Abstract
The problem of directed valence is treated from a group theory point of view. A method is developed by which the possibility of formation of covalent bonds in any spatial arrangement from a given electron configuration can be tested. The same method also determines the possibilities of double and triple bond formation. Previous results in the field of directed valence are extended to cover all possible configurations from two to eight s, p, or d electrons, and the possibilities of double bond formation in each case. A number of examples are discussed.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
