Certain unusual features in the infrared spectra of o-nitrobenzaldehyde have been interpreted either in terms of an intramolecular hydrogen bond or in terms of steric interactions. As an extension of these studies we have investigated the ultraviolet, infrared, and n.m.r. spectra of o-nitrobenzaldehyde and of suitable reference compounds and have re-examined the available other evidence. It is concluded that the observed spectral changes can best be explained in terms of steric interactions rather than in terms of intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

The ultraviolet spectra of a number of 2,4-dinitrodiphenylamines suggest that these compounds are generally non-planar in a number of different solvents. The infrared and ultraviolet spectral data in different solvents also suggest that an intramolecular hydrogen bond is present in these molecules, at least in inert solvents. There is evidence that a p-nitro substituent is necessary to increase the positive charge on the amino group sufficiently to permit it to form this fairly strong type of hydrogen bond.

Intramolecular Hydrogen

Intramolecular hydrogen bonding occurring in o-nitrophenol is discussed with special reference to the effects of the steric interactions on the absorption bands and on the bonding. An alkyl substituent vicinal to the OH group, or a methyl group vicinal to the NO2 group appears to strengthen the intramolecular hydrogen bond in o-nitrophenol. The O—H vibrational stretching frequency in o-nitrophenol appears to be more susceptible to steric than to mesomeric interactions, and a methyl substituent vicinal to the nitro group in o-nitrophenols is found to give rise to a characteristic O—H stretching vibration band. For 6-t-butyl-2-nitrophenol, a special, "protected" hydrogen bond is postulated. In some of the o-nitrophenols, intermolecular hydrogen bonding gives rise to appreciable ultraviolet intensity decreases presumably because of increased steric interactions.

Intramolecular Hydrogen

Information concerning intramolecular hydrogen bonding in phenols and anilines can be obtained from ultraviolet spectra by a variety of methods. One method is to note the spectral changes observed between the corresponding o-substituted phenols and anisoles. A second method is to compare the spectral changes between o-substituted phenols or anilines and the corresponding meta isomers. A third method is to note the absence of an appreciable spectral change, on altering the solvent conditions, which may also indicate the formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond. The conclusions deduced from the three methods confirm previously stated generalizations concerning the nature of the hydrogen bond. One notable exception is that the spectral changes ascribed to the intramolecular hydrogen bond in o-nitrophenol can be explained in terms of an electrostatic model of the hydrogen bond.

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.
