Topics to be covered reside at the forefront of modern main-group element (s and p-block) chemistry. We use quantum chemical calculations to elucidate reaction mechanisms and to investigate the relationships between structure and chemical reactivity. Physical properties are probed for main-group element molecules and materials. Interesting or unusual chemical bonding scenarios are illuminated via wavefunction analysis.
