An ab initio study of water clusters in gas phase and bulk aqueous media: (H2O)n,n=1–12

Geometries of several clusters of water molecules including single minimum energy structures of n‐mers (n=1–5), several hexamers and two structures of each of heptamer to decamer derived from hexamer cage and hexamer prism were optimized. One structural form of each of 11‐mer and 12‐mer were also studied. The geometry optimization calculations were performed at the RHF/6‐311G* level for all the cases and at the MP2/6‐311++G** level for some selected cases. The optimized cluster geometries were used to calculate total energies of the clusters in gas phase employing the B3LYP density functional method and the 6‐311G* basis set. Frequency analysis was carried out in all the cases to ensure that the optimized geometries corresponded to total energy minima. Zero‐point and thermal free energy corrections were applied for comparison of energies of certain hexamers. The optimized cluster geometries were used to solvate the clusters in bulk water using the polarized continuum model (PCM) of the self‐consistent reaction field (SCRF) theory, the 6‐311G* basis set, and the B3LYP density functional method. For the cases for which MP2/6‐311++G** geometry optimization was performed, solvation calculations in water were also carried out using the B3LYP density functional method, the 6‐311++G** basis set, and the PCM model of SCRF theory, besides the corresponding gas‐phase calculations. It is found that the cage form of water hexamer cluster is most stable in gas phase among the different hexamers, which is in agreement with the earlier theoretical and experimental results. Further, use of a newly defined relative population index (RPI) in terms of successive total energy differences per water molecule for different cluster sizes suggests that stabilities of trimers, hexamers, and nonamers in gas phase and those of hexamers and nonamers in bulk water would be favored while those of pentamer and decamer in both the phases would be relatively disfavored. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Ab initio investigation of water clusters (H2O)n (n = 2–34)

Various properties of typical structures of water clusters in the n = 2–34 size regime with the change of cluster size have been systematically explored. Full optimizations are carried out for the structures presented in this article at the Hartree–Fock (HF) level using the 6‐31G(d) basis set by taking into account the positions of all atoms within the cluster. The influence of the HF level on the results has been reflected by the comparison between the binding energies of (H₂O)_n (n = 2–6, 8, 11, 13, 20) calculated at the HF level and those obtained from high‐level ab initio calculations at the second‐order Møller–Plesset (MP2) perturbation theory and the coupled cluster method including singles and doubles with perturbative triples (CCSD(T)) levels. HF is inaccurate when compared with MP2 and CCSD(T), but it is more practical and allows us to study larger systems. The computed properties characterizing water clusters (H₂O)_n (n = 2–34) include optimal structures, structural parameters, binding energies, hydrogen bonds, charge distributions, dipole moments, and so on. When the cluster size increases, trends of the above various properties have been presented to provide important reference for understanding and describing the nature of the hydrogen bond. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ab initio molecular dynamics studies of ionic dissolution and precipitation of sodium chloride and silver chloride in water clusters, NaCl(H2O)n and AgCl(H2O)n, n = 6, 10, and 14

An ab initio molecular dynamics method was used to compare the ionic dissolution of soluble sodium chloride (NaCl) in water clusters with the highly insoluble silver chloride (AgCl). The investigations focused on the solvation structures, dynamics, and energetics of the contact ion pair (CIP) and of the solvent-separated ion pair (SSIP) in NaCl(H(2)O)(n) and AgCl(H(2)O)(n) with cluster sizes of n = 6, 10 and 14. We found that the minimum cluster size required to stabilize the SSIP configuration in NaCl(H(2)O)(n) is temperature-dependent. For n = 6, both configurations are present as two distinct local minima on the free-energy profile at 100 K, whereas SSIP is unstable at 300 K. Both configurations, separated by a low barrier (<10 kJ mol(-1)), are identifiable on the free energy profiles of NaCl(H(2)O)(n) for n = 10 and 14 at 300 K, with the Na(+)/Cl(-) pairs being internally solvated in the water cluster and the SSIP configuration being slightly higher in energy (<5 kJ mol(-1)). In agreement with the low bulk solubility of AgCl, no SSIP minimum is observed on the free-energy profiles of finite AgCl(H(2)O)(n) clusters. The AgCl interaction is more covalent in nature, and is less affected by the water solvent. Unlike NaCl, AgCl is mainly solvated on the surface in finite water clusters, and ionic dissolution requires a significant reorganization of the solvent structure.     

Automated exploration of stable isomers of H(+)(H(2)O)(n) (n = 5-7) via ab initio calculations: An application of the anharmonic downward distortion following algorithm

Isomers of protonated water clusters H(+)(H(2)O)(n) (n = 5-7) have been explored on ab initio potential energy surfaces by means of the anharmonic downward distortion following algorithm. Totally, 9, 24, and 131 isomers for n = 5, 6, and 7, respectively, were located by the automatic exploration, and all of known important isomers previously reported by conventional geometry optimization approaches have been included in the present results. Moreover, structure transitions depending on n and temperature, which were observed by experimental studies, could be reproduced via thermodynamic simulation on the basis of the superposition approach and the present isomer sets.     

HNNH3, a new possible isomer of N2H4: An ab initio study

Ab initio studies applying the 3-21G, 6-31G, and 6-31G** basis sets and also including the MP2 correction were carried out on H₂NNH₂, HNNH₃, and the transition state of the reaction H₂NNH₂(DOUBLE BOND)HNNH₃. First, the geometries of molecules were optimized using the theoretical methods mentioned in the restricted Hartree–Fock (RHF) scheme. The energies of the molecules corresponding to RHF/6-31G** geometries were subsequently calculated including electron-correlation effects at the level of the second-order Møller–Plesset (MP2) perturbation theory. The vibrational frequencies, net charges, and dipole moments were obtained from the theoretical calculations. The results of our calculations indicate unambiguously that H₂NNH₂ is thermodynamically more stable than is HNNH₃. On the other hand, an isolated HNNH₃ molecule once created would be stable since barriers for its unimolecular isomerization and decomposition are relatively high. But HNNH₃ is unlikely to be isolated in measurable amounts because of bimolecular tautomerization. Nevertheless, HNNH₃ can be considered as an intermediate in chemical processes involving N₂H₄. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Quant Chem 64 : 447–452, 1997

A theoretical ab initio study on the H(2)NO + O(3) reaction

The deviation of the NH(2) pseudo-first-order decay Arrhenius plots of the NH(2) + O(3) reaction at high ozone pressures measured by experimentalists, has been attributed to the regeneration of NH(2) radicals due to the subsequent reactions of the products of this reaction with ozone. Although these products have not yet been characterized experimentally, the radical H(2)NO has been postulated, because it can regenerate NH(2) radicals through the reactions: H(2)NO + O(3) --> NH(2) + O(2) and H(2)NO + O(3) --> HNO + OH + O(2). With the purpose of providing a reasonable explanation from a theoretical point of view to the kinetic observed behaviour of the NH(2) + O(3) system, we have carried ab initio electronic structure calculations on both H(2)NO + O(3) possible reactions. The results obtained in this article, however, predict that of both reactions proposed, only the H(2)NO + O(3) --> NH(2) + O(2) reaction would regenerate indeed NH(2) radicals, explaining thus the deviation of the NH(2) pseudo-first-order decay observed experimentally.     

Mechanism of the O2(1Δg) generation from the Cl2/H2O2 basic aqueous solution explored by the combined ab initio calculation and nonadiabatic dynamics simulation

In the present work, mechanism of the O₂(¹Δ_g) generation from the reaction of the dissolved Cl₂ with H₂O₂ in basic aqueous solution has been explored by the combined ab initio calculation and nonadiabatic dynamics simulation, together with different solvent models. Three possible pathways have been determined for the O₂(¹Δ_g) generation, but two of them are sequentially downhill processes until formation of the OOCl⁻ complex with water, which are of high exothermic character. Once the complex is formed, singlet molecular oxygen is easily generated by its decomposition along the singlet-state pathway. However, triplet molecular oxygen of O₂() can be produced with considerable probability through nonadiabatic intersystem crossing in the ¹Δ_g/ intersection region. It has been found that the coupled solvent, heavy-atom, and nonadiabatic effects have an important influence on the quantum yield of the O₂(¹Δ_g) generation. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
