Tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl halides and phenoxides in solution in acetonitrile showed a specific deshielding of H-1, H-3, and H-5 on addition of tetraethylammonium halides. The shifts and equilibrium constants increased as the anion radius decreased. The ortho hydrogens of the phenoxide aglucons were also significantly deshielded. The strong dependence of the equilibrium constants of the phenoxide compounds on p-substituents indicated considerable involvement of the phenyl groups in a specific conformation. A simple electrostatic model was successful in correlating the energies and predicting the structures of the complexes. It was not necessary to postulate specific hydrogen bonding to account for association of the anion with an electrophilic region of the molecule. The calculations required specific orientations of acetoxy groups with respect to the pyranose ring which are consistent with those of related studies. In favorable circumstances, the method may be used as a probe for electrophilic regions in molecules.

Carboxylic acids form exceptionally stable dimers and have been used to model proton and double proton transfer processes. The stabilization energies of the carboxylic acid dimers are very weakly dependent on the nature of the substitution. However, the electric field experienced by the OH group of a particular carboxylic acid is dependent more on the nature of the substitution on the dimer partner. In general, the electric field was higher when the partner was substituted with electron-donating group and lower with electron-withdrawing substituent on the partner. The Stark tuning rate (∆μ) of the O–H stretching vibrations calculated at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ level was found to be weakly dependent on the nature of substitution on the carboxylic acid. The average Stark tuning rate of O–H stretching vibrations of a particular carboxylic acid when paired with other acids was 5.7 cm–1 (MV cm–1)–1, while the corresponding average Stark tuning rate of the partner acids due to a particular carboxylic acid was 21.9 cm–1 (MV cm–1)–1. The difference in the Stark tuning rate is attributed to the primary and secondary effects of substitution on the carboxylic acid. The average Stark tuning rate for the anharmonic O–D frequency shifts is about 40-50% higher than the corresponding harmonic O–D frequency shifts calculated at B3LYP/aug-cc-pVDZ level, much greater than the typical scaling factors used, indicating the strong anharmonicity of O–H/O–D oscillators in carboxylic acid dimers. Finally, the linear correlation observed between pKa and the electric field was used to estimate the pKa of fluoroformic acid to be around 0.9.

The infra-red spectrum of diazoaminobenzene reveals that dimeric association occurs through hydrogen bonding. In tetrachloroethylene solution, the equilibrium constant for dimer formation is found to be 1.2�0.2 1 mol-1. The effects of various solvents on the free N-H stretching frequency have been examined, and the frequency shifts are linearly related to those reported by Bellamy and Hallam (1959) for pyrrole. A linear relation of this type is also found for %nitroaniline, and confirms that there is no significant intramolecular hydrogen bonding in this compound.

The aluminum (2p) electron spectra of several anhydrous and “hydrous” aluminum oxides have been recorded, and the binding energies have been measured. A simple electrostatic model is employed to explain the observed shift in binding energy and relate it to differences in structure and hydrogen bonding. Two conclusions can be drawn: structural differences must be considered when interpreting photoelectron spectra for inorganic crystalline substances; and hydrogen bonding with anions may have a measurable effect on the binding energy of core electrons of the cations.
