    We investigate the course of an elementary chemical reaction from the perspective of information theory in 3D space through the hypersurface of several information-theoretic (IT) functionals such as disequilibrium (D), Shannon entropy (S), Fisher information (I), and the complexity measures of Fisher-Shannon (FS) and López-Mancini-Calbet (LMC). The probe for the study is the hydrogenic identity abstraction reaction. In order to perform the analysis, the reactivity pattern of the reaction is examined by use of the aforementioned functionals of the single-particle density, which is analyzed in position (r) and momentum (p) spaces. The 3D analyses revealed interesting reactivity patterns in the neighborhood of the intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) path, which allow to interpret the reaction mechanism for this reaction in a novel manner. In addition, the chemically interesting regions that have been characterized through the information functionals and their complexity measures are depicted and analyzed in the framework of the three-dimensional structure of the information-theoretical data of a chemical reaction, that is, the reactant/product (R/P) complexes, the transition state (TS), and the ones that are only revealed through IT measures such as the bond-cleavage energy region (BCER), the bond-breaking/forming (B-B/F) region, and the spin-coupling (SC) process. Furthermore, focus has been placed on the diagonal part of the hypersurface of the IT functionals, aside from the IRC path itself, with the purpose of analyzing the dissociation process of the triatomic transition-state complex that has revealed other interesting features of the bond-breaking (B-B) process. In other respects, it is shown throughout the combined analyses of the 3D structure of the IT functionals in conjugated spaces that the chemically significant regions occurring at the onset of the TS are completely characterized by information-theoretic aspects of localizability (S), uniformity (D), and disorder. Further, novel regions of low complexity seem to indicate new boundaries for chemically stable complex molecules. Finally, the study reveals that the chemical reaction occurs at low-complexity regions, where the concurrent phenomena take place: bond-breaking/forming (B-B/F), bond-cleavage energy reservoirs (BCER), spin-coupling (SC), and transition state (TS).
