H-71 Interactions

The other type of interaction, a ti-ti interaction, is found in crystals of PAHs these are rich in delocalized electrons and mainly consist of sp carbon atoms with peripheral hydrogen atoms attached. Their structures resemble that of graphite in which planar hexagonally disposed layers of carbon atoms are separated by about 4 A. Large PAHs also form molecular complexes with other flat 

The two molecules forming such a Ti-complex consist of a donor molecule with a low ionization potential so that an electron can be readily lost (a delocalized TT-electron of the PAH) and an acceptor molecule with a high affinity for electrons (the aromatic ring of trinitrobenzene which is electron-poor because the three nitro groups pull electrons out of it). As a result, stacks of alternating donor and acceptor molecules are found in the crystal. The relative orientations within the parallel planes of these donor and acceptor molecules are determined, to a considerable extent, by the orientations of charge distributions of the 

In some complexes of this type, charge transfer can occur between the two molecular components. This is evident if there is a special spectral band corresponding to the charge transfer. In such compounds, however, it is also found that the interplanar spacing of flat molecules is smaller than usual. Thus, while the normal spacing is 3.4 A, it can decrease to 3.1 A in a charge-transfer complex. 

The geometry of the interactions of metal ions with selected side-chain groups found in proteins will now be considered this provides a promising avenue for the design of supramolecular metal ion-complexing agents.

As expected, molecule 42 assembled into 2D undulated hcb nets with large cavities through synthons 1 and 3 respectively, without or in the presence of methanol solvent (Fig. 3.23a). Three such nets are further interpenetrated through multiple C-H---71 interactions in a Borromean way that none of them are catenated but altogether they are not separable (Fig. 3.23b). One particular feature of the structure obtained from methanol is that it contains both the two different Borromean weaves shown in Fig. 3.23b with a 2 1 ratio within the same structure.

In a lipid environment, van der Waals interactions become less specific. Electrostatic effects are enhanced up to 40-fold (according to Coulomb s law) due to the low dielectric constant, e s 2, of the hydrophobic core of membranes. As a result, weak electrostatic interactions, e.g., between the 71-electrons of an aromatic ring and a cation [51], may come into play. In addition, H-bond interactions, which can be considered as dipole-dipole interactions can also become relevant.

The substituents at C-3 and C-5 may also have stacking interactions in the crystal and thus packing forces can dictate the preferential conformation of the 1,2,4-trioxolane ring as the C-5 and peroxide envelope or even the half chair conformations are energetically close. For instance in the 6,7,8-trioxa-3-thiabicyclo[3.2.1]octane 21, centrosym-metrical pairs are formed by 71-71 stacking between two phenyl rings combined with two weak C-H- -n interactions <2000AXC1510>.

Tissue Disposition and Pharmacological Effects of Liposomes In Vivo -Since the initial publication of studies involving injection of liposome-entrapped substances In vivo,H 71.72 there has been an increasing number of studies on both the altered tissue distribution and also on the increased pharmacological efficacy of encapsulated agents. The subject has been reviewed recently.13 15,20, The most important points for future consideration include the permeability properties of liposomes in a physiological environment, their interaction with plasma components, the role of liposome size and chemistry in determining the rate of removal from the circulation and their tissue localization at the cellular level. 

The proton transfer reaction along a hydrogen bond between aliphatic dicarbox-ylic acids and DABCO, investigated by solid state NMR (Fig. 3.2.24), has shown that intramolecular O-H O and intermolecular N H-O hydrogen bonds are strong interactions, with proton chemical shifts of around 16 1.5 ppm, and N-0 and 0-0 bond lengths of around 2.55-2.60 A, while intermolecular N+-H- - O interactions are weaker and are characterised by a S1H of about 12.3 ppm and by an N-0 bond length of about 2.7 A [71, 72],...
