The relationship of xo, the absolute electronegativity, and 7, the absolute hardness, to chemical bonding in Lewis acid-base complexes is examined. This is done by using semiempirical MO theory in which the same experimental parameters appear. The a priori electronegativity of a Lewis acid or base i
It is shown that the incorrect trends in the calculated values of absolute hardness parameter, q, for atoms based on the finite difference method, f (I-EA), disappear if the density functional theoretic definition, 1 (S2E/Sn2) is used. Parr and Pearson [ 11 defined the absolute hardness parameter,
