| Description |
1 online resource (xi, 317 pages, 6 unnumbered pages of plates) : illustrations (some color) |
| Contents |
A century of the hydrogen bond (H-bond) -- Generalities, definitions, and preliminary classification -- Modelling the H-bond by crystallographic methods -- Modelling the H-bond by thermodynamic methods -- The empirical laws governing the H-bond : a summary -- Outline of a novel transition-state H-bond theory (TSHBT) -- The strength of the H-bond : definitions and thermodynamics -- The role of strong H-bonds in nature : a gallery of functional H-bonds |
| Summary |
This text defines the rules for predicting H-bond energies and geometries from the properties of the interacting molecules. This new knowledge is used to investigate the molecular mechanisms in systems relevant to chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, crystallography, and material sciences |
