✦ Synopsis


The properties of a number of electron donor-acceptor and hydrogen-bonded complexes formed between sulphur dioxide and the series of molecules ammonia, water, hydrogen fluoride, phosphine, hydrogen sulphide and hydrogen chloride have been determined by means of ab initio molecular orbital calculations. The properties of interest are the interaction energies, the molecular structures and, particularly, the vibrational spectra. The natures of the complexes formed, the trends in the interaction energies, the perturbations of the monomer structures and the wavenumber shifts and infrared intensity ratios have been rationalized in terms of the properties of the partner molecules in the complexes. The properties of the complexes have also been compared with those of a parallel series of aggregates in which the Lewis acid molecule is boron trifluoride, and the effect of substituting boron trifluoride by sulphur dioxide has been discussed.

The properties of supercritical fluid carbon dioxide were predicted satisfactorily by molecular dynamics simulations using a model potential from ab initio calculations. The model potential was obtained from the interaction energies of dimers calculated at the MP2/6-311 + G(2df)-level. The pressures
