delocalize

To broaden the scope of something (to make it more global).

This combined view of the greatness of events and the feebleness of the human mind, never appears to startlingly distinct as upon the occurrence of those extraordinary crises, which, so to speak, entirely delocalize man, and transport him to a different sphere.

This constant desire for what we do not have, delocalizes — drives from Maine its natives and sends them to alien soil — to California, and vice versa.

To contain an electron in an orbital that extends over several adjacent atoms.

In molecular orbital theory it is thus the fact that the 2p electrons become completely delocalized that causes the lowering of the energy and of the bond distance compared to the average of the values for single and double bonds.

This is shown in Input 10.6 for a calculation of D-BOVB type, in which the π spectator orbitals are allowed to delocalize.

To remove from a locality.

Often, the wardens who happen to be nearby tranquillize the aggressive animal and delocalize it.
