Abstract Calculations of charge density and the electric field gradient tensor at the iron nucleus by means of ab initio LCAO SCF, MS-Xα, SCC-Xα and IEHT methods for iron carbonyls Fe(CO)n, n=1–5, are presented. The calculated EFG values for the closed-shell molecule Fe(CO)5 show reasonable agreement with experiment while the values obtained for the open-shell molecules Fe(CO)n, n=1–4, significantly depend on the calculational method. Ab initio results, though using a minimal basis set, are closer to experimental data than Xα and IEHT results.
