Electronic charges acids, table

Upon dimerization, electron charge is transferred from the base (the H-acceptor molecule) to the acid (the H-donor molecule), in agreement with Lewis generalized definition of an acid and a base as an electron acceptor and donor, respectively. The amount of such a charge transfer (CT) is reported in Table 4, for the two SCF models considered in this paper and as a function of the basis set size. The CTs are small and, for the SCF-SM method, are found to decrease as the basis set size increases. 

A large number of 13C NMR studies on proline derivatives and proline peptides have appeared in the literature [815-830]. As the electron charge density of cis-proline carbons is different from that of franx-prolinc carbons, these isomers can be differentiated by nCNMR spectroscopy [826, 830]. On the basis of calculations Tonelli [831] predicted four conformations for the dipeptide Boc-Pro-Pro-OBzl, three of which could be detected by 13C NMR spectroscopy [826, 830], In proline-containing peptides the stereochemistry of the proline residue plays an important role for the conformation of these oligomers. The 13C chemical shift data of cis and trans proline derivatives, collected in Table 5.29, are useful to determine the stereochemistry of the amino acid-proline bond, e.g. in cyclo-(Pro-Gly)3, melanocyte-stimulating hormone release-inhibiting factor or thyrotropin-releasing hormone. 

The result of this inductive effect is that the electron density on the carboxylate anion is reduced, the negative charge is distributed over more atoms, and the chloroacetate anion is stabilized relative to acetate. Because the chloroacetate anion is more stable than the acetate ion, its conjugate acid, chloroacetic acid, is a stronger acid than the conjugate acid of the acetate ion, acetic acid (Table 3.1).

The aromatic ring has high electron density. As a result of this electron density, toluene behaves as a base, not only in aromatic ring substitution reactions but also in the formation of charge-transfer (tt) complexes and in the formation of complexes with super acids. In this regard, toluene is intermediate in reactivity between benzene and the xylenes, as illustrated in Table 2.

The acidic strength of various quinoxaline derivatives is also listed in Table II. -Methyl groups have an acid-weakening effect and quinoxalin-2-one (2-hydroxyquinoxaline) is, as expected, a weaker acid than quinoxaline-2-thione (2-mercaptoquinoxaline), The marked enhancement of the acidic strength of 5-hydroxyquinoxaline 1-methiodide compared to 5-hydroxyquinoxaline itself, is due to the electron-attracting property of the positively charged nitrogen, ...
