Abstract

DFT and HF methods implemented in the PC GAMESS-Firefly program package are employed to calculate the spatial and electronic structures of molecules of three-coordinate aluminum compounds with Al-N bonds. NBO and AIM methods are applied to determine the main characteristics of Al-N and N-С bonds in these molecules. It is shown that Al and N atoms interact with each other as closed shell atoms. The N-С bonds are close to covalent ones.
