Self-Complementarity Achieved through Quadruple Hydrogen Bonding
TLDR
In this paper, a donor-acceptor-donoracceptor array of four hydrogen-bonding sites is used to pre-organize the molecule for dimerization. But the structure of the compound is unknown.Abstract:
Highly stable dimers are formed in solution and in the solid state by a class of readily synthesized, self-complementary building blocks for supramolecular chemistry, which associate through a donor-acceptor-donor-acceptor array of four hydrogen-bonding sites. An additional intramolecular hydrogen bond in the compound whose crystal structure is shown on the right preorganizes the molecule for dimerization.read more

The hydrogen bond in the solid state.
TL;DR: The hydrogen bond is the most important of all directional intermolecular interactions, operative in determining molecular conformation, molecular aggregation, and the function of a vast number of chemical systems ranging from inorganic to biological.
