However, the specific contributions to this interaction are still a matter of debate. The contributing forces can be broken down into <a href="/wiki/London_dispersion_force" title="London dispersion force">dispersion</a>/<a href="/wiki/Van_der_Waals_force" title="Van der Waals force">van der Waals</a> interactions, <a href="/wiki/Electrostatic_attraction" class="mw-redirect" title="Electrostatic attraction">electrostatic</a> interactions, and orbital mixing (CT) interactions.<sup id="cite_ref-:1_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> These contributing attractive forces are invoked to explain the differences in bonding strength associated with different donor-acceptor pairs.

These regions have been referred to as the nucleophilic gate, the σ-hole regions which are electron depleted, and the electrophilic gate, the donor region which is electron enriched.<sup id="cite_ref-:4_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:4-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:N_sigma_star_orbital_interaction.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/13/N_sigma_star_orbital_interaction.jpg/394px-N_sigma_star_orbital_interaction.jpg" decoding="async" width="394" height="108" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/13/N_sigma_star_orbital_interaction.jpg/591px-N_sigma_star_orbital_interaction.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/13/N_sigma_star_orbital_interaction.jpg 2x" data-file-width="622" data-file-height="170" /></a><figcaption>Orbital mixing picture for n → σ* interaction as seen in various σ-hole interactions.</figcaption></figure> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Chalcogen_gate_topology.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Chalcogen_gate_topology.jpg/303px-Chalcogen_gate_topology.jpg" decoding="async" width="303" height="226" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Chalcogen_gate_topology.jpg/455px-Chalcogen_gate_topology.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Chalcogen_gate_topology.jpg/606px-Chalcogen_gate_topology.jpg 2x" data-file-width="983" data-file-height="732" /></a><figcaption>Visualization of the nucleophilic and electrophilic gates on S(CN)<sub>2</sub>.</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Evaluation">Evaluation</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chalcogen_bond&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Evaluation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="AIM">AIM</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chalcogen_bond&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: AIM"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Any electron donor can donate electrons into the σ-hole of a bonded chalcogen, including halogen anions, amines, and π electrons (such as benzene).

With regard to weak interactions, the design is aimed at tuning ligand docking/binding of drugs to biologically relevant molecules or proteins and associated biological effects from various binding modes.

There are very few examples known of intermolecular chalcogen bonding between a drug and its target.
