Figure 4.14: Inter- <strong>and</strong> intramolecular hydrogen interactions found between the<br />

[NbCl(phacac-κ 2 -O,O’)(OMe)3] <strong>and</strong> [NbCl2(phacac-κ 2 -O,O’)(OMe)2] molecules. Only<br />

applicable hydrogen atoms with relevance to hydrogen bond interactions are indicated.<br />

Inter- <strong>and</strong> intramolecular hydrogen bonding are illustrated in Figure 4.14.<br />

Intramolecular bonding exists between O1 <strong>and</strong> H12 (B) with a donor-acceptor (D-A)<br />

bond distance <strong>of</strong> 2.742 (6) Å, while intermolecular bonding occurs between Cl2 <strong>and</strong><br />

H6A (A) with a D-A distance <strong>of</strong> 3.611 (8) Å. An intermolecular interaction also exists<br />

between Cl1 <strong>and</strong> H2 (C) with a D-A distance <strong>of</strong> 3.655 (5) Å. A complete list <strong>of</strong><br />

hydrogen bonds is given in Table 4.9.<br />
