Abstract
In QTAIM dual-functional analysis, Hb(rc) is plotted versus Hb(rc) - Vb(rc)/2 for the interactions, where Hb(rc) and Vb(rc) are the total electron energy densities and potential energy densities, respectively, at the bond critical points (BCPs) on the interactions in question. The plots are analyzed by the polar (R, θ) coordinate representation for the data from the fully optimized structures, while those from the perturbed structures around the fully optimized structures are analyzed by (θp, κp). θp corresponds to the tangent line of the plot, and κp is the curvature; θ and θp are measured from the y-axis and y-direction, respectively. The normal and inverse behavior of interactions is proposed for the cases of θp > θ and θp < θ, respectively. The origin and the mechanism for the behavior are elucidated. Interactions with θp < θ are typically found, although seldom for [F-I-∗-F]-, [MeS-∗-TeMe]2+, [HS-∗-TeH]2+ and CF3SO2N-∗-IMe, where the asterisks emphasize the existence of BCPs in the interactions and where [Cl-Cl-∗-Cl]- and CF3SO2N-∗-BrMe were employed as the reference of θp > θ. The inverse behavior of the interactions is demonstrated to arise when Hb(rc) - Vb(rc)/2 and when the corresponding Gb(rc), the kinetic energy densities at BCPs, does not show normal behavior.
