Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

We consider optical properties of 4 neutral hexacoordinated Si(bzimpy) 2 complexes, containing the 2,6- bis(benzimidazol-2 ′ -yl)pyridineligandusingDFTmethod. Thegeometricalparametersoftheoptimized cluster structures, the electronic absorption spectrum, and the molecular orbitals of the structures under consideration are discussed. The effect of addition of the substituents ligands to the of Si(bzimpy) 2 compound is considered. We found that succesive addition of substituents shifts HOMO and LUMO to higher values. The manipulation may provide desirable optical properties of the material.
