Abstract

Ab initio calculations at the second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theoretic level have been carried out to study the solvation of protonated water by phenol molecules. The results show that in addition to classical O-H···O hydrogen bonds, C-H···O, π···H-O, and π···H-C bonds are also formed, thus stabilizing the H3O+(C6H5OH)3 complex.
