Hydrogen bonding operators

NH3 has hydrogen bonds operating between its molecules, but not PH3. NH3 contains a hydrogen atom directly bonded to the small, highly electronegative atom, N. 

They have dispersion and dipole-dipole intermolecular forces operating between their molecules. However, CH3CH2OH has hydrogen bonds operating between its molecules, and CH3OCH3 does not. Therefore, CH3OCH3 will have the lower boiling point. 

The focus of the present chapter is upon thiocarbamide derivatives and in particular upon the persistence of N-H... S hydrogen bonding operating in their crystal structures. 

The frequencies are for liquids or solids, where hydrogen bonding operates. 

The ortho effect may consist of several components. The normal electronic effect may receive contributions from inductive and resonance factors, just as with tneta and para substituents. There may also be a proximity or field electronic effect that operates directly between the substituent and the reaction site. In addition there may exist a true steric effect, as a result of the space-filling nature of the substituent (itself ultimately an electronic effect). Finally it is possible that non-covalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonding or charge transfer, may take place. The role of the solvent in both the initial state and the transition state may be different in the presence of ortho substitution. Many attempts have been made to separate these several effects. For example. Farthing and Nam defined an ortho substituent constant in the usual way by = log (K/K ) for the ionization of benzoic acids, postulating that includes both electronic and steric components. They assumed that the electronic portion of the ortho effect is identical to the para effect, writing CTe = o-p, and that the steric component is equal to the difference between the total effect and the electronic effect, or cts = cr — cte- They then used a multiple LFER to correlate data for orrAo-substituted reactants. 

For 1,2,3-triazole, the Ti (N ), i-ti (N, N ), and Ti fC) carbene coordination modes prevail in organometallic compounds. Benzotriazole has the same general pattern but often operates as a composite unit of benzotriazole and benzotriazolate linked by the hydrogen bond. In some organoosmium compounds, the i-ti (N, ) mode is realized, where the C -center refers to the annulated benzene ring. In some variations, together with the i-ti (N, N ) mode, the Ti fN" ) monodentate coordination occurs. The I-ti (N, N ) mode can also be traced.
