“…According to Truhlar and coworkers, 41,42 the M05-2X DFT 43 performs very well to predict the energetics and geometric properties of Zn(II) organo complexes. Moreover and through the systematic studies of complexes formed between Zn 2+ and nitrogen-rich fivemembered ring heterocycles, 33,40,44 we highlighted the ability of M05-2X and PBE0 density functionals with dispersion correction (+D3 45 ) to accurately describe both covalent and 2+ -Tz] complexes as determined in ref. 40 1A is for 1H-1,2,3-triazole, 1B is for 2H-1,2,3triazole, 2A is for 1H-1,2,4-triazole, and 2B is for 4H-1,2,4-triazole.…”
