ABSTRACTIntermolecular interaction potentials of the acrylamide dimer in 12 equilibrium configurations have been calculated using the second-order Møller-Plesset (MP2) perturbation theory. We have employed Pople’s medium size basis sets [up to 6-311++G(3df,2p)] and Dunning’s correlation consistent basis sets (up to aug-cc-pVTZ). We have also carried out density functional theory (DFT) type calculations and compared the results with those calculated with the MP2 theory.

Density functional theory and spin-component-scaled Møller–Plesset perturbation theory calculations are used to examine the microsolvation of the formic acid dimer. The lowest energy structures with n water molecules consist of a n-water cluster, not necessarily of lowest energy, with two formic acid molecules attached to its surface by hydrogen bonds. The total number of hydrogen bonds does not correlate directly with relative stability.
