topological approaches that allow the chemist to recover intuitive concepts
 
from density-funcitonal calculations in periodic solids. These include the non-covalent interactions
 
(NCI) analysis, the electron localization function (ELF), and the molecular
 
electrostatic potential (MEP). Chemical features such as lone-pairs, pi-stacking,
 
weak hydrogen bonds, caged electrons... come together in the experimental crystal structure and
 
can be identified directly using the aforementioned tools.

Non-covalent interactions: characteristics and mechanisms of formation - the topological approach

Numerous non-covalent interactions are characterized by the electron charge transfer from the Lewis base unit to the Lewis acid center [1]. This is connected with the other processes reflected by the change of geometrical, energetic and topological parameters. For example, different characteristics of the hydrogen bond and various criteria of the existence of this interaction were discussed in the literature [2]. One can mention the topological criteria of Koch and Popelier [3,4]. On the other hand, the hydrogen bond mechanism was discussed in terms of NBO method [5]. Very recently it was found that the hydrogen bond, the halogen bond and other non-covalent interactions are steered by the same processes [6]. This is reflected by the same changes of parameters. For example, the A-H...B hydrogen bond formation is connected with the increase of the positive charge of H-atom and the decrease of its volume. The same changes are observed for X-halogen atom in the A-X...B halogen bond. Various similarities and differences between numerous non-covalent interactions may be discussed.
