Abstract

Applying the maximum overlap criterion, the localized molecular
orbitals of square pyramidal (CH)/ cation have been determined.
The resulting multi-center bonding orbitals are examined
in detail. In addition, the basal C-C and all C-H bonds are compared
with those of the more familiar systems, e. g., cyclobutane
and cyclobutene.
