The weak or non-conventional hydrogen bond has been the subject of intense scrutiny over recent years. Although the existence of this type of hydrogen bond was suggested many years ago, research has traditionally focused on the stronger and more well-known forms of hydrogen bonds. However, a growing

Hydrogen bonds are weak attractions, with a binding strength less than one-tenth that of a normal covalent bond. However, hydrogen bonds are of extraordinary importance; without them all wooden structures would collapse, cement would crumble, oceans would vaporize, and all living things would disint

When writing a book on as vast a subject as Hydrogen Bonding, a major problem is to circumscribe the subject matter. In this respect, we have adopted the crystallographer's point of view. We have focused our attention on the structure of the hydrogen-bonding patterns, as revealed by crystal structur
