A 1 TS J F,H(O) coupling pathway, dictated by a hydrogen bond, in some 2-fluorobenzoic acids has been observed, while such an interaction does not occur in 2-fluorophenol. Thus, this work reports the conformational analysis of 2-fluorophenylboronic acid (1), in order to evaluate a possible intramolecular OH∙∙∙F hydrogen bond in comparison to an nF→pB interaction, which mimics the quantum nF→σ*OH hydrogen bond that would be expected in 2-fluorophenol. 2-Fluorophenylborane (3), which does not experience hydrogen bonding, was used to verify whether nF→pB interaction governs the conformational equilibrium in 1 due to a predominant OH∙∙∙F hydrogen bond or to other effects. A series of 2-X-phenylboranes (X = Cl, Br, NH2, PH2, OH and SH) were further computationally analyzed to search for electron donors to boron, capable of influencing the conformational equilibrium. Overall, the intramolecular OH∙∙∙F hydrogen bond in 1 is quite stabilizing and dictates the 1 h J F,H(O) coupling constant. Moreover, electron donation to the empty p orbital of boron (for noncoplanar BH2 moiety relative to the phenyl ring) is also significantly stabilizing for the NH2 and PH2 derivatives, but not enough to make the corresponding conformers appreciably populated, because of steric effects and the loss of πCC→pB resonance. Thus, the results found earlier for 2-fluorophenol about the lack of intramolecular hydrogen bonding are now corroborated.

The stability balance shows that the hydrogen bond network and modulation of pKavalues can enhance the metal binding affinity.

Unique isolation of pairs of planar rotamers, planamers, as chemical species differing only in nitroso group orientation, separable through the presence of a single intramolecular hydrogen bond, is reported.

Certain unusual features in the infrared spectra of o-nitrobenzaldehyde have been interpreted either in terms of an intramolecular hydrogen bond or in terms of steric interactions. As an extension of these studies we have investigated the ultraviolet, infrared, and n.m.r. spectra of o-nitrobenzaldehyde and of suitable reference compounds and have re-examined the available other evidence. It is concluded that the observed spectral changes can best be explained in terms of steric interactions rather than in terms of intramolecular hydrogen bonding.
