46. An angular parameter τ maybe used to classify the geometry of pentacoordinate compounds. It is defined as τ = (α- β)/60, where α and β are the two largest L-M-L angles, and α ≥ β. A perfect trigonal bipyramid has α = 180° and β = 120°, thus τ = 1, whereas in a perfect square pyramid α = β, i.e., τ = 0. (a) Addison, A. W.; Rao, T. N.; Reedijk, J.; Rijn, v. J.; Verschoor, G. C.

57. These orbitals are those expected for a restricted HF solution. The actual α and β spin orbitals in an unrestricted HF calculations are localized on one or the other p-benzyne carbon. This is not true for the HOMO of 8, where the UB3LYP calculations yield orbitals identical for α and β spins (shown in Figure 7).

65. Note again, as we discussed in the text around structure 8, that we avoid a discussion of the bond order of the various bonds but do give their computed lengths.
66. The HOMO and LUMO of singlet 8, 8′, 11, 11′, and 15 are shown in the Supporting Information.
67. Eight potential isomers arising in the Berry pseudorotation of 13 were optimized. Two trigonal bipyramids and two square pyramids collapsed to complex 13 ([0] kcal/mol). Three other isomers (including one trigonal bipyramid and two square pyramids) transformed into a trigonal bipyramidal structure 7 kcal/mol less stable than 13. One optimized trigonal bipyramid was +11 kcal higher in energy than 13.
