as if these hypercoordinated molecules, with assumed 2c-2e bonds, would have violated the doublet/octet rule of Lewis ; i.e. it has been considered that each atom is surrounded by more than the two (eight) atoms allowed for s (s and p) orbitals. On the other hand, several works have discussed that hypervalent molecules do not violate the doublet/octet rule . On the other hand, it has also been commented that the octet rule can be violated in hypervalent units . In many of these works, it has been proposed that the terms "hypervalence" and "hypervalent" should be sent to the graveyard and replaced by more convenient terms, like "hypercoordinated" or "hypobound" .
