Abstract
An overview is given on C-H-O hydrogen bonding in the solid state Following a short survey of the early literature, the general properties of C-H-O bonding are discussed The structural characteristics and some physical consequences of C-H-O bonds are described A number of special systems are discussed in greater detail; these include water acceptors, inclusion complexes, and some biological structures

CH/π hydrogen bonds in organic and organometallic chemistry

TL;DR: Nishio et al. as discussed by the authors survey recent results relevant to the CH/π hydrogen bond: crystal conformation, packing and host/guest chemistry, and summarize the results obtained by crystallographic database (CSD and PDB) analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular recognition in organic crystals : Directed intermolecular bonds or nonlocalized bonding?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare interpretations based on the extension of Bader's atoms in molecules (AIM) theory to cover closed-shell intermolecular interactions with interpretation based on a new pixel method for the calculation of coulombic, polarization, dispersion, and repulsion energies from the electron density of molecular clusters.

Hydrogen‐Bonding Thiourea Organocatalysts: The Privileged 3,5‐Bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl Group

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present evidence that the privileged use of the 3,5-bis trifluoromethyl group in thiourea organocatalysis is due to the involvement of the ortho-CH bond in the binding event with Lewis-basic sites.

Effectiveness of nonpeptide clinical inhibitor TMC-114 on HIV-1 protease with highly drug resistant mutations D30N, I50V, and L90M.

TL;DR: The potent new antiviral inhibitor TMC-114 of HIV-1 protease (PR) has been studied with three PR variants containing single mutations D30N, I50V, and L90M, which provide resistance to the major clinical inhibitors.

Oxyanion hole stabilization by C-H···O interaction in a transition state--a three-point interaction model for Cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed asymmetric methanolysis of meso-cyclic anhydrides.

TL;DR: Through DFT calculations, it is shown that asymmetric methanolysis of meso-cyclic anhydrides (AMMA) catalyzed by a class of cinchona alkaloid catalysts involves an oxyanion hole consisting of purely C-H functionality, and is the key reason for the catalyst to adopt the gauche-open conformation in the transition state.

Supramolecular Synthons in Crystal Engineering—A New Organic Synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that crystal engineering is a new organic synthesis, and that rather than being only nominally relevant to organic chemistry, this subject is well within the mainstream, being surprisingly similar to traditional organic synthesis in concept.

Graph-set analysis of hydrogen-bond patterns in organic crystals

TL;DR: A method is presented based on graph theory for categorizing hydrogen-bond motifs in such a way that complex hydrogen- bond patterns can be disentangled, or decoded, systematically and consistently.
