Unusually Large Effects of Charge-assisted C-H⋅⋅⋅F Hydrogen Bonds to Anionic Fluorine in Organic Solvents: Computational Study of 19 F NMR Shifts versus Thermochemistry.


ABSTRACT: A comparison of computed 19 F NMR chemical shifts and experiment provides evidence for large specific solvent effects for fluoride-type anions interacting with the σ*(C-H) orbitals in organic solvents like MeCN or CH2 Cl2 . We show this for systems ranging from the fluoride ion and the bifluoride ion [FHF]- to polyhalogen anions [ClFx ]- . Discrepancies between computed and experimental shifts when using continuum solvent models like COSMO or force-field-based descriptions like the 3D-RISM-SCF model show specific orbital interactions that require a quantum-mechanical treatment of the solvent molecules. This is confirmed by orbital analyses of the shielding constants, while less negatively charged fluorine atoms (e. g., in [E
