Abstract

Structurization of water in the cavity of cucurbit[6]uryl was studied using the highly effective PRIRODA quantum-chemical program package, the PBE functional, and the TZ atomic basis. The structural and energy characteristics of the formation of small water clusters in the cavitand void were calculated. The maximum possible number of molecules in the void was found to be six.
