In this paper, the weak interaction between aromatic rings (ARs) and rare gas (Rg) atoms has been studied using ab initio calculation and density functional theory (DFT). The augmented Dunning basis sets were used, and the convergence test was performed up to aug-cc-pV5Z. Among the computationally feasible methods, ωB97XD performed the best for these non-covalent systems. NBO analysis was performed to investigate the nature of the Rg/AR interactions. In this type of weak interaction, the induced and instantaneous dipole and charge transfer character both contribute to the interaction energies and equilibrium distances.

Dodecahedral water clusters including rare-gas atoms and molecules are considered to play an important role in the beginning of the formation of gas hydrates in solutions. To investigate their stability, ab initio molecular-orbital calculations were performed at the MP2/6-311G(d,p)//HF/6-311G(d,p) level. In He, Ne, Ar, and Kr, the cohesive energies of the 12-hedral water clusters including each rare-gas atom were negative, whereas in Xe they were positive. Neon in the dodecahedral cluster was almost as stable as Ar and Kr in the dodecahedral clusters; the latter two are known as clathrate-forming gases. This suggests the probability of the existence of Ne clathrate hydrate, which is generally considered to be impossible. The chemical shifts of Xe incorporated in polyhedral water clusters were computed for the first time. The computed values qualitatively agree with the experimental results.
