The hydrogen bond is the most important of all directional intermolecular interactions. It is
operative in determining molecular conformation, molecular aggregation, and the function of …

Organic chemists tend to consider the conformation of compounds as a consequence of
repulsive steric interactions. In other words,“the steric effect” means “repulsive” in many …

The nature and characteristics of the CH/π interaction are discussed by comparison with
other weak molecular forces such as the CH/O and OH/π interaction. The CH/π interaction is …

Die Wasserstoffbrücke ist die wichtigste der gerichteten intermolekularen
Wechselwirkungen. Sie spielt für die molekulare Konformation, Aggregation und Funktion …

This treatise is an update to a preceding highlight (CH/π hydrogen bonds in crystals)
published in this journal 5 years ago (M. Nishio, CrystEngComm, 2004, 6, 130–156). After …

The two-volume Encyclopedia of Supramolecular Chemistry offers authoritative, centralized
information on a rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field. User-friendly and high-quality …

The utilization of noncovalent interactions to construct molecular crystals is evaluated in the
context of inorganic and organometallic crystal engineering. The attention is focused on …

New 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (EMI) salts [EMI][C (CN) 3] and [EMI][Ag (CN) 2] were
prepared and characterized. The C (CN) 3 salt has a melting point at− 11° C and shows a …

The crystal structure of 1‐n‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetraphenylborate molten salt (1)
shows C H‐π interactions between the hydrogens of the imidazolium cation and the …

Active metal template Glaser coupling has been used to synthesize a series of rotaxanes
consisting of a polyyne, with up to 24 contiguous sp-hybridized carbon atoms, threaded …
