If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr Dwaipayan Chakrabarti. BSN Seminar hosted by Prof. James Tucker The study of non-covalent interactions is often complicated by their fundamentally weak nature and the role of solvent effects. This talk will illustrate how synthetic molecular torsion balances [1-3,5-8] and supramolecular complexes [4] can be used to quantify difficult-to-study interactions including van der Waals dispersion forces [2-3], aromatic stacking [4], hydrogen-bonding cooperativity [5], orbital delocalization in chalcogen-bonding interactions [6], solvent [7-8], and solvophobic effects [9]. I will show how the information gleaned from such studies can be used to develop our theoretical understanding of molecular recognition phenomenon. References: [1] I. K. Mati, S. L. Cockroft, Chem.
