Abstract We report sufficient theoretical evidence of the energy stability of the e + ⋅H 2 2− molecule, formed by two H − anions and one positron. Analysis of the electronic and positronic densities of the latter compound undoubtedly points out the formation of a positronic covalent bond between the otherwise repelling hydride anions. The lower limit for the bonding energy of the e + ⋅H 2 2− molecule is 74 kJ mol −1 (0.77 eV), accounting for the zero‐point vibrational correction. The formation of a non electronic covalent bond is fundamentally distinct from positron attachment to stable molecules, as the latter process is characterized by a positron affinity, analogous to the electron affinity.
