Polar fragments

A fragment is an atom or group of atoms bounded by ICs and all except hydrogen are considered polar. A fragment may have many internal bonds, but those connecting it to ICs are called valence bonds. Valence bonds are most often single, but can be aromatic. Polar fragments can interact in various ways. 

To quantitate this interaction, several types of polar fragments need to be defined ... 

Dimerization of pyrazolines-2 on the action of oxidants includes the formation and doubling of cation-radicals (Morkovnik and Okhlobystin 1979). The doubling process is usually characterized by the terms head and tail. The term head is applicable to the position bearing a polar fragment, whereas the term tail is adopted for an unsaturated molecular site. The reaction under consideration follows the head-to-head order. This means that the doubling cation-radical has only a single position with the maximal density of an unpaired electron (Scheme 3.11).

The circles and ellipses stand for polar fragments the elongated rectangles, the wavy and straight lines depict hydrophobic fragments. Examples of substances forming the depicted structures are given in Fig. 3.

In addition to the polar fragments, KOWWIN finds these strings which require structural corrections ... 

To fully interpret these details, it is necessary to refer to the User s Guide. X refers to a halogen other than fluorine Y refers to a polar fragment Fragbranch refers to the unique lowering of the hydrophobicity of chains radiating from phosphate, phosphonate, and tertiary amine fragments. The three X-C-X factors are the same as seen in chloroform the... 

Another study on these variegated cells depicting an amphiphile revealed a temperature effect on the critical micelle concentration (cmc) that was minimal at about PB(W) = 0.25. Experimentally, the minimal cmc value occurs at about 25 °C.64 The onset of the cmc was also modeled and shown to be dependent on a modestly polar fragment of the amphiphile.

An atom (or a molecule) is said to be polarized with respect to a particular coordinate system (e.g., laboratory or parent molecule body fixed system) if any of its internal angular momenta are either aligned or oriented. The limit of a non-polarized fragment corresponds to equal populations in all the Mj sublevels of a given J. The system exhibits alignment when the populations are unequal in the Mj levels for a given J but cylindrical symmetry is preserved by equal populations in +Mj and —Mj levels. Orientation corresponds to the case where the +Mj and —Mj populations are not equal for any one of the Mj values (see Fig. 7.11). 

Fragment values (f) are provided in this chapter for over 100 atoms or atom groups. A fragment has different f values, depending on the type of structure (e.g., aliphatic or aromatic) it is bonded to. Thus, in total, about 200 f values are available. Fourteen different factors must be considered these take into account molecular flexibility (e.g., possible rotation around bonds), unsaturation, multiple halogenation, branching, and interactions with H-polar fragments. 

An H-polar fragment is one that can be expected to participate in hydrogen bonding, either as a donor or an acceptor, such as -NH, - OH, -0-, and -COjH. For such fragments a factor may have to be added that takes into account hydrogen bonding or interactions with nearby halogens.
