The Maximin Principle of π-Radical Packings

A two-term model is proposed for hydrocarbon and N-containing π-radicals which are in close contact with one another. The first term is attractive (due to partially occupied frontier π-orbitals), and the second, repulsive (due to hard-core repulsion between close-lying atoms). This model is applied...

Zusammenfassung:A two-term model is proposed for hydrocarbon and N-containing π-radicals which are in close contact with one another. The first term is attractive (due to partially occupied frontier π-orbitals), and the second, repulsive (due to hard-core repulsion between close-lying atoms). This model is applied to dimers where intermolecular contacts are closer than
