  Noncovalent interactions are mainly classified into van der Waals forces and local weak electron density sharing (WEDS) interactions. The latter are especially significant in influencing the reactivity of reactions involving transition metals. The presence of attractive WEDS in pre-reactive complexes indicates a system’s readiness to overcome the transition state in a concerted reaction. Utilizing the Independent Gradient Model (IGM), which measures WEDS interaction strength, highlights notable electron density redistribution events along a reaction pathway and helps identify how atomic centers around the reaction site contribute to these changes. Moreover, IGM offers new insights into coordinatively unsaturated systems and provides a fresh perspective on their stability under typical conditions.
