Chapter 18, Problem 18.18(choose chapter or problem)
Phenylalanine (Phe, 15) is a naturally occurring amino acid. What is the energy of interaction between its phenyl group and the electric dipole moment of a neighbouring peptide group? Take the distance between the groups as 4.0 nm and treat the phenyl group as a benzene molecule. The dipole moment of the peptide group is = 2.7 D and the polarizability volume of benzene is = 1.04 1029 m3.
