Ferrocenes are ubiquitous organometallic building blocks that comprise a Fe atom sandwiched between two cyclopentadienyl (Cp) rings that rotate freely at room temperature. Of widespread interest in fundamental studies and real-world applications, they have also attracted<br>some interest as functional elements of molecular-scale devices. Here we investigate the impact of<br>the configurational degrees of freedom of a ferrocene derivative on its single-molecule junction<br>conductance. Measurements indicate that the conductance of the ferrocene derivative, which is<br>suppressed by two orders of magnitude as compared to a fully conjugated analog, can be modulated<br>by altering the junction configuration. Ab initio transport calculations show that the low conductance is a consequence of destructive quantum interference effects that arise from the hybridization of metal-based d-orbitals and the ligand-based π-system. By rotating the Cp rings, the hybridization, and thus the quantum interference, can be mechanically controlled, resulting in a conductance modulation that is seen experimentally.<br>

The series expansion formulae are established for the one- and two-center charge densities over complete orthonormal sets of Ψα-exponential type orbitals (Ψα-ETO α = 1,0,-1,-2,…) introduced by the author. Three-center overlap integrals of Ψα appearing in these relations are expressed through the two-center overlap integrals between Ψα-orbitals. The general formulae obtained for the charge densities are utilized for the evaluation of arbitrary multicenter–multielectron integrals occurring when the complete orthonormal sets of Ψα-ETO are used as basis functions in the Hartree–Fock–Roothaan and explicitly correlated methods. The relationships for charge densities and multicenter–multielectron integrals obtained are valid for the arbitrary quantum numbers, screening constants, and location of Ψα-orbitals.
