Quantum chemical calculations using ab initio methods at the CCSD(T) level with large basis sets and DFT calculations using the BP86 functional have been carried out for O-2(2+) and N An energy decomposition analysis of the chemical bonds suggests that the shorter bond in O-2(2+) compared with isoelectronic N-2 is due to the weaker Pauli repulsion in the dication, which overcompensates the weakening of attractive interactions that are operative in N-2. At the equilibrium distance of N-2, the orbital (covalent) bonding in O-2(2+) is weaker than in N-2, and the attractive Coulomb interactions in the neutral diatomic system become repulsive in the dication, but the weakening of the Pauli repulsion caused by the shrinking of the orbitals in O-2(2+) compensates for these forces and leads to a shortening of the bond. The results also show that the bond dissociation energy is not a reliable indicator for the strength of bond, which is more faithfully given by the (local) force constant.
