  2. Pi bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_bond

    A typical triple bond, for example in acetylene (HC≡CH), consists of one sigma bond and two pi bonds in two mutually perpendicular planes containing the bond axis. Two pi bonds are the maximum that can exist between a given pair of atoms. Quadruple bonds are extremely rare and can be formed only between transition metal atoms, and consist of ...

  3. Ball-and-stick model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball-and-stick_model

    Double and triple bonds are usually represented by two or three curved rods, respectively, or alternately by correctly positioned sticks for the sigma and pi bonds. In a good model, the angles between the rods should be the same as the angles between the bonds , and the distances between the centers of the spheres should be proportional to the ...

  4. Orbital hybridisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_hybridisation

    In ethene, the two carbon atoms form a σ bond by overlapping one sp 2 orbital from each carbon atom. The π bond between the carbon atoms perpendicular to the molecular plane is formed by 2p–2p overlap. Each carbon atom forms covalent C–H bonds with two hydrogens by s–sp 2 overlap, all with 120° bond angles. The hydrogen–carbon bonds ...

  5. Clar's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clar's_rule

    Some results from these rules are worth being made explicit. Following Clar, [1] rules 1 and 2 imply that circles can never be in adjacent rings. Rule 3 means that only four options are viable for rings, namely (i) having only one double bond, (ii) having two double bonds, (iii) having a circle, or (iv) being empty, i.e. having no

  6. List of set identities and relations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_set_identities_and...

    This article lists mathematical properties and laws of sets, involving the set-theoretic operations of union, intersection, and complementation and the relations of set equality and set inclusion. It also provides systematic procedures for evaluating expressions, and performing calculations, involving these operations and relations.

  7. Cation–π interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cation–π_interaction

    Unlike these two interactions, the CH-π interaction arises mainly from charge transfer between the C-H orbital and the π-system. A notable example of applying π-π interactions in supramolecular assembly is the synthesis of catenane. The major challenge for the synthesis of catenane is to interlock molecules in a controlled fashion.

  8. Cross-conjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-conjugation

    Whereas a normal conjugated system such as a polyene typically has alternating single and double bonds along consecutive atoms, a cross-conjugated system has an alkene unit bonded to one of the middle atoms of another conjugated chain through a single bond. In classical terms, one of the double-bonds branches off rather than continuing ...

  9. Ligand field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand_field_theory

    The metal also has six valence orbitals that span these irreducible representations - the s orbital is labeled a 1g, a set of three p-orbitals is labeled t 1u, and the d z 2 and d x 2 −y 2 orbitals are labeled e g. The six σ-bonding molecular orbitals result from the combinations of ligand SALCs with metal orbitals of the same symmetry.
