Characterization of non-covalent contacts in mono- and di-halo substituted acetaldehydes: probing the substitution effects of electron donating and withdrawing groups

Abstract

The current work performs a systematic evaluation of the different types of non-covalent interactions (NCIs) in acetaldehyde dimers, including dimers of mono- halo (XCH2CHO)2, di-halo (X2CHCHO)2and tri-halo substituted (X3CCHO)2acetaldehydes via...
