Vibrational Frequencies And Intensities Of H‐Bonded And Li‐Bonded Complexes. H3n⋅⋅Hcl And H3n⋅⋅Licl, M. M. Szczesniak, I. J. Kurnig, Steve Scheiner Jan 1988

Vibrational Frequencies And Intensities Of H‐Bonded And Li‐Bonded Complexes. H3n⋅⋅Hcl And H3n⋅⋅Licl, M. M. Szczesniak, I. J. Kurnig, Steve Scheiner

Steve Scheiner

The geometries, energetics, and vibrational spectra are calculated for the two complexes at the SCF and correlated MP2 levels using the 6‐31G∗∗ basis set, augmented by a second set of d functions on Cl. While correlation represents an important factor in the binding of H3 N⋅⋅HCl, it contributes little to the stronger Li bond. Unlike the HCl stretch νs which decreases substantially in frequency and is greatly intensified in H3 N⋅⋅HCl, the frequency of the LiCl stretch undergoes an increase and little change is noted in its intensity, conforming to prior spectral measurements. The intensities of the …

Theoretical Vibrational Study Of The Fx⋅⋅⋅O(Ch3)2 Hydrogen‐Bonded Complex, Y. Bouteiller, C. Mijoule, M. M. Szczesniak, Steve Scheiner Jan 1988

Theoretical Vibrational Study Of The Fx⋅⋅⋅O(Ch3)2 Hydrogen‐Bonded Complex, Y. Bouteiller, C. Mijoule, M. M. Szczesniak, Steve Scheiner

Chemistry and Biochemistry Faculty Publications

This paper presents the first ab initio attempt to reconstruct the observed band profile of the stretching fundamental vFX (X=H,D) in the FX⋅⋅⋅O(CH3)2 hydrogen‐bonded system. The two‐dimensional potential energy surface V(rFH,RF⋅⋅⋅O) is evaluated by means of large basis set SCF calculations. The related force constants up to the fourth order are obtained via the analytical fit to a polynomial expansion. The vibrational problem is solved by means of a variational treatment which includes the effects of mechanical anharmonicity. The side bands of the …


Vibrational Frequencies And Intensities Of H-Bonded Systems. 1:1 And 1:2 Complexes Of Nh3 And Ph3 With Hf, I. J. Kurnig, M. M. Szczesniak, Steve Scheiner Jan 1987

Vibrational Frequencies And Intensities Of H-Bonded Systems. 1:1 And 1:2 Complexes Of Nh3 And Ph3 With Hf, I. J. Kurnig, M. M. Szczesniak, Steve Scheiner

Steve Scheiner

Frequencies and intensities are calculated by ab initio methods for all vibrational modes of the 1:1 H3X–HF and 1:2 H3X–HF–HF complexes (X=N,P). The HF stretching frequencies are subject to red shifts, roughly proportional to the strength of the H bond, and to manyfold increases in intensity. Although the intramolecular frequency shifts within the proton acceptors are relatively modest, the intensities of the NH3 stretches are magnified by several orders of magnitude as a result of H bonding (in contrast to PH3 which exhibits little sensitivity in this regard). …

Studies Of Dispersion Energy In Hydrogen‐Bonded Systems. H2o–Hoh, H2o–Hf, H3n–Hf, Hf–Hf, M. M. Szczesniak, Steve Scheiner Jan 1984

Studies Of Dispersion Energy In Hydrogen‐Bonded Systems. H2o–Hoh, H2o–Hf, H3n–Hf, Hf–Hf, M. M. Szczesniak, Steve Scheiner

Chemistry and Biochemistry Faculty Publications

Dispersion energy is calculated in the systems H2O–HOH, H2O–HF, H3N–HF, and HF–HF as a function of the intermolecular separation using a variety of methods. M≂ller–Plesset perturbation theory to second and third orders is applied in conjunction with polarized basis sets of 6‐311G∗∗ type and with an extended basis set including a second set of polarization functions (DZ+2P). These results are compared to a multipole expansion of the dispersion energy, based on the Unsöld approximation, carried out to the inverse tenth power of the intermolecular distance. Pairwise evaluation is also carried out using both atom–atom …


Proton Transfers In Hydrogen‐Bonded Systems. Vi. Electronic Redistributions In (N2h7)+ And (O2h5)+, Steve Scheiner Jan 1981

Proton Transfers In Hydrogen‐Bonded Systems. Vi. Electronic Redistributions In (N2h7)+ And (O2h5)+, Steve Scheiner

Chemistry and Biochemistry Faculty Publications

Electronic rearrangements accompanying transfer of the central proton between the two XHn units of (H3NHNH3)+ and (H2OHOH2)+ are studied using ab initio molecular orbital methods. Electron density difference maps are calculated by subtracting the density of the equilibrium structure (X–H‐‐‐X) from that of the midpoint geometry (X‐‐H‐‐X) using the split‐valence 4‐31G basis set. Some of the features revealed by the maps are common to both systems while others indicate significant differences between nitrogen and oxygen. Decomposition of the total electron density into …
