Topological analysis of electron densities: is the presence of an atomic interaction line in an equilibrium geometry a sufficient condition for the existence of a chemical bond?

Abstract: Contrary to the published acknowledgement, Professor R. F. W. Bader in no way contributed to any of arguments presented in this paper; he has indicated that all of the criticisms raised by the authors were previously discussed and rebuted in J. Chem. Phys. A1998, 102, 7314. A copy of an earlier version of the manuscript was sent to Professor Bader last spring, and the e-mail correspondence that followed made it very clear that he disagreed strongly with the conclusions. The authors nevertheless found the discussion useful, since it clarified the nature of the disagreement. Professor Bader's queries also prompted the authors to calculate the dissociation energy of the He@adam inclusion complex and to determine the structure of the transition state as discussed in the article. The authors apologize for omitting to ask for Professor Bader's permission to include his name among the acknowledgements.

Recent trends in the chemistry of sulfur-containing reducing agents

Abstract: Data on the structure, synthesis, stability and reactivity of sulfur-containing reducing agents with C–S or S–S bonds — sodium dithionite, sodium hydroxymethanesulfinate and thiourea oxides — are surveyed. Reactions of anaerobic and aerobic decomposition of sulfur-containing reducing agents are discussed. The applications of these compounds in the studies of non-linear phenomena in chemical kinetics and in guanidine syntheses are considered. The bibliography includes 165 references.
