Notes:
On the basis of a high-quality LCAO MO SCF calculation, covalency versus ionicity of a Co-F bond in the CoF6(n-) complexes, where n = 4, 3, and 2, is discussed. The overlap and gross atomic populations, delocalization of certain MOS, and the charge densities in the bond region as well as around F's all indicate that the covalency increases as n decreases or the valency of Co increases in these complexes.
