The special salt effect is a constant feature of the activation of substrates in cages subsequent to ET from electron-reservoir complexes. In the present case, the salt effect inhibits the C-H activation process [59], but in other cases, the result of the special effect can be favorable. For instance, when the reduction of a substrate is expected, one wishes to avoid the cage reaction with the sandwich. An example is the reduction of alkynes and of aldehydes or ketones [60], These reductions follow a pathway which is comparable to the one observed in the reaction with 02. In the absence of Na + PFg, coupling of the substrate with the sandwich is observed. Thus one equiv. Na+PFg is used to avoid this cage coupling and, in the presence of ethanol as a proton donor, hydrogenation is obtained (Scheme VII). 

The observed increase in CH formation and simultaneous decrease in CO formation with increasing catalyst potential and work function i.e. with increasing supply of O2 to the catalyst is remarkable and can be attributed to the preferential formation on the Rh surface of electron donor hydrogenated carbonylic species leading to formation of CH4 and to the decreasing coverage of more electron acceptor carbonylic species resulting in CO formation.59... 

Methods that deduce a pharmacophore, an arrangement in 3D space of features that contribute or detract from binding and look for its presence in the database that is searched. This method places emphasis on features like hydrogen bond donors, hydrogen bond acceptors, acidic or basic units and hydrophobic fragments and opens the possibility of identifying unexpected scaffolds with required features (pharmacophore-based VS or PHBVS).

Prausnitz and coworkers [91,92] developed a model which accounts for nonideal entropic effects by deriving a partition function based on a lattice model with three categories of interaction sites hydrogen bond donors, hydrogen bond acceptors, and dispersion force contact sites. A different approach was taken by Marchetti et al. [93,94] and others [95-98], who developed a mean field theory... 

The proton-acceptor capability of some 2-acetylselenophenes in dilute sulfuric acid has been determined by the 1H NMR method.97 With phenol as proton donor, hydrogen-bond formation can be studied using IR spectroscopy as the analytical method.98 Intramolecular hydrogen-bond formation... 

An alternative approach by Zhu et al. (1990) yielded a similar activation energy (for P), while providing new information on the donor-hydrogen dissociation reaction. With electrical measurements they studied the electric-field induced migration of hydrogen that is thermally released from PH...

Fig. 23. Schematic representation of the group IV donor-hydrogen complex with hydrogen in AB site. The black spheres represent the group V atoms (As), the large white ones the group III atoms (Ga), the small white one the hydrogen atom and the dotted sphere the impurity. The lone pair on the threefold coordinated group V atom is not represented.
