I-X (X=O, N, C) bonding was analyzed in the related hypervalent iodine compounds based on the adaptive natural density partitioning (AdNDP) approach. The results confirm the presence of a I > X sigma dative bond, as opposed to the widely used I=X notation. A clear formulation of the electronic structure of these hypervalent iodine compounds would be useful in establishing reaction mechanisms and electronic structures in bioinorganic problems of general applicability.
