“…The phenomenon of 'blue-shiing hydrogen bonding', where the stretching frequency of X-H (n X-H ) is shied to a higher value in a hydrogen bonded X-H/Y type cluster, has been extensively discussed in recent literature. In most of the studies reported to date, a very weakly acidic C-H group has been shown to display blue-shiing H-bonding either with classical acceptors, i.e., the electronegative atom Y having lone pair(s) of electrons [5][6][7][8][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]22,23,[25][26][27][29][30][31][32] or non-classical acceptors with p-electron systems, e.g., aromatic group. 6,14,25 The proposed mechanisms, with many different approaches, were aimed at shortening of X-H bond, and the blue shi of n X-H was considered a direct consequence of X-H bond shortening.…”
