MP2 calculations with cc-pVTZ basis set were used to analyze intermolecular interactions in F3CX···YLi···NCCN and F3CX···NCCN···LiY triads (X = Cl, Br; Y = CN, NC) which are connected via halogen and lithium bonds. Those complexes with the role of LiY as halogen acceptor and lithium donor show cooperativity with energy values ranging between -1.97 and -2.92 kJ mol...

Intermolecular interactions involving pi-pi interaction and hydrogen bonding are used to create one-dimensional molecular nanostructures of hexasubstituted aromatics. Site-selective steady state fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy measurements detail the intermolecular interactions that drive the aromatic molecules to self-assemble...

The different macroscopic properties of closely related isoflavones were associated with the occurrence intermolecular interactions and torsion angles in solid-state.

We show that dressing polar molecules with a far-off-resonant optical field leads to new types of intermolecular potentials, which undergo a crossover from the inverse-power to oscillating behavior depending on the intermolecular distance, and whose parameters can be tuned by varying the laser intensity and wavelength. We present analytic expressions for the potential energy surfaces, thereby p...

Spectroscopic methods in concert with molecular-beam techniques can be used to study t h e effects of intermolecular interactions on reactive potential-energy surfaces. For these studies, w e employ photoreactive molecules 'embedded' in small clusters. Spectroscopic and photochemical studies of isolated and clustered methyl iodide are described. The following effects are presented and discussed...
