Main-group chemistry

a bonding scheme in which three atoms share four electrons over bonding and nonbonding orbitals, used to explain hypervalent molecules without d-orbitals.

In main-group chemistry, three-center four-electron bond refers to a bonding scheme in which three atoms share four electrons over bonding and nonbonding orbitals, used to explain hypervalent molecules without d-orbitals. This meaning comes from Pimentel (1951) in The Journal of Chemical Physics.[1]
