Abstract

The proton resonance spectra of a series of 2,7‐disubstituted‐4,5‐bis(2‐pyridyl)phenanthrene‐3,6‐diols are examined with emphasis on the shielding effects produced by aromatic ‘ring currents.’ In this series, two pyridine rings are rigidly held less than 3.4 Å apart and with considerable overlap. The ‘ringcurrent’ shieldings found for above‐the‐plane positions are in good agreement with the Johnson‐Bovey theory, whereas a recently proposed quantum‐mechanical theory underestimates the shieldings by a factor of nearly three.

## Abstract We report a systematic comparison of the dispersion and repulsion contributions to the free energy of solvation determined using quantum mechanical self‐consistent reaction field (QM‐SCRF) and classical methods. In particular, QM‐SCRF computations have been performed using the dispersio
