Orthogonal and non-orthogonal hybrids

TL;DR: In this article, a wave function for XHn molecules is analyzed in terms of the hybridization concept and it is shown that for X from the first row (especially for carbon) the hybrid-AOs so obtained are close to orthogonal.

Anatomy of bond formation. Bond length dependence of the extent of electron sharing in chemical bonds

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that domain-average Fermi hole (DAFH) analysis, which has previously been used at the Hartree-Fock level, remains useful after the proper introduction of electron correlation, and provides further insight into the geometry dependence of the extent of electron sharing in polar and non-polar systems.

Electron pairing and chemical bonds. On the accuracy of the electron pair model of chemical bond

TL;DR: The accuracy of the Lewis electron pair model of the chemical bond is investigated in this paper, and it is shown that, contrary to previous pessimistic findings, the accuracy of this model is high enough to represent a good basis for the understanding and interpretation of molecular structure.

Structure and Optical Properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the properties of atomic and ionic refractions of elements and showed that refraction of a compound can be approximated by additive increments of atoms, functional groups, ions, or bonds.

Valence-Shell Calculations on Polyatomic Molecules III. The Calculation of Dipole Moments and the Structure of Sydnone*

TL;DR: In this paper, an iterative Extended Huckel (IEH) method was used to calculate the dipole moment of a carbonyl compound, and the results showed that sydnone is best represented as a resonance stabilized azo-methine imine rather than as a “meso-ionic” or betaine type compound.
