Abstract

Ab initio studies of hydrogen bonding in the carboxylic acid-fluoride systems apply to the free state. In condensed phases strong interactions lead to more complex structures. IR spectra of saturated solutions and solid solvates indicate at least two different types of hydrogen bond. The high solvation energy of the fluoride anion enables different ionic and molecular species to coexist.
