• 9. Stabilization of REER due to trans-bending is ascribed to the mixing of the low-lying vacant σ* orbital into the in-plane π_in orbital, known as a second-order Jahn–Teller effect. The mixing of the antibonding σ* orbital is enhanced, as the E atom becomes heavier. It makes the bonding π_in orbital slipped and weakened.

• 11. Bond order is often discussed to characterize bond multiplicity and strength, though it is an artificial index. Because the two dative bonds in mode a are weak, the Pb–Pb bond order is less than three. However, we prefer to call the Pb–Pb bond a triple bond, because there are three bonds between the Pb atoms. Bond order is not always correlated to bond strength, unlike the carbon cases.

• 13. It should be described that the energy of the triply bonded structure of Ar*PbPbAr* is not sensitive to the dihedral angle (ω). For example, the structure optimized by fixing the angle at ω = 140º is only 0.7 kcal/mol less stable than the fully optimized structure (ω = 119.8º). The two absorptions of 420 and 752 nm calculated for ω = 140º are closer to the experimental values of 397 and 719 nm.

• 22. The size difference between valence s and p orbitals becomes the largest for the heaviest Pb atom [8b]. Therefore, the Pb atom is most reluctant to form hybrid orbitals. It should be noted in Fig. 5b that no hybrid orbital is required for the Pb atom.

• 25. The Pb₂ molecule has the triplet ground state (³Σ_g^–), as do Si₂ and Ge₂. For the interaction shown in Fig. 5b, Pb₂ must be excited to the singlet state (¹∆_g).
