150 Ingo Krossing Fig. 12 Charge delocalization in S82+ teractions leads to the observed slightly shortened S-S bond lengths and the small long-short-short-long bond lengths alternation starting from the api- cal sulfur atom [23]. 7.4 Bonding in S192+ Little is known about the S192+ dication and no quantum chemical calcula- tion of this species has been reported to date. However, by analogy to the bonding modes established for S82+ it was suggested that the marked bond length alternation within the two seven membered rings, which decreases with increasing distance from the tricoordinate sulfur atoms, is due to mul- tiple 3p2!3s* interactions. The tricoordinate sulfur atoms in S192+ are, pre- sumably, the only atoms that only possess a 3s2 lone pair, but no 3p2 lone pair orbital. The unfavorable localized positive charge formally residing on the two tricoordinate chalcogen atoms is then delocalized by several 3p2!3s* interactions, which transfer electron density from the vicinal 3p2 lone pair orbitals into the empty, antibonding 3s* orbital of the bonds adja- cent to the tricoordinate atoms. Therefore the bonds around the tricoordi- nate chalcogen atoms are relatively long. Strong interactions around the tri- coordinate sulfur atoms, in turn, induce a positive charge to reside on the vicinal sulfur atoms which is then subsequently delocalized by the formation of further 3p2!3s* interactions. This and the bond lengths alternation in- herent in an S7 ring [30, 31] lead to the bond lengths alternation observed throughout the seven membered rings. 8 Summary, Conclusion, and Outlook Homoatomic sulfur cation are a fascinating class of compounds that maxi- mize non-classical bonding in their solid state structures. Synthesis as well as quantum chemical calculations of these species are difficult but yet possi- ble tasks and their structures and bonding interactions are now well under- stood.
