heal.abstractDensity functional theory calculations have been employed to study the molecular and electronic structures, stabilities, and bonding features of a series of metal clusters with the general formulas [c-M(3)L(n)](+) and [c-M(3)(mu(2)-H)(3)L(n)] (M = Cu, Ag, Au, L = ethylene, acetylene; n = 1-3) in their singlet ground states. The upright or in-plane orientation adopted by the eta(2)-coordinated unsaturated hydrocarbon ligands L in the [c-M(3)L(n)](+) and [c-M(3)(mu(2)-H)(3)L(n)] complexes respectively is strongly related to the electrophilicity index, omega, of the respective electrophilic [c-M(3)L(n-1)](+) and [c-M(3)(mu(2)-H)(3)-L(n-1)] fragments. We found that for to omega > 7 eV the unsaturated ligands adopt the upright orientation, while for omega < 2.95 eV the in-plane orientation is adopted. The bending back of the H atoms of acetylene and the pyramidalization of the carbon atoms of ethylene upon coordination of ligands L to the metal centers are due to favorable n(M) -> pi*(L) and pi(L) -> n(M) hyperconjugative interactions. Charge (CDA) and energy decomposition analysis (EDA) indicate that acetylene/ethylene are more strongly bound to the "naked" rather than to the hydrido-bridged triangular noble metal clusters, while the M-C(2)H(2)/C(2)H(4) binding interactions are predicted to be predominantly electrostatic rather than covalent. On the basis of the EDA analysis the contribution of pi-back-bonding, and even delta-back-bonding for the acetylene complexes, to the covalent interactions are far more significant than sigma-bonding in [c-M(3)L(n)](+) clusters, while the opposite holds true for the [c-M(3)(mu(2)-H)(3)L(n)] clusters.en
