45. The NBO analysis [A. E. Reed, R. B. Weinstock, and F. Weinhold, J. Chem. Phys. 83, 35 (1985)] shows that there exist three bonding orbitals (each of them has an occupancy of two electrons) between Pb and O atoms. Their orbital energies and compositions are, respectively, -0.5042 a.u. and 0.397 (s p10.81 d0.05) Pb +0.918 (s p4.50) O, -0.2581 a.u. and 0.406 pPb +0.914 pO, and -0.2581 a.u. and 0.406 pPb +0.914 pO.
