs) are the least reactive elements in the periodic table towards chemical
bond formation when compared with other elements because of their completely filled …

The way the bonding and reactivity of armchair carbon nanotubes depends on the curvature
of the nanotube has been investigated using density functional theory. To understand the …

We propose here a general classification of the Ng–X bonds (Ng= noble-gas atom; X=
binding partner) that relies on the combined analysis of the local electron energy density H …

The internal isomerization, MNC↔ MCN (M= Cu, Ag, Au), is investigated through quantum
chemical computations. CuNC and AgNC are shown to be neither thermochemically nor …

This article provides a discussion on the nature of bonding between noble gases (Ng) and
noble metals (M) from a quantum chemical perspective by investigating compounds such as …

Although Ng–M (M= Cu, Ag, Au; Ng= noble gas) and Ng–C bonds are known to exist in
different viable species, we report here a series of systems with formula MNgCCH (Ng= Xe …

Metal acetylides (MCCH, M= Cu, Ag, Au) were already experimentally detected in molecular
form. Herein, we investigate the possibility of noble gas (Ng) insertion within the C–H bond …
