@paracetamol Better post stuff like that in the Spring cleaning chat without ping. We'll get around to looking at those things eventually. It usually is low priority, but it'll be taken care of.

Funny I just ran into this meme today haha

> Now, UCLA researchers have discovered a chemical reaction—that might someday be used to process petroleum into useful compounds—in which non-classical carbocations play key roles. The results, published July 27 in the journal Science, underscore the importance of non-classical cations—ions with fewer electrons than protons, and thus a positive charge.

@Martin-マーチン Roger! Thanks :-)
@M.A.R.! How dare you adopt a new display photo! ಠ_ಠ
Hmm, 3-centre, 2-electron bonds, eh? :D
@ringo Yes? :-)
Is "xxx", perhaps some portent of impending doom? O:)
@paracetamol What? Did I upload something else?
What do you see?
Is it trihydrogen?
Erm, an {H3}^+ ion?
It's supposed to be a twist-boat cyclohexane
@M.A.R.ಠ_ಠ Yep X3
i.stack.imgur is censored
That's why I can't see what I have uploaded
14:31
Ah....
It's still H3+ btw :/
Check if it's changed on the main site
@M.A.R.ಠ_ಠ Though your Chem.SE profile shows the twist-boat cyclohexane ._.
@paracetamol Oh K. You should wait a couple of minutes for chat to catch up
14:33
Right O:)
Sigh Should've figured out there was a catch when you said you'd be adopting a consistent name :3
Sigh
My avatar was never consistent
Nods head disapprovingly
@paracetamol Sigh
Waves and leaves
See ya o/
14:37
\o/
Leave already
/o/

*\o/
\o/*
Sigh gasp shudder
The hand-waving ritual has come to an end, good bye O:)

Can anyone please tell me the name of the compound CH2=CH-O-CH2-CH3 ?
16:29
Is it ethenyl ethyl ether or anything else?

Are three downvotes enough to register a case of serial downvoting?
@M.A.R.ಠ_ಠ I see you've become a normie too
With a chem molecule as your avatar
Smh

@Entrepreneur ethoxyethene
@AvnishKabaj shut up
Or maybe sigh
Siiiiiiigh
@Entrepreneur Alkoxy alkene
Oh wait, @Loong the master nomenclator responded already
@orthocresol ah now I feel I've ruined it
@ringo You feel right
Seemed like too much of an answer for a comment but it didn't seem worth writing at all after I posted it.
Anyway, someone should go to meta and ask for a bounty reward for the 100kth post
So we can downvote the meta post

Q: Are diffuse functions incompatible with Wiberg bond index analysis?

OhLookSomeone told me that I have to ditch diffuse functions if I want to get reasonable Wiberg bond orders in my calculations. Is that correct? If so, how do diffuse functions negatively affect calculated bond orders? And how do I get reliable bond orders when I have to use diffuse functions?
