This better be good.
The JACS paper is locked, but important papers like this should not be.

Be interesting to see how this idea explains the difference in delocalised electron charge distribution between carbonyl/ketone groups and CO molecules. That's my personal acid test. If it can handle that, I'd certainly look into it further.

It's unlikely to help with that - it seems to be all about atoms rather tha n molecules.
Why the triple bond in the carbon monoxide molecule (or a metal carbonyl) s hould look much like the double bond in an aldehyde or a ketone (let alone a carboxylic acid) is the sort of question that somebody like Cursitor Doom would ask - presumably he got misinformed about it in sixth form (final ye ar secondary school) and hasn't learned anything about it since then.

Thanks, I'm fortunate to have access, but many are not. Well, at least they made an image of the table available.
