Intramolecular describes a process or characteristic limited within the structure of a single, or each molecule; a property or phenomenon limited to the extent of a single, or each molecule.


Examples:

  • intramolecular hydride transfer (transfer of a hydride ion from one part to another within the same molecule);
  • intramolecular hydrogen bond (a hydrogen bond formed between two functional groups of the same molecule)

Discovering Intramolecular Interactions (1517 words)
The bond between atoms in a molecule is a type of intramolecular interaction; however, we are not going examine this; we are going to look at the interaction between non-bonded constituents, such as the iodine affecting the location of the hydrogens in iodomethane.
Intramolecular interactions are different from the intermolecular forces (IMFs) that you studied previously to help explain differences in properties of liquids (such as boiling points).
Intramolecular hydrogen bonds play an important role in maintaining the structure of biological materials, such as secondary (coiled) and tertiary (folded) structures of proteins and the double helix of DNA.
