Dimerization of Acetic Acid in the Gas Phase—NMR Experiments and Quantum-Chemical Calculations
Due to the nature of the carboxylic group, acetic acid can serve as both a donor and acceptor of a hydrogen bond. Gaseous acetic acid is known to form cyclic dimers with two strong hydrogen bonds. However, trimeric and various oligomeric structures have also been hypothesized to exist in both the ga...
