The titular calculations show that charges at metal atoms M are apparently the main factor governing the nature of M⋅⋅⋅M interactions in two‐nuclear coinage‐metal complexes, and there are certain critical values of positive charges on M atoms, on exceeding which the pair‐wise M⋅⋅⋅M interactions and/or the binding between M atoms in such complexes become repulsive despite negative formation energies of such complexes, short M–M internuclear distances, and the existence of a bond critical point (BCP) between M atoms.
