Bonding m alkenes is described according to an sp orbital hybridization model The double bond unites two sp hybridized carbon atoms and is made of a ct component and a rr component The ct bond arises by over lap of an sp hybrid orbital on each carbon The rr bond is weaker than the CT bond and results from a side by side overlap of p orbitals

Orbital hybridization descriptions because they too are based on the shared electron pair bond enhance the information content of Lewis formulas by distinguishing

Essential events in surface adsorption include bond contraction and sp-orbit hybridization. Bond and non-bond formation result in all the observations. 

Section 2 6 Bonding m methane is most often described by an orbital hybridization model which is a modified form of valence bond theory Four equiva lent sp hybrid orbitals of carbon are generated by mixing the 2s 2p 2py and 2p orbitals Overlap of each half filled sp hybrid orbital with a half filled hydrogen Is orbital gives a ct bond 

The structure of ethylene and the orbital hybridization model for its double bond were presented m Section 2 20 and are briefly reviewed m Figure 5 1 Ethylene is planar each carbon is sp hybridized and the double bond is considered to have a a component and a TT component The ct component arises from overlap of sp hybrid orbitals along a line connecting the two carbons the tt component via a side by side overlap of two p orbitals Regions of high electron density attributed to the tt electrons appear above and below the plane of the molecule and are clearly evident m the electrostatic potential map Most of the reactions of ethylene and other alkenes involve these electrons

Because each carbon m acetylene is bonded to two other atoms the orbital hybridization model requires each carbon to have two equivalent orbitals available for CT bonds as outlined m Figure 2 19 According to this model the carbon 2s orbital and one of Its 2p orbitals combine to generate two sp hybrid orbitals each of which has 50% s character and 50% p character These two sp orbitals share a common axis but their major lobes are oriented at an angle of 180° to each other Two of the original 2p orbitals remain unhybridized

The concepts of directed valence and orbital hybridization were developed by Linus Pauling soon after the description of the hydrogen molecule by the valence bond theory. These concepts were applied to an issue of specific concern to organic chemistry, the tetrahedral orientation of the bonds to tetracoordinate carbon. Pauling reasoned that because covalent bonds require mutual overlap of orbitals, stronger bonds would result from better overlap. Orbitals that possess directional properties, such as p orbitals, should therefore be more effective than spherically symmetric 5 orbitals.

The obvious conclusion to be reached is that there are three kinds of spd orbitals hybrid bond orbitals, contracted d orbitals, and about 0.70 other orbitals. In 1938 I considered this 0.70 unstable orbital per atom to be unsuited for either bond formation or 

We 11 expand our picture of bonding by introducing two approaches that grew out of the idea that electrons can be described as waves—the valence bond and molecular orbital models In particular one aspect of the valence bond model called orbital hybridization, will be emphasized 

Ab initio calculations on 1-azetine 2 have been carried out at the HF and MP2/6-31G(d,p) levels of theory to compare with the structures, orbital hybridization, bond orders, and charge distributions of the Dewar pyrimidinones 569, supporting the abnormally elongated C-N bond distance in pyrimidinones observed by X-ray analysis. The bond distances and angles in azetine 2 have been obtained by theoretical calculations <1997JOC2711>. 

Here, the bonding between carbon atoms is briefly reviewed fuller accounts can be found in many standard chemistry textbooks, e.g., [1]. The carbon atom [ground state electronic configuration (ls )(2s 2px2py)] can form sp sp and sp hybrid bonds as a result of promotion and hybridisation. There are four equivalent 2sp hybrid orbitals that are tetrahedrally oriented about the carbon atom and can form four equivalent tetrahedral a bonds by overlap with orbitals of other atoms. An example is the molecule ethane, CjH, where a Csp -Csp (or C-C) a bond is formed between two C atoms by overlap of sp orbitals, and three Csp -Hls a bonds are formed on each C atom. Fig. 1, Al.
