A systematic PCILO study has been carried out on the intermolecular hydrogen bond formed by phenol with proton acceptors such as acetone, ether, p-benzoquinone, N,N-dimethylfonnamide, trimethylamine, pyridine, acetonitrile and acrylonitrile. The complexes studied form hydrogen bonds with energy inte

β¦ Synopsis
The semiempirical PCILO method has been used to study stereochemistry of the intramolecular hydrogen bond O-H...0 in 2-methoxyphenol (guaiacol) and 2-methoxy-6-fonmyl phenol (o-vanillin). According to my calculations, the hydrogen bond in guaiacol is weak and has energy of 2.7 kJ/mole and forms a planar five membered ring. The hydrogen bond fonmed by carbonyl oxygen of the formyl gTOUp in o-vanillin is more stable and fonms a nonplanar six membered ring with an angle of rotation of the -CHO group out-of-the-plane of the benzene ring equal to 15O. The energy of this hydrogen bond is 6.07 kJ/mole.
