28. Molecular orbitals were expanded by means of the LANL2DZ basis set.
29. Molecular orbitals were expanded in an uncontracted triple δ Slater-type basis set augmented with 2p and 3d polarisation functions for H, 3d and 4f polarisation functions for C, N, and O. No polarisation functions were added for Ru. The cores were kept frozen.

37. It should be noted that all the relative energies of the intermediates were calculated in the gas phase. In solution, compounds 16 and 18 will also be stabilised by the formation of hydrogen bonds to the solvent.
