Nature of Noncovalent Carbon-Bonding Interactions Derived from Experimental Charge-Density Analysis

<p> In an effort to better understand the nature of noncovalent carbon-bonding interactions, we undertook accurate high-resolution X-ray diffraction analysis of single crystals of 1,1,2,2-tetracyanocyclopropane. We selected this compound to study the fundamental characteristics of carbon-bondi...
