HYDROGEN BRIDGE [3 records]

Record 1 2022-09-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Energy Transformation
DEF

A medium for the transfer of energy from one place to another.

CONT

Electricity, refined liquid fuel, liquefied natural gas, coal slurry and piped hot water are just a few of the many energy vectors in use.

CONT

Hydrogen can act as an energy carrier to enable increased penetration of renewables by providing time shifting and energy storage capabilities. Hydrogen adds optionality in a future net-zero mix, complementing other energy vectors such as direct electrification and biofuels, and serving as a bridge between energy grids in an integrated energy system.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Transformation de l'énergie
DEF

[...] véhicule ou une méthode permettant de transporter de l'énergie d'un endroit à un autre [...]

CONT

L'électricité est un vecteur énergétique largement utilisé par les pays industrialisés pour acheminer efficacement l'énergie sous une forme facilement utilisable.

Record 2 2007-07-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Chemical Elements and Compounds
CONT

Using n. m. r. methods developed in earlier papers, the conformations of two series, one doubly ortho-substituted and one triply ortho-substituted, of six identically substituted bridged diphenyls were compared. The ethers, sulfides, and methanes have been shown to adopt the same conformation in which the di-ortho-substituted ring is perpendicular to the central bridge plane while the other ring lies in that plane and an ortho hydrogen takes up the "inside" or "proximal" position.

OBS

ortho-: Must be italicized.

Key term(s)
  • ortho substituted

French

Domaine(s)
  • Éléments et composés chimiques
CONT

En utilisant les méthodes r.m.n. décrites dans les articles précédents on a comparé les conformations de deux séries de six diphényles pontés portant des substituants identiques, l'une doublement substituée en ortho, l'autre triplement substituée en ortho. On a montré que les éthers, les sulfures et les méthanes adoptent une même conformation où le cycle di-ortho substitué est perpendiculaire au plan du pont central, plan qui contient l'autre cycle, un hydrogène ortho occupant la position «intérieure» ou «la plus rapprochée».

OBS

ortho- : Doit s'écrire en italique.

Record 3 2003-10-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Chemistry
CONT

In many cases it is assumed that the mobile hydrogen atom is attached neither to the carbon nor to the oxygen atom but remains as a bridge between them and loosely bound to them in a special manner(hydrogen bridge).

CONT

Hydrogen bridges are possible at rather longer range than Van Der Vaals forces.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Chimie
DEF

Type de liaison intermoléculaire très faible s'effectuant entre un atome d'hydrogène d'une molécule et un hétéroatome d'une autre molécule pour former les associations moléculaires.

CONT

[...] en établissant entre elles des liaisons plus stables que celles dues aux forces de Van der Waals : ces liaisons sont désignées sous le nom de liaisons hydrogènes.
