The bonding energy of a water molecule to carbanions range from 11.0 kcal/mol for c-C5H5- to 13 - 15 kcal/mol for CH2CN-, CH2CHO-, and CH2COCH3- and to 16.2 kcal/mol for HCC-.Alcohols bond to c-C5H5- more strongly, by up to 20.6 kcal/mol for the strongly acidic CF3CH2OH, and the attachment energies show an inverse linear correlation with the acidities of the alcohols.The c-C5H5- ion exhibits unusual behavior in that it bonds to the hydrogen donor H2O more weakly (11.0 kcal/mol) than to CH3CN (15.5 kcal/mol).In contrast, the more localized pyrrolide ion c-C4H4N- bonds to the two solvents by comparable strength, 15.8 and 15.7 kcal/mol, respectively.These observations indicate a specific N-*OH hydrogen bonding contribution in c-C4H4N-*H2O, and/or an unusual C-*HC type hydrogen bonding contribution in c-C5H5-*CH3CN.As to structures, correlations between ΔHoD and ΔHoacid suggest that ligands may hydrogen bond to the ? system of c-C5H5-, and to the oxygen atoms in CH2CHO- and CH3COCH2-.The latter is supported by solvent shell effects in CH3COCH2-*nH2O.
