title: Is there any bona fide example of O-H...F-C bond in solution? The cases of HOC(CF3)2(4-X-2,6-C6H2(CF3)2) (X = Si(i-Pr)3, CF3).
abstract: The reinvestigation of the title compounds, which are the only examples reported to show experimentally (by NMR) O-H...F-C bonds in solution proves that the NMR data were misinterpreted and the restrictions to rotation of one CF(3) group are due to crowding, not to intramolecular O-H...F-C bond.
