Abstract: | Summary. The topological parameters derived from the Bader theory such as the electron density and its Laplacian at the ring critical point (RCP) are analysed here as possible measures of the H-bond stength for intramolecular H-bonds.
The parameters of RCP correlate well with the other properties of intramolecular H-bonds which are known as good measures
of the H-bond strength. The calculations were performed on two samples of compounds with intramolecular H-bonds: the derivatives
of malonaldehyde and the derivatives of o-hydroxybenzaldehyde. MP2 and HF calculations were carried out using a 6-311++G** basis set.
