50. Note that there are certain difficulties when comparing the electronegativities of d- and f-block elements due to a number of factors, such as variable oxidation states and ambiguities in determining the valence electron density. For such reasons, the commonly used Paulings scale [21] cannot be relied upon here. We refer to J.K. Nagle, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 112 (1990) 4741.
