Abstract: | Ab initio self-consistent-field second-order M?ller–Plesset perturbation theory computations including basis set superposition error and zero-point vibrational energy corrections have been performed on the complexation of benzene with the polar head of acetylcholine (ACh). The ACh–benzene complex is about 0.5 kcal/mol less stable than the corresponding tetramethylammonium (TMA)–benzene complex, with a structure a little distorted with respect to the latter. The electronic structure of ACh is little modified by the ligand. Overall, the replacement of one methyl group of TMA by the acetyl tail of ACh does not affect strongly the complexation to benzene, as far as the main interaction is concerned.
