  2. Non-covalent interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-covalent_interaction

    Since oxygen is more electronegative than the carbon that is covalently bonded to it, the electrons associated with that bond will be closer to the oxygen than the carbon, creating a partial negative charge (δ −) on the oxygen, and a partial positive charge (δ +) on the carbon. They are not full charges because the electrons are still ...

  3. Bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_order

    In molecules which have resonance or nonclassical bonding, bond order may not be an integer.In benzene, the delocalized molecular orbitals contain 6 pi electrons over six carbons, essentially yielding half a pi bond together with the sigma bond for each pair of carbon atoms, giving a calculated bond order of 1.5 (one and a half bond).

  4. Cross-coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-coupling_reaction

    Frequently, however, C–Cl bonds are too inert, and bromide or iodide leaving groups are required for acceptable rates. The main group metal in the organometallic partner usually is an electropositive element such as tin , zinc , silicon, or boron .

  5. Cyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_compound

    Cyclic compounds that have both carbon and non-carbon atoms present are heterocyclic carbon compounds, and the name refers to inorganic cyclic compounds as well (e.g., siloxanes, which contain only silicon and oxygen in the rings, and borazines, which contain only boron and nitrogen in the rings). [5]

  6. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    The σ from the 2p is more non-bonding due to mixing, and same with the 2s σ. This also causes a large jump in energy in the 2p σ* orbital. The bond order of diatomic nitrogen is three, and it is a diamagnetic molecule. [12] The bond order for dinitrogen (1σ g 2 1σ u 2 2σ g 2 2σ u 2 1π u 4 3σ g 2) is three because two electrons are now ...

  7. Chalcogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chalcogen_bond

    NBO analysis distinguishes between covalent, Lewis-type bonding interactions and non-covalent, non-Lewis bonding interaction. The chalcogen bond will be evaluated based on the natural population of the n → σ* orbital. A higher population of this orbital should then also be reflected in changes in the geometry.

  8. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    The electron density of these two bonding electrons in the region between the two atoms increases from the density of two non-interacting H atoms. Two p-orbitals forming a pi-bond. A double bond has two shared pairs of electrons, one in a sigma bond and one in a pi bond with electron density concentrated on two opposite sides of the ...

  9. Bonding molecular orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_molecular_orbital

    Pi bonds are created by the “side-on” interactions of the orbitals. [3] Once again, in molecular orbitals, bonding pi (π) electrons occur when the interaction of the two π atomic orbitals are in-phase. In this case, the electron density of the π orbitals needs to be symmetric along the mirror plane in order to create the bonding ...
