Abstract
EARLIER infra-red detection of hydrogen bonding in gas-phase mixtures of strong acids and weakly basic materials1 has now been extended to cover mixtures of weakly acidic and more strongly basic compounds. In each case it has been found possible to choose substances which hydrogen bond, and at the same time to avoid condensation, or precipitation of a salt. We now report the infra-red detection of hydrogen bonding in gaseous mixtures of methanol and various amines, ethylenimine and ammonia.
