Abstract

Interaction of gold with pyridine and its derivatives was studied by
means of different wavefunction‐based correlation methods and standar
DFT functionals as well as accounting for dispersion correction.
Comparison of the calculated binding energies with benchmark
CCSD(T)results allows us to find an appropriate computational method,
when considering the two structures reflecting the interaction of gold
with the lone pair at nitrogen, on the one hand, and with the π‐system
of pyridine, on the other hand. Additional binding sites were evaluated,
when performing potential energy surface calculations and structure
optimizations. The enhancement of the interaction energy due to donor
substituents in the 4‐position of the pyridine molecule has been
investigated.
