A 1 TS J F,H(O) coupling pathway, dictated by a hydrogen bond, in some 2-fluorobenzoic acids has been observed, while such an interaction does not occur in 2-fluorophenol. Thus, this work reports the conformational analysis of 2-fluorophenylboronic acid (1), in order to evaluate a possible intramolecular OH∙∙∙F hydrogen bond in comparison to an nF→pB interaction, which mimics the quantum nF→σ*OH hydrogen bond that would be expected in 2-fluorophenol. 2-Fluorophenylborane (3), which does not experience hydrogen bonding, was used to verify whether nF→pB interaction governs the conformational equilibrium in 1 due to a predominant OH∙∙∙F hydrogen bond or to other effects. A series of 2-X-phenylboranes (X = Cl, Br, NH2, PH2, OH and SH) were further computationally analyzed to search for electron donors to boron, capable of influencing the conformational equilibrium. Overall, the intramolecular OH∙∙∙F hydrogen bond in 1 is quite stabilizing and dictates the 1 h J F,H(O) coupling constant. Moreover, electron donation to the empty p orbital of boron (for noncoplanar BH2 moiety relative to the phenyl ring) is also significantly stabilizing for the NH2 and PH2 derivatives, but not enough to make the corresponding conformers appreciably populated, because of steric effects and the loss of πCC→pB resonance. Thus, the results found earlier for 2-fluorophenol about the lack of intramolecular hydrogen bonding are now corroborated.

The H– on the adjacent carbon of the carboranylcarboxylate ligand is responsible for intramolecular interactions that stabilize the nuclearity of Cu(ii) complexes.


Infrared spectra are reported of methanol, ethanol, propan-2-ol, 2-methylpropan-2-ol, 2, 2, 2-trifluoroethanol, 2, 2, 3, 3-tetrafluoropropan-1-ol and 1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3-hexafluoropropan-2-ol in the vapour phase in a 1 m path-length cell at pressures up to the s. v. p. of the alcohol. Also reported are 40 m path-length vapour and argon matrix spectra of trifluoroethanol. Dimer absorptions are identified for all the alkanols and for trifluoroethanol, and some estimates of ∆ H provided. Trifluoroethanol exhibits a striking series of sum-and-difference bands of the OH stretch with other fundamentals, 14 summation modes being observed extending in frequency to over 5000 cm -1 and involving most of the fundamentals below 1500 cm -1 . Other fluoroalcohols with fluorines substituted on β carbon atoms exhibit similar sum-and-difference modes. The alkanols exhibit only one such pair of bands due to the OH stretch plus or minus the OH torsion, and this provides a convenient method of measuring the torsional frequencies. The different behaviour of the fluoroalcohols is attributed to intramolecular hydrogen bonding.
