Cation–π–cation interactions in structural biology
Biological structures are stabilized by a variety of noncovalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonds, π –stacking, salt bridges or hydrophobic interactions. Besides hydrogen bonds and π– stacking, cation–π interactions between aromatic rings and positively charged groups have emerged as one of the most important interactions in structural biology. Although the role and energetic characteristic...
متن کاملThe Influence of Cation-π Interactions on the Strength and Nature of Intramolecular O...H Hydrogen Bond in Orthohydroxy Benzaldehyde Compound
The influence of cation-π interactions on the strength and nature of intramolecular O...H hydrogen bond has been investigated by quantum chemical calculations in orthohydroxy benzaldehyde (HBA) compound. Ab initio calculations have been performed at MP2/6-311++G** level of theory. Vibrational frequencies and physical properties such as chemical potential and chemical hardness of these compounds...

متن کاملContribution of cation-π interactions in iminium catalysis.
Ab initio calculations were carried out for a benzyl-substituted iminium cation derived from (E)-crotonaldehyde and a chiral imidazolidinone that was developed as an organocatalyst by MacMillan et al. At the MP2 level of theory it is predicted that the phenyl group is close to the iminium moiety in the most stable conformer, suggesting that the cation-π interaction contributes to the stabilizat...
متن کاملEffects of Structure and Partially Localization of the π Electron Clouds of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes on the Cation-π Interactions
A C102H30 graphene sheet has been rolled up to construct Single-Walled Carbon NanoTube Fragments (SWCNTFs) as parts of armchair carbon nanotubes by computational quantum chemistry methods. Non-covalent cation-π interactions of the Na+ cation on the central rings of SWCNTFs have investigated. The binding energies of the Na+-SWCNTF complexes versus ...
