Abstract:
:A MODEL OF THE LINEAR HYDROGEN BOND HAS BEEN DEVISED WHICH IS CHARACTERIZED BY THREE PHYSICAL PARAMETERS OF THE ISOLATED ELECTRON DONOR AND PROTON DONOR MOLECULES: mu(A-H), the bond dipole moment; DeltaI, the difference in ionization potential between that of the electron donor and the corresponding noble gas atom; and l, the length of the electron donor lone-pair of electrons. The model is able to explain dimerization energy, charge transfer, internuclear separation, directionality, stretching force constants, dimer dipole moment, and infrared intensity enhancement.
