Semantics?
■ Is it a matter of just semantics what the
definition of a hydrogen bond is?
■ without a (3,-1) BCP no donor-acceptor cooperativity ■ σ* occupancies and bond lengths in glucose not
cooperatively increased compared to ethane-1,2-diol
■ IR red-shifts and synchrony ■ hydrogen tunnelling
– de Broglie wavelength (uncertainty) λ = h/√ (2mE)
λH = 0.58 Å; λD = 0.41 Å; λT = 0.34 Å
■ the answer is probably “no”
