Crossover from hydrogen to chemical bonding

B Dereka, Q Yu, NHC Lewis, WB Carpenter… - Science, 2021 - science.org
Hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) can be interpreted as a classical electrostatic interaction or as a
covalent chemical bond if the interaction is strong enough. As a result, short strong H-bonds …
