Calculation of the spectra of intermolecular complexes of 3-aminophthalimide is used as an example to show that when hydrogen bonds are present, the resonance integrals for the proton donor and acceptor atoms are different from zero. Theoretical analysis of strained 3-aminophthalimide complexes allowed us to establish the determining role of hydrogen bonds in their formation. Using an intramolecular peptide hydrogen bond as an example, we studied the effect of the solvent on its parameters. In particular, we showed that hydrogen bond formation with a proton-acceptor group of the chelate ring leads to a decrease in the resonance integral, and consequently a decrease in the enthalpy of formation of the intramolecular hydrogen bond, to a significantly greater degree than formation of a hydrogen bond at a proton-donor group.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
