Talk on hydrogen bonding
Tomorrow I am giving a talk A unified picture of hydrogen bonding and proton transfer via a two state Hamiltonian. It is based on this paper. The main point is A simple model Hamiltonian • with just two parameters • i s physically and chemically transparent g ives • a unified picture of different types of H-bonds and of proton transfer • insight into the H-bond puzzle • a semi-quantitative description of empirical correlations between bond lengths, binding energies, vibrational frequencies….
