Summary

The structure, energetics, and vibrational frequencies of the pyrazole-water complex is investigated within the framework of the ab initio self-consistent field method. Full optimization at DZP and TZP quality of the complex and its constituents has been carried out. The results indicate that a cyclic structure is the most stable with SCF/MP2 binding energies of −5.7/−7.0 kcal/mol. Using appropriate scaling factors, we can predict a complete set of vibrational spectra of isolated subunits as well as of the hydrogen-bonded complex and compare them with experimental data where available.

Zusammenfassung

Es wurden die Struktur, die energetischen Zustände und die Vibrationsfrequenzen des Pyrazol-Wasser-Komplexes mittels einer ab initio self consistent field Methode untersucht. Es wurde die volle Optimierung des Komplexes und seiner Komponenten in DZP- und TZP-Qualität durchgeführt. Dabei war eine cyclische Struktur mit SCF/MP2-Bindungsenergien von −5.7/−7.0 kcal/mol am stabilsten. Unter Verwendung geeigneter Skalierungsfaktoren kann man einen vollständigen Satz der Vibrationsspektren der isolierten Untereinheiten und des Wasserstoffbrücken-gebundenen Komplexes voraussagen und — falls vorhanden — mit den experimentellen Daten vergleichen.
