Abstract:A series of amides with variation in the number of methyl and amine groups were used as additives of water. Perturbations of water structure by variation of temperature and concentration of urea, formamide, N‐methylformamide, and N,N‐dimethylformamide was systematically analyzed by vibrational spectroscopy. The water absorption band was critically analyzed by 2D‐correlation spectroscopy, its deconvolution and derivative spectra. Degree of perturbation of the water structure was evaluated to provide strong evid… Show more
“…10 It is interesting to note that temperature and various additives can change the water structure and, consequently, the fundamental properties of water. [11][12][13][14][15][16] The bonds in the dynamic network are formed or broken in picoseconds due to the hydrogen bonding that occurs between water molecules. Hence, it is challenging to probe the structure of water.…”
Water structure making and breaking effects of d-(+)-glucose have been studied by applying perturbations of concentration and temperature along with mutarotation between α- and β-forms.
