title: Intramolecular cation-pi interactions control the conformation of nonrestricted (phenylalkyl)pyridines.
abstract: NOEsy and fluorescence spectroscopy reveal that conversion of conformationally flexible (phenylalkyl)pyridines into their corresponding N-methyl-pyridinium iodides results in intramolecular pi-stacking.
