Long, Multicenter Bonding Present in Radical-Radical Interactions: A Computational Study
It is well established that organic radical-anions, such as reduced tetracyanoethylene (i.e., [TCNE]•(-)), may form dianionic dimers exhibiting long, multicenter bonding. This bond arises from the overlap of the b(2g) SOMOs of [TCNE]•- to form a doubly-occupied bonding and an empty antibonding combi...
