- Title
Chemical Bonding: The Journey from Miniature Hooks to Density Functional Theory.
- Authors
Constable, Edwin C.; Housecroft, Catherine E.; Mota, Antonio J.
- Abstract
Our modern understanding of chemistry is predicated upon bonding interactions between atoms and ions resulting in the assembly of all of the forms of matter that we encounter in our daily life. It was not always so. This review article traces the development of our understanding of bonding from prehistory, through the debates in the 19th century C.E. bearing on valence, to modern quantum chemical models and beyond.
