This article proposes a definition for the term pnictogen bond and lists its donors, acceptors, and characteristic features, aiming to identify a specific subset of inter- and intramolecular interactions formed by elements of Group 15.
This article proposes a definition for the term pnictogen bond and lists its donors, acceptors, and characteristic features. These may be invoked to identify this specific subset of the inter- and intramolecular interactions formed by elements of Group 15 which possess an electrophilic site in a molecular entity.
