Abstract: | Predissociation spectra of the H5O2+.Ar(1,2) cluster ions are reported in the 1000-1900 cm(-1) region. The weakly bound argon atoms enable investigation of the complex in a linear action mode, and the resulting spectra are much simpler than those reported previously in this region Asmis et al., Science 299, 1375 (2003) and Fridgen et al., J. Phys. Chem. A 108, 9008 (2004)], which were obtained using infrared multiphoton dissociation of the bare complex. The observed spectrum consists of two relatively narrow bands at 1080 and 1770 cm(-1) that are likely due to excitation of the shared proton and intramolecular bending vibrations of the two water molecules, respectively. The narrow linewidths and relatively small (60 cm(-1)) perturbation introduced by the addition of a second argon atom indicate that the basic "zundel" character of the H5O2+ ion survives upon complexation. |
