Abstract
Multireference second-order perturbation calculations have been carrie d out for copper and sodium complexes involving one CN ligand. Neutral compounds are strongly linked, cyanides M-CN being more stable than i socyanides M-NC (M = Cu, Na) as in the case of the pair HCN/HNC. Catio ns are much less strongly linked, Cu-NC+ being predicted to be the onl y system having a fairly bound structure, at variance with the dominan ce of the cyanide form in the HCN+/HNC+ pair.
