Table 3 Estimated enthalpies (in kJ mol-1) for formation of the complexes MAsS(SH)(OH) and M(SH)2- in aqueous solution from M(OH2)2+ and ligand, obtained from polarized SBK MP2 equilibrium geometries, for Cu+, Ag+, Au+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Hg2+, Tl+ and Pb2+. Hydration enthalpies of ions are estimated using effective radii calculated from M–L bond distances
