On the basis of a multipole refinement of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data collected using an Ag source at 90 K to a resolution of 1.63 Å−1, a quantitative experimental charge density distribution has been obtained for fluorite (CaF2). The atoms-in-molecules integrated experimental charges for Ca2+and F−ions are +1.40 e and −0.70 e, respectively. The derived electron-density distribution, maximum electron-density paths, interaction lines and bond critical points along Ca2+...F−and F−...F−contacts revealed the character of these interactions. The Ca2+...F−interaction is clearly a closed shell and ionic in character. However, the F−...F−interaction has properties associated with the recently recognized type of interaction referred to as `charge-shift' bonding. This conclusion is supported by the topology of the electron localization function and analysis of the quantum theory of atoms in molecules and crystals topological parameters. The Ca2+...F−bonded radii – measured as distances from the centre of the ion to the critical point – are 1.21 Å for the Ca2+cation and 1.15 Å for the F−anion. These values are in a good agreement with the corresponding Shannon ionic radii. The F−...F−bond path and bond critical point is also found in the CaF2crystal structure. According to the quantum theory of atoms in molecules and crystals, this interaction is attractive in character. This is additionally supported by the topology of non-covalent interactions based on the reduced density gradient.

The molecular interaction between the chelating agents of citric acid (CA), ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and triethylenetetraamine (TETA) with metals (M = Ba, Y, and Zr) were studied using Density Functional Theory (DFT) method. This study aims to determine the type of bonding between M–O/N bonds in the CA/EDTA/TETA– complexes. In this study, each metal was attached at strategic positions of chelating agents and was optimized at B3LYP/6-31G* and UGBS level of theory. The M–O bonds were characterized based on Atoms–in–molecules (AIM) and Electron Localization Function (ELF) in the topological analysis. In AIM analysis, the total electron energy density at the bond critical point (BCP) of the M–O/N bonds are used to estimate the interaction involved. The low values of ρ(r) and positive values of ∇2ρ(r) indicates that ionic character exists in the M–O/N bonds. In ELF color-filled map, the blue shaded region between M–O/N atom acts as an indicator for the existence of the ionic interaction. Both AIM and ELF results confirm the existence of ionic bonding between M–O/N bonds, with values of ρ(r) and ∇2ρ(r) ranging from 0.02 to 0.12 au and 0.09 to 0.5 au respectively. Further analysis on charge distribution at M–O/N bonds show that the opposite charge between Ba, Y, and Zr with O/N assured the M–   O/N ionic bonding interactions. Keywords: Density functional theory, metals, bonding, atom–in–molecules, bond critical point, electron localization functions
