Abstract
The cation-substituted tetrahedrally coordinated octet compounds transform to NaCl-type structures at transition pressures . The dielectric theory of chemical bonding predicts these transition pressures and shows that the contribution of the bonding electrons to the tetrahedral-octahedral site energy difference is well localized.
