Abstract
Oxygen bonding with metals of different oxidation state of metal cations, ranging from +1 to +6 have been thoroughly analysed using experimental charge density distribution evolved from X-ray diffraction experiments using multipole and MEM models of charge density. Oxygen atoms enacting different bonding characteristics at different symmetries are well defined in the course of study of the (3,-1) bond critical points. In case of low oxidation state of metal cations, as viewed in SrO and ZnO, ionic interactions are pronounced. As the oxidation on metals ascend, combinations of intermediate, polar covalent and eventually strong correlation induced interactions are evidenced.
