Hydrogen bonds: stories and studies

DFT-PBE, DFT-D, and MP2 Studies on the H2O•••HNH and HOH•••NH2 Hydrogen Bonds in Water-Aniline Complexes

DFT-GGA method of Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) is used with aug-cc-PVTZ, 6-311++G**, and Def2-TZVP large basis sets to study the hydrogen bond interactions between oxygen lone pair as a donor electron with hydrogen atom connected to the aniline’s nitrogen as an electron acceptor (H2O···HNH-Ph), and nitrogen lone pair with hydrogen of water molecule (Ph-H2N···HOH...

DFT and AIM studies of intramolecular hydrogen bonds in dicoumarols

Density functional calculations with Becke’s three parameter hybrid method using the correlation functional of Lee, Yang and Parr (B3LYP) were carried out for 3,30-benzylidenebis(4-hydroxycoumarin) (phenyldicoumarol, PhDC), 3,30-methylenebis(4-hydroxycoumarin) (dicoumarol, DC) and the parent compound, 4-hydroxycoumarin (4-HC). Different basis sets were tested in the course of the calculations: ...

Syntheses and structural studies of Schiff bases involving hydrogen bonds.

New Schiff bases have been prepared by reacting 3-hydroxy-4-pyridine- carboxaldehyde with various amines. NMR spectroscopic methods provided clear evidence that the Schiff bases exist in the solid state and in solution as hydroxyimino tautomers with the E-configuration. A study of the stabilities of the tautomeric forms and the different conformers has been carried out using density functional ...

Designing ternary cocrystals with hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds.

A graded selection of hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds allows for the isolation of 2 : 1 : 1 ternary cocrystals of the general form 4-nitrobenzamide : diacid : 1,4-dihalogenated benzene, which are mediated by the amide-acid and I···O2N supramolecular synthons.
