Cultural advice

The Australian National University acknowledges, celebrates and pays our respects to the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people of the Canberra region and to all First Nations Australians on whose traditional lands we meet and work, and whose cultures are among the oldest continuing cultures in human history.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are advised that ANU Library collections may include images, names, voices, and other representations of deceased persons.

dc.description.abstractAccurate gas-phase and solution-phase valence bond calculations reveal that protonation of the hydroxyl group of aliphatic alcohols transforms the C-O bond from a principally covalent bond to a complete charge-shift bond with principally "no-bond" character. All bonding in this charge-shift bond is due to resonance between covalent and ionic structures, which is a different bonding mechanism from that of traditional covalent bonds. Until now, charge-shift bonds have been previously identified in inorganic compounds or in exotic organic compounds. This work showcases that charge-shift bonds can occur in common organic species.
