An Overview of Strengths and Directionalities of Noncovalent Interactions: σ-Holes and π-Holes
Quantum mechanics, through the Hellmann–Feynman theorem and the Schrödinger equation, show that noncovalent interactions are classically Coulombic in nature, which includes polarization as well as electrostatics. In the great majority of these interactions, the positive electrosta...
