101. III dihydride complexes cannot be located by IMOMM methods and led to the dissociation between rhodium and olefin. This is because we could treat only the steric effects and not the electronic effects of substituents in the real system at the level of the method, and because a microiteration protocol was used on the current version of the IMOMM program. A more appropriate method would be an optimization with the full gradient and Hessian matrix as adopted in a recent implementation of the ONIOM method; see: T. Vreven, M. J. Frisch, K. N. Kudin, H. B. Schlegel, K. Morokuma, Mol. Phys. 2006, 104, 701-714: see also reference [44 d].
