Abstract
Silabenzene, Germabenzene, their Dewar-isomers and the respective prismane structures were studied at the G2 level and the energy differences compared to the all-carbon compounds. Bond separation energy calculations at the G2 level of theory reveal that the significantly lower energies for silabenze ne as compared with benzene.
