Intermolecular forces: a solution to dispersion interactions

Intermolecular forces: a solution to dispersion interactions

London dispersion forces have been cited as an important factor in protein folding, drug–receptor interactions, and catalyst selectivities. However, careful analysis of a model system finds that the dispersion interactions are only minor contributors to the formation of complexes in solution.
