As shown in the figure above, benzene has the highest electron density in the center, and the phenyl and biphenyl
groups of the L11 stationary phase have a dipole-dipole interaction, which is the orientation force of the van der
Waals force. It then exhibits characteristic selectivity by the π-π and CH-π interactions that are treated as part of
them.
★π-π stacking and T-type stacking are known as benzene arrangement states as π-π interactions. It is presumed that
T-type stacking is close to the CH-π interaction, which is the interaction between the central part of benzene and
hydrogen of CH.
