DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.7b01405
Abstract: Cadmium ions (Cd2+) are similar to calcium ions (Ca2+) in size, whereas the Cd2+ ions tend to form covalent bonds with the neighboring anions because of the high electronegativity. The covalent Cd-O bonds affect other… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.8b03358
Abstract: Across the actinide period, the stability of the trivalent oxidation state predominates in the heavy actinides, making their chemical nature close to that of rare earth elements. The resemblance in their chemistry poses difficulties in… read more here.

Abstract: Previous magnetic, spectroscopic, and theoretical studies of cerocene, Ce(C8H8)2, have provided evidence for non-negligible 4f-electron density on Ce and implied that charge transfer from the ligands occurs as a result of covalent bonding. Strong correlations… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/molecules27020377
Abstract: Intermolecular bonding attraction at π-bonded centers is often described as “electrostatically driven” and given quasi-classical rationalization in terms of a “pi hole” depletion region in the electrostatic potential. However, we demonstrate here that such bonding… read more here.
