Abstract

The concept of ionic character in σ and π bond systems is considered in the light of recent definitions of orbital electronegativity [6, 14].

Résumé

Le caractère ionique des liaisons σ et π est discuté en tenant compte des définitions récentes de l'électronégativité des orbitales.

Zusammenfassung

Das Konzept des ionischen Charakters in σ und π Bindungen wird im Lichte neuerer Definitionen von Orbitalelektronegativitäten diskutiert.
