Abstract

The effect of N-substitution on the hydrogen bonds of metal ion/water/amide complexes is studied on Li+/N-methylformamide-water as an example. Using the energies and Mulliken atomic populations derived from ab initio calculations with minimal GLO basis set, the Li+/Nmethyl formamide-water and Li+/formamide-water complexes are compared. The transference of the effect of metal ions along the molecular structure seems to have a profound relationship to the bond polarizabilities of the backbone atoms. This can be discussed qualitatively in terms of changes in the Mulliken atomic publications.
