Abstract
Accurately quantifying the strength, distance, and angular dependence of noncovalent interactions is central to understanding numerous aspects of biology and medicine, as well as supramolecular and synthetic chemistry.[1] However, specific weak interactions are often difficult to quantify. Known approaches[1, 2] include computational modeling, informatics, and a variety of experimental techniques. Of the latter, most notable are systems in which internal motions are restricted to two conformations, interchangeable through bond rotation.[2] For example, the “molecular torsion balance”, developed by Wilcox et al., has successfully quantified a range of weak interactions by determining the equilibrium population of these two conformers.[2b–d,g,h] Here, we demonstrate how molecular motion in the form of pyramidal inversion in aziridines may be used for detecting and assessing the strength of an individual H-bond.
