Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this paper, we show that the ambiphilic properties of some organic ligands in organometallic complexes may be retrieved readily from simple calculations in the framework of conceptual density functional theory (C-DFT): namely, the dual descriptor (DD) and the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of the ligands afford a rather straightforward interpretation of experimental trends such as the bonding geometry and the electronic properties of complexes in terms of σ-, π- and back-bonding. The studied ligands were chosen to be representative of the wide variety organometallic chemistry offers, ranging from neutral to charged systems and from diatomic to polyatomic molecules. The present approach is general since all relevant parameters are retrieved from the electron density, obtained either from a DFT or post-Hartree-Fock calculation. It is believed to be helpful for organometallic chemists, since it allows a deep understanding and may be used as a predictive tool of the coordinating properties of ligands.
