摘要: Semiempirical, ab initio, and density functional theory calculations are used to locate many low-energy minima on the potential energy surfaces of CH2OHCOOH–(H2O)n complexes with n=3,4,5,6. In clusters three, four, five water molecules, lowest-energy structure consists a (H2O)n complex, not necessarily lowest energy, hydrogen bonded carboxylic group glycolic acid. The for n=6 is similar except that hexamer both α-hydroxyl groups all clusters, intramolecular bond remains intact in
