Femtosecond dynamics in hydrogen-bonding solvents: formamides

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The series formamide (FA), N-methyl-formamide (NMF), and N,N-dimethyl-formamide (DMF) have been studied by using the optical-heterodyne-detected optical Kerr effect (OHD-OKE). The formamides are of great interest because of their high polarities, large dielectric constants, and strong intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions. The amides are frequently used in synthetic chemistry as solvents, and they are valued as model compounds for studying hydrogen-bonding interactions between proteins and water.
