Favorable interactions

For example, 130 kj/iriol of favorable Interaction minns 80 kJ/mol of nnfavorahle interaction eqnals a net free energy of association of 50 kj/mol. 

The Michael addition of enamines to nitroalkenes proceeds with high Yyn selectivity. The Yyn selectivity is explained by an acyclic synclinal model, in which there is some favorable interaction between the nitro group and the nitrogen lone pair of the enamine group CEq. 4.67i. Both Z- and E-nitrostyrenes afford the same product in over 90% diastereoselecdvity. 

Reductions of nitronitriles situated to favor interaction are apt to involve both functions (S4,93). Hydrogenation of o-nitrobenzonitrile over either palladium or platinum gave o-aminobenzamide (78), with the amide oxygen transferred from the nitro group (66). On the other hand, l-amino-2-cyanonaphthalene gave the amino amide on reduction over Pt02, but the amino nitrile over palladium (82). 

Additionally, it was found that the energy difference between the two transition states (3 and 4) is determined mainly by the difference in the conformational energy of the a-chloro aldehyde in the two transition states i.e., the energetic preference of transition state 3 over 4 is due to a more favorable conformation of the aldehyde rather than a more favorable interaction with the attacking nucleophile. In fact, interaction between lithium hydride and 2-chloropropanal stabilizes transition state 4, which yields the minor diastereomer. 

Water is a polar molecule and as a result will orient itself differently around cations and anions. It will align its dipole to present the most favorable interaction possible hydrogen atoms will be closer to an anion whereas oxygen atoms will be closer to a cation. 

From the expression, AGs value will be negative and hence the most favorable interaction between the clay and the rubber will take place when AHs is negative and A5s is positive. 

As an example of this nonlinear character we may consider two pairs of compounds, naphthalene versus quinoline and indole versus benzimidazole (Fig. 11.5). In both pairs of compounds the second differs from the first by a mutahon of an aromahc -CH group to an aromahc nitrogen, which introduces a strong H-bond acceptor into the molecule. In quinoline, which has no H-bond donor, the acceptor has no favorable interaction partner in the supercooled liquid or crystalline state, while it can make strong H-bonds with the solvent in water. Therefore, log Sw of quinoline is about 2 log units higher [35, 36] than that of naphthalene, i.e. the introduction of the H-bond acceptor strongly increases solubility in this...
