The complexes formed by H2CO, CH3CHO, and (CH3)2CO with 1, 2, and 3 molecules of CO2 are studied by ab initio calculations. Three different types of heterodimers are observed, most containing a tetrel bond to the C atom of CO2, and some supplemented by a CH..O H-bond. One type of heterodimer is stabilized by an anti-parallel arrangement of the C=O bonds of the two molecules. The binding energies are enhanced by methyl substitution on the carbonyl, and vary between 2.4 and 3.5 kcal/mol. Natural bond orbital analysis identifies a prime source of interaction as charge transfer into the π (CO) antibonding orbital. Heterotrimers and tetramers carry over many of the geometrical and bonding features of the binary complexes, but also introduce O..O chalcogen bonds. These larger complexes exhibit only small amounts of cooperativity.This work has been supported by NSF-CHE-1026826 and by CTQ2012-35513-C02-02 (MINECO). Computer, storage, and other resources from the Division of Research Computing in the Office of Research and Graduate Studies at Utah State University and the CTI (CSIC) are gratefully acknowledged. Gratitude is also due to Professor Dr. Ibon Alkorta (IQM-CSIC) for the NBO analysis with the NBO6.0 program.Peer Reviewe
