Dihydrogen bond: principles, experiments, and applications

The first book to describe the phenomenon of dihydrogen bonding in the solid-state, the gas phase, and in solution while considering numerous theoretical and experimental methodologies for its determination and characterization. The book considers the nature of dihydrogen bonds in the context of theoretical and experimental data surrounding their formation, classifying these bonds as a function of energy, geometry, strength of proton-donor and proton-acceptor sites, and establishing correlations between energetic and geometrical parameters.
