Abstract:
The interaction between hydrogen bond donors and platinum has been analysed. Our results point to an interaction that can be entirely predicted from the dz(2) orbital energy of the platinum centre indicating strong charge transfer, with significant dispersion contribution to the bonding, very different from classical hydrogen bonds.

Because hydrogen has very weak electronegativity when it binds with a strongly electronegative atom, such as oxygen or nitrogen, electrons in the bond are unequally shared....

Chemical Bonds
Atoms participate in a chemical bond formation to acquire a completed valence-shell electron configuration similar to that of the noble gas nearest to it in atomic number. Ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds are some of the important types of chemical bonds. Bond energy and bond length determine the strength of a chemical bond.
Types of Chemical Bonds
An ionic bond is formed due to electrostatic attraction between cations and anions. Often, the ions are formed by the transfer of electrons...
