14. a) The DFT calculations employed the B3LYP hybrid functional[10b] in the implementation within the Gaussian98 program.[10c] The calculations used quasi-relativistic small-core pseudopotentials (effective-core potentials, ECP) for Rh[10d] and Ga,[10e] together with a [8s7p6d]/(6s5p3d) valence basis set for Rh[10d] and a [12s12p9d]/(6s6p4d) basis for Ga.[10e] C, O, and Cl were treated by ECPs and DZP valence basis sets,[10f] and a DZ basis[10g] was used for hydrogen. The electronic structure of the complexes has been studied using the electron localization function (ELF[10h]) and natural population analyses (NPA[10i]; using the built-in NBO module of the Gaussian 98 program[10c]). The ELF data have been created using the TopMoD suite of programs[10j] and are graphically displayed using the MOLEKEL program.[10k]

31. There are two different lenghts of the Rh-Ga bonds within the antiprism: 2.426(1) and 2.458(1) Å.
32. A comparison of structures included in Cambridge Crystallographic Database shows that lengths of Rh-Rh and Ga-Ga bonds (described as single ones) vary in quite broad ranges: 2.315-3.294 Å and 2.324-3.046 Å respectively. At that a maximum of distribution for Rh-Rh distances lies between 2.660 and 2.880 A. As to Ga-Ga bonds the distribution does not have an explicit maximum, and most of the values are represented almost evenly between 2.367 and 2.720 A.
