The nature of the chemical bond in 31 oxyanionic crystals was analyzed using <i>ab initio</i> calculations and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM). The QTAIM topological analysis of the calculated electron densities in oxyanionic crystals revealed that some of the metal-oxygen, metal⋯metal, metal-ligand and hydrogen bonds are partly covalent in nature. The covalency criteria for metal-oxygen and hydrogen bonds based on electron densities at the bond critical points were obtained. The de ...[more]
