  2. Orbital hybridisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_hybridisation

    Chemist Linus Pauling first developed the hybridisation theory in 1931 to explain the structure of simple molecules such as methane (CH 4) using atomic orbitals. [2] Pauling pointed out that a carbon atom forms four bonds by using one s and three p orbitals, so that "it might be inferred" that a carbon atom would form three bonds at right angles (using p orbitals) and a fourth weaker bond ...

  3. Trigonal planar molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonal_planar_molecular...

    In organic chemistry, planar, three-connected carbon centers that are trigonal planar are often described as having sp 2 hybridization. [2] [3] Nitrogen inversion is the distortion of pyramidal amines through a transition state that is trigonal planar. Pyramidalization is a distortion of this molecular shape towards a tetrahedral molecular ...

  4. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    In traditional hybridisation theory, the hybrid orbitals are all equivalent. [12] [27] Namely the atomic s and p orbital(s) are combined to give four sp i 3 = 1 ⁄ √ 4 (s + √ 3 p i) orbitals, three sp i 2 = 1 ⁄ √ 3 (s + √ 2 p i) orbitals, or two sp i = 1 ⁄ √ 2 (s + p i) orbitals. These combinations are chosen to satisfy two ...

  5. Carbon–carbon bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–carbon_bond

    In ethane, the orbitals are sp 3-hybridized orbitals, but single bonds formed between carbon atoms with other hybridizations do occur (e.g. sp 2 to sp 2). In fact, the carbon atoms in the single bond need not be of the same hybridization. Carbon atoms can also form double bonds in compounds called alkenes or triple bonds in compounds called ...

  7. Allenes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allenes

    The 13 C NMR spectrum of allenes is characterized by the signal of the sp-hybridized carbon atom, resonating at a characteristic 200-220 ppm. In contrast, the sp 2 -hybridized carbon atoms resonate around 80 ppm in a region typical for alkyne and nitrile carbon atoms, while the protons of a CH 2 group of a terminal allene resonate at around 4.5 ...

  8. Bredt's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bredt's_rule

    Bredt's rule also applies to carbocations and, to a lesser degree, free radicals, because these intermediates also prefer a planar geometry with 120° angles and sp 2 hybridization. It generally does not apply to hypervalent heteroatoms, although they are commonly written with a formal double bond. [6]

  9. Isovalent hybridization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isovalent_hybridization

    In chemistry, isovalent or second order hybridization is an extension of orbital hybridization, the mixing of atomic orbitals into hybrid orbitals which can form chemical bonds, to include fractional numbers of atomic orbitals of each type (s, p, d). It allows for a quantitative depiction of bond formation when the molecular geometry deviates ...
