Preferred Label : stereoelectronic;
IUPAC definition : Pertaining to the dependence of the properties (especially the energy) of a molecular
entity in a particular electronic state (or of a transition state ) on relative nuclear
geometry. The electronic ground state is usually considered, but the term can apply
to excited states as well. Stereoelectronic effects arise from the different alignment
of electronic orbitals in different arrangements of nuclear geometry.;
