Low Valence Triel (I) Systems as Hydrogen Bond Acceptors and their Stability with Respect to Triel (III) Compounds

Low valence carbene like triel (I) systems can act as hydrogen bond acceptors creating complexes that can evolve into triel (III) adducts. The stability of those is studied and the nature of the interaction analysed, being charge transfer the main driven force. Computational tools like NBO, EDS, QTAIM results corroborate those findings.
