摘要
What could be simpler than C2, a diatomic molecule that has the second strongest homonuclear bond? This molecule turns out to be a microcosm of the bonding issues that bother chemists, as is shown in this trialogue. Join the three authors in their lively debate, light a candle, as Faraday did, and see the excited states of C2! Copyright © 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
