Abstract
A bond path linking two saturated fluorine atoms is found to be ubiquitous in crowded difluorinated aromatic compounds. The bond path is shown to persist for a range of internuclear distances (2.3-2.8 A) and a range of relative orientations of the two C-F internuclear axes. The F. . .F bonding is shown to exhibit all the hallmarks of a closed-shell weak interaction. The presence of such a bond path can impart as much as 14 kcal/mol of local stabilization to the molecule in which it exists, a stabilization that can be offset or even overwhelmed by destabilization of other regions in the molecule. Several other weak closed-shell interactions were also found and characterized including F. . .C, F. . .O, and C. . .C interactions, hydrogen bonding, dihydrogen bonding, and hydrogen-hydrogen bonding. This study represents another example of the usefulness and richness of the bond path concept and of the theory of atoms in molecules in general.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
