An investigation of the interaction of sulfonating agent with aromatic rings has been initiated through a computational study of complexation of sulfur anhydride with benzene to determine if this is appropriately included as an example of η~6 cation-π interaction.Several initial structures for three types of π complex of sulfur anhydride with benzene,1(η~6),2(η~2),3(η~1),and the Wheland σ complex 4 were fully optimized,three types of π complex η~6,η~2,η~1 have been obtained at several theoretical levels.The results indicate tha...
