Spin-Coupled Generalized Valence Bond (SCGVB) theory provides the foundation for a
comprehensive theory of the electronic structure of molecules. SCGVB theory offers a …

In this article we describe the unique insights into the electronic structure of molecules
provided by generalized valence bond (GVB) theory. We consider selected prototypical …

There are many well-known differences in the physical and chemical properties of ozone
(O3) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). O3 has longer and weaker bonds than O2, whereas SO2 has …

The discovery of naturally occurring ArH+ in various regions of the interstellar medium has
shown the need for more understanding of the reactions that lead to covalently bonded …

The generalized valence bond (GVB) method was developed by William A. Goddard III in
the latter half of the 1960s. The GVB wavefunction addresses the most serious deficiencies …

Amine–peroxide redox polymerization (APRP) is the prevalent method for producing radical-
based polymers in the many industrial and medical applications where light or heat …

The HNNS radical has been promoted recently as a viable intermediate in the interstellar
creation of the spectroscopically elusive nitrogen molecule. Any confirmation of this pathway …

The NeON+ molecule is stable with a Ne+ NO+ dissociation energy of 0.90 kcal/mol. While
this is small, the two vibrational modes that include the neon atom are less than this barrier …

In a previous paper in this series, we discussed the formation of recoupled pair bonds in the
a 4Σ–states of CF and SF in which the recoupling process was essentially complete at the …

Crabtree et al. recently reported the microwave spectrum of nitrosyl-O-hydroxide (trans-
NOOH), an isomer of nitrous acid, and found that this molecule has the longest O–O bond …
