Optimization of s-block metal complexes.
A comparison of crystallography with optimized DFT data is carried out.
The geometrical parameters are in agreement with XRD data.
[Ca(THPEN)(H2O)2]2+ (2) is the most stable (HLG = 6.893 eV).
B3LYP/6-31G**/LANL2DZ level of theory is the appropriate quantum-chemical method.
