Abstract
⺠An overview of the “Ï-hole” concept is given. ⺠Ï-Holes on Groups IV-VII atoms explain many long known noncovalent interactions. ⺠Density difference plots of halogen bonding interactions are presented. ⺠Electrostatic potentials point to the fallacy of atomic charges. ⺠Electrostatics/polarization and dispersion can usually explain Ï-hole bonding.
