Abstract
The nuclear shielding of Ru-99 in several complexes has been investigated computationally by DFT methods with effective core potential and all-electron basis sets. Shieldings calculated with ECP bases correlate very satisfactorily with available experimental data, although they are ca. one order of magnitude lower than the experimental values. The influence of molecular geometry (semiempirical vs. DFT) on the nuclear shielding is also examined and discussed, particularly in the case of species containing Ru-S bonds {[RuCl2(DMSO)(4)] and alpha-[PW11RuO39(DMSO)](5-)}. It is shown that such calculations may help the assignment of signals in Ru-99 NMR spectra of mono- and polynuclear complexes.
