Abstract
The complexation of magnesium with hydrogen malonate and formate anion s was studied with ab initio calculations. At least HF/6-31G level of accuracy is necessary for a qualitatively correct description of the complexes. The coordination space of magnesium has to be filled to att ain reliable results. If crystal structures are used as experimental r eferences, at least part of the crystal interactions must be properly included in the calculations.
