abstract = {The π-bonded tetracyanoethylene anion dimer
$(TCNE_2^2−)$ and the neutral $K_2TCNE_2$ system have been
investigated to obtain new insights into the unique features
of two-electron multicenter (2e–mc) π-pancake bonding.
The inter-radical interaction leads to a significant
diradicaloid character described by two singly occupied
molecular orbitals (SOMOs) of the monomers. A highly
correlated approach, the multireference averaged quadratic
coupled-cluster (MR-AQCC) method, has been used to achieve a
balanced description of the different types of electron
correlation that occur in this system. The analysis of the
interaction energies for the two systems in the singlet and
the lowest triplet states and of the unpaired electron
densities demonstrate the importance of diradical π bonding
in addition to the conventional van der Waals interactions
that occur in intermolecular interactions. In this analysis,
the separation of the repulsive Coulomb interaction energies
from the remaining terms turned out to be a crucial
prerequisite to achieve consistent results. Our calculations
also confirm that the driving force behind the energetic
stability of the pancake bonds predominantly derives from
the overlap of the SOMO–SOMO bonding interaction.},
