Frank A. Weinhold et al. report on page 1499 (DOI: 10.1002/jcc.23654 ) that quantitative NBO‐based evaluations of steric (left) and hyperconjugative (right) interactions in the illustrative model cis ‐2‐butene demonstrate the dominance of steric repulsions over attractive ′H‐H bonding′ in biphenyl and related species, contrary to inferences based on QTAIM analysis.
