(Ï€ bond): a bond formed by the sideways overlap of orbitals; a bond in which the bonding electrons are most likely to be found in the regions above and below the nuclei of the bonded atoms.
covalent bond formed by overlap between two orbitals on different atoms (see sp). Pi bonds are superimposed on sigma bonds, forming double or triple bonds.
a bond formed by sidelong or lateral overlap of two p type orbitals (not by end-on or sigma type overlap)
a bond formed by the overlap of two unhybridized, parallel p orbitals through areas of low electron density
a covalent bond formed by electrons in overlapping parallel p orbitals
A covalent bond made by the sideways overlapping of two p orbitals. The second bond in a double bond is a pi bond.
A bond between two atoms that consists of two electrons occupying a bonding molecular orbital that has a nodal plane in its wavefunction.
In chemistry, pi bonds (Ï€ bonds) are covalent chemical bonds where two lobes of one involved electron orbital overlap two lobes of the other involved electron orbital. Only one of the orbital's nodal planes passes through both of the involved nuclei.
