Tetrahedral models

The quantitative comparison of 5o values and s values calculated for the tetrahedral model with C-H = 1.09 A. and C-C = 1.54 A. leads to C-C = 1.54 = = 0.02 A., the inner ring being ignored as usual and the third ring with its shelf omitted from consideration because of its unsymmetrical shape. [Pg.646]

The band at 2223 cm-1 was deduced to have tetrahedral symmetry from the splitting that occurs upon a partial isotopic substitution of D for H (Bai et al., 1985) as was discussed in Section III.3. This band also shows a stress splitting pattern that can be fit with a tetrahedral model (Bech Nielsen et al., 1989). The suggestion (Bai et al., 1985) that this center may be a SiH4 or VH4 complex has been retained as a possible explanation of the symmetry determined by uniaxial stress techniques. [Pg.188]

Within this historical setting, the actual birth of stereochemistry can be dated to independent publications by J. H. van t Hoff and J. A. Le Bel within a few months of each other in 1874. Both scientists suggested a three-dimensional orientation of atoms based on two central assumptions. They assumed that the four bonds attached to a carbon atom were oriented tetrahedrally and that there was a correlation between the spatial arrangement of the four bonds and the properties of molecules, van t Hoff and Le Bell proposed that the tetrahedral model for carbon was the cause of molecular dissymmetry and optical rotation. By arguing that optical activity in a substance was an indication of molecular chirality, they laid the foundation for the study of intramolecular and intermolecular chirality. [Pg.4]

Sometimes, the term equivalent is used instead of strict sense. This can be confusing. For instance, in an equilateral triangle the three sites are equivalent, but in a linear case they are not equivalent. However, the term equivalent might not be suitable to distinguish between square and tetrahedral models. In both cases, identical sites are also equivalent because of symmetry. Yet, one has strict identical sites and the other weak identical sites in the sense defined here. For more details, see Chapter 6. [Pg.34]

This is sometimes referred to as the identical-symmetrical case. Symmetry in itself is not enough to distinguish between a weak and strict sense. (Both linear and triangle, and similarly square and tetrahedral, models are symmetric.) Perhaps the requirement of the arrangement with highest symmetry better characterizes the identity in the strict sense. [Pg.145]

In the tetrahedral model, which possesses the highest symmetry, all the sites are identical in the strict sense. This means that there is only one (first) intrinsic binding constant, only one pair correlation, one triplet and one quadruplet correlation. [Pg.196]

Owing to the importance of the tetrahedral model for hemoglobin, we present also the form of the correlation functions in the limit T 0. Recall (Section 4.7) that in this limit all the subunits change simultaneously from H to L. Thus, we have a two-state adsorbing system. In this case the intrinsic binding constant is... [Pg.201]

Judging from the shapes of the Bis, we should conclude that the square model is more cooperative than the tetrahedral model. Indeed, all the cooperativities in this system are larger for the square model. We have computed all the correlations for these two models, using the parameters in (6.6.5). These yield for the square model... [Pg.203]

The average correlation, plotted as f(C)- 1, shows that the square model starts initially with a small positive value and increases monotonously to the very large value of 37,348 at C -> < . On the other hand, the g(C) - 1 curve for the tetrahedral model starts from a very small value and reaches the value of about 21,058 at very high concentrations. Clearly, both of the Bis appear as positive cooperative, but with much stronger cooperativity for the square model, in apparent defiance of the density of interaction argument. [Pg.203]

Note that in the square model only nearest-neighbor pairs are assigned an energy parameter a, while in the tetrahedral model each pair of ligands contributes a factor a. Both of these functions gave a good fit to experimental data with k = 0.033, and a = 12 for the square model and a = 12 = 5.2 for the tetrahedral model. [Pg.210]

However, even for members of class a, reflection and permutation are not necessarily equivalent. For example, interchange of (achiral) ligands at an equatorial and an apical site of a trigonal bipyramidal skeleton yields a diastereomer. The tetrahedral skeleton (with achiral ligands) is unique in showing this property. Thus, even given the importance of this skeleton, it would be unwise to base broadly applicable terms on observations which are only valid for tetrahedral models. [Pg.15]

In the initial confusion, it was the great achievement of Emil Fischer to disengage himself from Van t Hoff s method of writing configurational formulas, and to go back to the ordered tetrahedral models themselves, for which he had to invent a projection of the steric arrangement onto the plane of depiction. [Pg.35]

Formulate the bonding in NH2 in terms of delocalized molecular orbitals. The molecule is trigonal-pyramidal (C3V point group). Compare the general molecular-orbital description with a localized tetrahedral model for NH3. Discuss the values of the following bond angles H—N—H, 107° H— P—H (in PH2), 94° and F—N —F (in NF3 ), 103 °. [Pg.136]

Measurements of the magnetic susceptibility (58) of the cobalt enzyme (Table 5) show that the metal ion is bound as high-spin Co (II). The intensity of the visible absorption makes an octahedral coordination, as well as tetragonal distortions thereof, very unlikely. In the combination with CN, the Co(II) enzyme exhibits the spectral features of tetrahedral model complexes with regard to intensity as well as structure both in the visible and the near-infrared wavelength regions (Fig. 8). The width of the near-infrared band (cf. 20) indicates that the deviation... [Pg.168]

Linnett s procedure may be viewed as a refinement of classical structural theory In Linnett s theory, the van t Hoff-Lewis tetrahedral model is applied twice, once to each set of spins, with the assumption that, owing to coulombic repulsions between electrons of opposite spin, there may be, in some instances, a relatively large degree of spatial anticoincidence between a system s two spin-sets. [Pg.36]

The complexes of nickel and palladium, with a coordination number four mentioned above, are interesting because here a plane configuration occurs, which is inexplicable on the basis of the electrostatic theory the latter leads to a tetrahedral model. The diamagnetism also points to the formation of electron pairs in the bonding. The possibility of the occurrence of cis and trans isomers, as in the octahedral complexes, is in agreement with a plane structure, but incompatible with a tetrahedral arrangement. [Pg.175]

The wave-mechanical theory of the atomic bond leads to a more detailed picture of the multiple bond (Penney), no longer based on a tetrahedral model. [Pg.180]
