Concepts such as relative aadity and caibocation stability can be fundamentally related to hardness and electronegativity as defined by DFT. 

Two factors have contributed to the special interest that attaches to B-N compounds. First, the B-N unit is isoelectronic with C-C and secondly, the size and electronegativity of the 3 atoms are similar, C being the mean of B and N ...

Direct transmetalation of organoboranes to organocopper reagents is not a general reaction. Because of dieir similar bond energies and electronegativities, diis trans-nietalation is linided to die preparation of alkenylcopper and unfiinctionalized... 

In order to check the consistency and mutual relations of ECIs calculated by various methods, as well as to compare them with experimental data, we have performed calculations for several alloy systems, as diverse as Cu-Nl, Al-Li, Al-Ni, Ni-Pt and Pt-Rh. Here we present the results for Al-Ni, Pt-Rh and Ni-Pt alloys in some detail, because the pair interactions between the first neighbors are dominant in these alloys which makes the interpretation relatively simple. On the other hand, the pair interactions between more distant neighbors and also triplet interactions are important for Al-Li and Cu-Ni. The equilibrium atomic radii, bulk moduli and electronegativities of A1 and Ni are rather different, while Pt and Rh are quite similar in this respect. The Ni and Pt atoms differ mainly by their size. 

In this section we will consider how the periodic table can be used to correlate properties on an atomic scale. In particular, we will see how atomic radius, ionic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity vary horizontally and vertically in the periodic table. 

Identify periodic trends in radii, ionization energy, and electronegativity. 

The equilibrium situation for simple substituted 2-ulkenyl alkali metal derivatives can be estimated by a rule of thumb electron-accepting and electropositive substituents ( ) prefer the exo position, but electron-donating and electronegative substituents ( ), including alkyl groups, tend to occupy the endo position. With increasing steric demand of the substituent, the exoisomer becomes more favored. 

Electron Capture Detector In the electron capture detector (ECD), a beta emitter such as tritium or 63Ni is used to ionize the carrier gas. Electrons from the ionization migrate to the anode and produce a steady current. If the GC effluent contains a compound that can capture electrons, the current is reduced because the resulting negative ions move more slowly than electrons. Thus, the signal measured is the loss of electrical current. The ECD is very sensitive to materials that readily capture electrons. These materials frequently have unsaturation and electronegative substituents. Because the ECD is sensitive to water, the carrier gas must be dry. 

Electropositive (Electron Donor) and Electronegative (Electron Acceptor) Promoters... 

Depending on the change a promoter induces on the work function, catalyst surface, a major distinction can be made between electropositive (electron donor) and electronegative (electron acceptor) adsorbates. 

The key of the promotional action is the effect of electropositive and electronegative promoters on the chemisorptive bond of the reactants, intermediates and, sometimes, products of catalytic reactions. Despite the polymorphic and frequently complex nature of this effect, there are two simple rules always obeyed which can guide us in the phenomenological survey which follows in this chapter. 

This description would assign to the caesium atom in the caesium fluoride crystal a resultant charge + and to the fluorine atom a charge — It has seemed to me likely that in general all of the atoms in the complexes that constitute stable chemical substances have resultant electrical charges smaller than those shown by these most electropositive and electronegative atoms in their compounds with one another, and I have accordingly formulated the postulate of the essential electrical neutrality of atoms namely, that the electronic structure of substances is...
