Amines hydrogen bonding between

Cellulose III. Cellulose III results from treatment of cellulose with Hquid ammonia (ammonia mercerization) or amines. Cellulose III can be made from either Cellulose I or II. When treated with water. Cellulose III can revert to its parent stmcture. Some cellulose III preparations are much more stable than other preparations. The intensities on diffraction patterns from Cellulose III differ slightly depending on whether the Cellulose III was made from Cellulose I or II, and thus these allomorphs are called IIIj or IHjj- Workers studying III concluded, based partiy on the results of I and II, that the packings of IIIj and IIIjj are parallel and antiparallel, respectively (67). IIIjj also is thought to have hydrogen bonds between the corner and center chains. 

The mechanism of the orf/to-dibromination of phenol with NBS in the presence of amines is considered as follows. The hydrogen bonding between phenol and N-bromoamine which are generated from the reaction of NBS and amines (ref. 14), is the driving force, and causes the bromination at one o/t/io-position of phenol and regeneration of the amines. A catalytic amount of the amines is enough because of the regeneration of the amines. The repetition of the above process causes one more substitution at the other orf/io-position of 2-bromophenol. In the cases of 2-substituted phenols the orf/io-bromination can occur only once (Scheme 5). 

Because the tertiary amines cannot be brominated by NBS, they do not influence the o/tAo-bromination of phenols. Though the hydrogen bonding between the phenolic OH and NBS will be formed, the bonding is inferred to be weaker than that between the OH and the (V-bromoamines. The nucleophilicity (or basicity) of the nitrogen atom of A -bromoamines is stronger than that of NBS. This is why traces of A -bromoamines can react with phenols continuously. 

Hydrogen bonding between Br2 and 2-substituted phenols having electron-donating group is strong enough to orf/io-brominate these phenols. Therefore, o/t/io-bromination of phenol, o-cresol and 2-allylphenol was promoted by only NBS without amines. 

There have been many studies on the formation of hydrogen bonds between alcohols and a wide range of bases. If the bases are of similar type (for example, all nitrogen donor atoms in amines), there is also frequently a rather good correlation between the shift of the O-H stretching band and other properties. For example, stretching frequency shifts of the OH bonds in alcohols have been correlated... 

The p-pleated sheet structure occurs in fibrous as well as globular proteins and is formed by intermolecular hydrogen bonds between a carboxyl group oxygen of one amino acid and an amine hydrogen of an adjacent polypeptide chain. Parallel p-pleated sheets form when the adjacent polypeptide chains are oriented in one direction (from N-terminal to C-terminal end or vice versa). Antiparallel p-pleated... 

The crystal and molecular structure79 of a carbazole/tetracyano ethylene 1 2 complex reveals the presence of a hydrogen bond between the amino group of the carbazole and a nitrile nitrogen of tetracyano ethylene in the solid state, which resembles the stronger hydrogen bond observed between amines and the cyano group. 

The main interaction of the complex of equilibrium 31 is probably a hydrogen bonding interaction between nitrofluorobenzenes and some amines. These complexes are more stable when the nitro groups are in position 2 of fluorobenzene than when they are in position 4. A reasonable explanation of this trend is the interaction of the ortho nitro group with the amine shown in 110, in which a second hydrogen bond (between the amino and the nitro groups) enhances the interaction.
