Covalent bond orders revisited: The open-shell case

This article states the concept of covalent bond order for open-shell systems from the invariance properties of the first- and second-order reduced density matrices for all the components of a multiplet state. A general bond order definition is formulated in the framework of the electronic populatio...

Sumario:This article states the concept of covalent bond order for open-shell systems from the invariance properties of the first- and second-order reduced density matrices for all the components of a multiplet state. A general bond order definition is formulated in the framework of the electronic population analyses in the Hilbert space of atomic orbitals. © the Owner Societies.
