Short description This stimulating textbook presents the most important concepts describing molecules with conjugative bonds and effects. It provides a framework for understanding properties in view of structure, spectra and reactivity of many organic molecules.
From the contents CONJUGATED pi-SYSTEMS Linear Conjugated Polyenes Conjugated Oligoalkynes Conjugated Planar Monocyclic Systems Aromaticity Criteria Structures of Monocyclic (4n)pi and (4n+2)pi Annulenes Conjugated Polycyclic Planar pi Electron Systems Substituent Effects Conjugation in Two and Three Dimensions
THROUGH-SPACE INTERACTION BETWEEN pi SYSTEMS Homoconjugation Transannular Effects Homoaromatic Systems Spiroconjugation
DONOR-ACCEPTOR INTERACTIONS BETWEEN PLANAR ARENES Donor-Acceptor Complexes Structures of Benzene and Related Aromatics in the Solid State Interactions Between Molecules of Opposite Electric Quadrupole Moments Model Studies to Measure the Strength of Non-Covalent Interactions Between pi Systems in Organic Solvents Model Calculations on pi-pi Interactions Applications and Consequences of pi-pi Interactions of Arenes in Chemistry
THROUGH-BOND INTERACTION BETWEEN pi SYSTEMS AND NON-BONDING ELECTRON PAIRS OF HETEROATOMS Theoretical Models Dehydroaromatics Through-Bond Interaction Between Non-Conjugated pi Systems Rationalization of Intramolecular Reactivity by Through-Bond Coupling
HYPERCONJUGATIVE INTERACTIONS Concept of the Two-Electron/Two-Orbital Interactions Definition and Manifestation on Ground State Properties Positive Hyperconjugation (sigma-p, sigma-pi* and sigma-sigma* Interactions) Negative Hyperconjugation (n-sigma* and pi-sigma* Interactions)
