24. Evaluated by B3PW91/LANL2DZ calculation.

26. SDD with an added set of f functions was used for Ru, whereas 6-311 + G was used for other atoms.
27. -1. BSSE in the B3PW91 calculation could cause an overestimation of the interaction energy.
28. Solvation free energies calculated in Gaussian 98 by using the PCM method with parameters for ethanol together with B3PW91 and SDD for ruthenium and 6-31G* for other atoms indicate a possible rate difference for ligand 2a. However, the small energy difference is probably without the accuracy of this method.
