Abstract

Noncovalent interactions play a dominant role in many forefront areas of modern chemistry, from materials design to molecular biology. A detailed understanding of the physical origin and scope of such interactions has become a major goal of physical organic chemistry. Compared to the more conventional interactions such as hydrogen bonds, ion pairs (salt bridges), and the hydrophobic interaction, the cation-π interaction has been relatively underappreciated. It is not a new effect-experimental support for a prominent interaction in the gas phase appeared more than 15 years ago, and the potential for such an interaction has always been evident from an electrostatic analysis of benzene.
