We report prelimhry results for the phottisxxxabon of water w~thm the fist absorpaon band obtamed from approxunate 3D quanlal cahlations using an ab uut~o potential energy surface for lhe A'B, state whoul adJustable parameters. Some of the resulls are dmxlly compared to recent measurements and encouragmg agreemenL is actueved.

The conformational preferences of 12 molecular substructures in the crystalline state have been determined and compared with those predicted for relevant model compounds by ab initio molecular orbital calculations. Least-squares regression shows that there is a statistically significant correlation
A reaction mechanism of water dissociation is proposed where solvent effects are accounted for via a minimum stable model that considers the interaction of ลฝ . five water molecules. It is based on the fully self-consistent field SCF optimized structures of the reactant, product, and transition state
