Preferred Label : pre-reactive complexes;
IUPAC definition : Weakly bound complexes with a potential minimum that precedes the activation barrier
along the reaction path. In contrast with the van der Waals complexes, which fall
apart reversibly into their constituents, the pre-reactive complexes may undergo a
vigorous reaction to form different products.;
