Abstract
Recently, astronomically important silaisocyanoacetylene (HCCNSi) possessing a large dipole moment has been detected for the first time with the help of crossed molecular beam experiments. Quantum chemical computations at higher levels of theory have also been performed to characterize the transient species. In this study, we have analyzed the equilibrium geometry, stability, reactivity, and energetics as well as the nature of bonding in the noble gas (Ng) inserted HCCNSi compound. We have also considered its F analogue to understand the influence of the most electronegative atom in the compound. Metastable behavior of the XNgNSi compounds (X = HCC, F; Ng = Kr-Rn) is examined by calculating thermochemical parameters like free energy change (ΔG) and zero-point-energy-corrected dissociation energy (D0) at 298 K for all possible two-body (2B) and three-body (3B) (both neutral as well as ionic) dissociation channels using coupled-cluster theory [CCSD(T)] in addition to density functional theory (DFT) as well as second order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2). The set of predicted compounds is found to be endergonic in nature, having high positive free energy change suggesting the thermochemical stability of the compounds except for the 2B Ng-release paths. Though thermodynamically feasible, they are kinetically protected with very high activation free energy barriers. Interestingly, the release of Ng from the parent moiety XNgNSi produces the XSiN isomer, by 180° flipping of the NSi moiety. This can also be seen in the dynamical simulation carried out with the help of atom-centered density matrix propagation (ADMP) technique at 2000K for 1 ps. The bonding in Ng-C, Ng-F, and Ng-N bonds of the studied compounds is analyzed and described with the aid of natural bond orbital (NBO), topological parameters computed using atoms-in-molecules theory (AIM), energy decomposition analysis (EDA), and adaptive natural density partitioning (AdNDP) methods. The natural charge distribution on the constituent atoms suggests that the compounds can be partitioned into both ways of representations, viz., neutral radical as well as ionic fragments. Lastly, the reactivity of the compounds is scrutinized using certain reactivity descriptors calculated within the domain of conceptual density functional theory (CDFT).

Abstract
Although the noble gas (Ng) compounds with either Ng-C or Ng-N bonds have been reported in the literature, compounds containing both bonds are not known. The first set of systems having a C-Ng-N bonding unit is predicted herein through the analysis of stability and bonding in the NCNgNSi (Ng=Kr-Rn) family. While the Xe and Rn inserted analogues are thermochemically stable with respect to all dissociation channels, but for the one producing CNSiN and free Ng, NCKrNSi has another additional three-body dissociation channel, NCKrNSi→CN+Kr+NSi, which is exergonic by -9.8 kcal mol-1 at 298 K. This latter dissociation can be hindered by lowering the temperature. Moreover, the NCNgNSi→Ng+CNSiN dissociation is also kinetically prohibited by a quite high free energy barrier ranging from 25.2 to 39.3 kcal mol-1 , with a gradual increase in going from Kr to Rn. Therefore, these compounds are appropriate candidates for experimental realization. A detailed bonding analysis by employing natural bond orbital, electron density, energy decomposition, and adaptive natural density partitioning analyses indicates that both Ng-N and C-Ng bonds in the title compounds are covalent in nature. In fact, the latter analysis indicates the presence of delocalized 3c-3e σ-bond within the C-Ng-N moiety and a totally delocalized 5c-2e σ-bond in these compounds. This is an unprecedented bonding characteristic in the sense that the bonding pattern in Ng inserted compounds is generally represented as the presence of covalent bond in one side of Ng, and the ionic interaction in the other side. Further, the dissociation of Ng from NCNgNSi facilitates the formation of a higher energy isomer of NCNSi, CNSiN, which cannot be formed from bare NCNSi as such, because of the very high free energy barrier associated with the isomeric transformation. Therefore, in the presence of Ng atoms it might be possible to detect the high energy isomer.

Abstract
We report on the complex of a noble-gas hydride HXeOH with carbon monoxide. This species is prepared via the annealing-induced H + Xe + OH···CO reaction in a xenon matrix, the OH···CO complexes being produced by VUV photolysis of the H2O···CO complexes. The H-Xe stretching mode of the HXeOH···CO complex absorbs at 1590.3 cm-1 and it is blue-shifted by 12.7 cm-1 from the H-Xe stretching band of HXeOH monomer. The observed blue shift indicates the stabilization of the H-Xe bond upon complexation, which is characteristic of complexes of noble-gas hydrides. The HXeOH···CO species is the first complex of a noble-gas hydride with carbon monoxide and the second observed complex of HXeOH. On the basis of the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ-PP calculations, the experimental complex is assigned to the structure, where the carbon atom of CO interacts with the oxygen atom of HXeOH.

Abstract
Although HNgCCX (Ng = Kr and Xe; X = F and Cl) have been identified in cryogenic matrices, similar Br and I analogues have not been prepared so far. In this paper, the nature of HNgCCX (Ng = Kr and Xe; X = F, Cl, Br and I) have been investigated by ab initio methods. The main characteristic absorption peak of HNgCCX is the vH-Ng, which decreases as X varies from F to I. Moreover, the H-Xe bond is stronger than the H-Kr bond. The vC≡C and vC-X exhibit red- and blue-shift characters, respectively, especially the C-X bond is abnormal blue-shift halogen bond. AIM results show that the H-Ng bond is essentially covalent bond and the covalent character of H-Xe bond is underestimated, and the trend of the covalent character is C-Cl > C-Br > C-F > C-I. Although HNgCCX is instable thermodynamically with respect to Ng + HCCX, it is kinetically stable with respect to the two-/three-body channels due to the relatively larger energy barriers. The three-body channels of HNgCCX is the main decomposition channel, and the kinetically stability of HXeCCX is more than its Kr analogues. This study is helpful for the preparation of new HNgCCX in cryogenic matrices.
