Atoms and bonds in molecules as synergisms of interactions between electrons and nuclei
1Department of Chemistry and Ames National Laboratory, USDOE, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa 20011, USA.
Abstract:
The molecular electronic wave functions are expressed in quasi-atomic form. The corresponding global energy expression exhibits the unified resolution of the various modes of chemical bonding in terms of physical interactions. The bonding patterns in several molecules is elucidated.

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...
¹H NMR: Long-Range Coupling
In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene...

Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...
