Abstract

It is proposed that noncovalent interactions, wherein it is possible to identify an element or moiety working as the electrophile, are named by referring to the Group of the Periodic Table the electrophilic atom belongs to. The resulting terminology generalizes a criterion which was used in the recent IUPAC definition of halogen bond and inspired the definition of hydrogen bond. A systematic, unambiguous, and periodic naming is obtained and applies to the majority of the attractive interactions formed by the elements of Groups 1, 2, 13–17 and, possibly, to some interactions formed by the elements of other Groups.

73. “Molecular species” which seriously challenge the convention proposed in this Perspective can be found, but this is a common situation for most of, probably all, the concepts related to the chemical bond and the terms used to designate them. This is a direct consequence of the tremendous diversity of the bonds present in the millions of “molecular species” prepared and studied by chemists. For instance, the proposed generalization aims at giving a criterion to assign an unambiguous name to most of the attractive interactions given by elements of Groups 1, 2, 13–17, but in some species it is not easy to distinguish unambiguously the covalent bonds formed by an atom from the interaction it is involved in. Phenyllithium gives a tetrahydropyrane solvate.
