摘要: The effect of fluorine substitution on the hydrogen bond strength in alcohol–amine molecular complexes was investigated, with a combination vapour phase infrared spectroscopy and theoretical calculations. were combined from methanol (MeOH), ethanol (EtOH) trifluoroethanol (TFE) as donor, either dimethylamine (DMA) or trimethylamine (TMA) acceptor. fundamental OH-stretching vibration involved bonding measured for all complexes, well weak second NH-stretching overtone DMA complexes. Equilibrium constants complex formation determined by combining calculated intensity integrated absorbance. observation two transitions alcohol–DMA provides an opportunity independent determinations equilibrium constants. Molecular interactions between monomers elucidated Natural Bond Orbital, Atoms Molecules Non-covalent Interactions analysis. We find that TFE donor form stronger bonds secondary increase MeOH to EtOH TFE. is acid than making OH weaker, frequency redshifted relative EtOH. This redshift small but significantly enhanced upon complexation.
