Atomic or molecular chemical species having a highly localized HOMO (The Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) act as Lewis bases. These chemical species have the ability to donate an electron pair to a given Lewis acid in order to form an adduct, as discussed earlier. The most common Lewis bases are ammonia, alkyl amines, and other conventional amines. Commonly, Lewis bases are anionic in nature and their base strength generally depends on the pKa of the corresponding parent acid. Since Lewis bases are electron-rich species that have the ability to donate electron-pairs, they can be classified as nucleophiles. Similarly, Lewis acids can be classified as electrophiles (since they behave as electron-pair acceptors).
