%X For 1 : 1 molecular complexes involving an n-type electron donor and an a&#963;-type electron acceptor, it is proved that the simplest Mulliken description, &#936;N &#8776; &#936;(D,A)+&#955;&#936;(D+-A-), is equivalent to using a one-electron bond as the intermolecular bond between the donor (D) and the acceptor (A). The theory is illustrated with reference to the Hassel compound Me3N...I2, and the charge-transfer aspects of hydrogen bonding for the water dimer.
