Does anybody knows how to study this fenomenum using the most standar methods in quantum chemistry? For instance, demonstration of posSibility of charge tranSfer (ct) directionality of this ct, spectroscopy evidence of it... Is there any review or general literature about the posible methodology? I will appreciate any comment or suggestion thanks in advance reynier
