Terahertz Laser Vibration−Rotation Tunneling Spectroscopy and Dipole Moment of a Cage Form of the Water Hexamer
TL;DR: In this article, a terahertz laser vibration-rotation-tunneling spectroscopy has been employed to characterize the structure and hydrogen bond network rearrangement dynamics of a cage form of the water hexamer having eight hydrogen bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared spectroscopy of cationized arginine in the gas phase: direct evidence for the transition from nonzwitterionic to zwitterionic structure.
TL;DR: New detailed structural assignments and interpretations of previously observed fragmentation patterns for these ions are provided, including for clusters with protonated side chains, structures with two strong hydrogen bonds are lowest in energy, in disagreement with these experimental results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced Concentration of Polarizable Anions at the Liquid Water Surface: SHG Spectroscopy and MD Simulations of Sodium Thiocyanide
TL;DR: In this paper, a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the liquid/air interface of aqueous sodium thiocyanide at varying salt concentrations is presented, which is in accord with molecular dynamics simulations in slab geometry, which predict an appreciable surface enhancement of SCN-.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organic chemistry of C60 (Buckminsterfullerene): chromatography and osmylation.
Joel M. Hawkins,Timothy A. Lewis,Stefan Loren,Axel Meyer,James R. Heath,Y. Shibato,Richard J. Saykally +6 more
TL;DR: Treatment of C60 with osmium tetroxide and pyridine gives the osmate ester (2:1 adduct) establishing that oxygen functionality can be added to C60 without disrupting the carbon framework.
Journal ArticleDOI
Confirmation of enhanced anion concentration at the liquid water surface
TL;DR: In this paper, a femtosecond second harmonic generation (SHG) experiments exploiting the charge-transfer-to-solvent (CTTS) resonance of N 3 -, yielding a surface excess free energy of −9.9 ± 0.3 kJ/mole.
