Hydrogen and Lithium Bonds—Lewis Acid Units Possessing Multi-Center Covalent Bonds

MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations were carried out on complexes wherein the proton or the lithium cation is located between π-electron systems, or between π-electron and σ-electron units. The acetylene or its fluorine and lithium derivatives act as the Lewis base π-electron species similarly to molecular...
