Abstract
The heats of formation for Me2As-X-AsMe2, Me2As(Y)XAsMe2 and Me2As(Y)X As(Y)Me-2 (where X, Y = O and/or S) and their relative thermodynamic s tabilities were estimated using PM3 method. The ab initio method was u sed to evaluate the heats of formation of cis and trans isomers of Me2 As(S)SAs(O)Me-2. Coordination behaviour and reactivity towards electro philes and nucleophiles is discussed based on the calculations and the visualisation of the molecular orbitals using the CACAO program (Comp uter Aided Composition of Atomic Orbitals).
