    Abstract:
    The 295Pt and 205Tl NMR chemical shifts of the complexes [(NC)5Pt-Tl(CN)n]n- n=0-3, and of the related system [(NC)5Pt--Tl--Pt(CN)5]3- have been computationally investigated. It is demonstrated that based on relativistically optimized geometries, by applying an explicit first solvation shell, an additional implicit solvation model to represent the bulk solvent effects (COSMO model), and a DFT exchange-correlation potential that was specifically designed for the treatment of response properties, that the experimentally observed metal chemical shifts can be calculated with satisfactory accuracy. The metal chemical shifts have been computed by means of a two-component relativistic density functional approach. The effects of electronic spin-orbit coupling were included in all NMR computations. The impact of the choice of the reference, which ideally should not affect the accuracy of the computed chemical shifts, is also demonstrated. Together with recent calculations by us of the Pt and Tl spin-spin coupling constants, all measured metal NMR parameters of these complexes are now computationally determined with sufficient accuracy in order to allow a detailed analysis of the experimental results. In particular, we show that interaction of the complexes with the solvent (water) must be an integral part of such an analysis.
