A perturbational approach (M-method) for the calculation of the interaction energies of N 2 , O 2 , Ar and CO in zeolite cavities is presented. The calculation method is compared with the 'molecule in point charge environment' calculation and a full ab initio calculation tested along an axis connect

β¦ Synopsis
Non-local density functional theory has been used to study the binding of methanol to cluster models for aluminosilicates. Physisorbed methanol is the most stable binding geometry while a methoxonium cation complexed to the fragments is found to be a transition state, not a local minimum. Calculated vibrational frequencies accord with those measured experimentally for the dominant species at low adsorbate pressures.
