Ab initio SCF and MP2 calculations have been performed on the structural and energetic properties of HsO-2C0. Three possible energy minima were found, all forming almost linear hydrogen bonds. The most stable species was observed when both carbon monoxide monomers were attached to water via the carb

✦ Synopsis
The computed 2A2-2B2 separations of the alkali superoxides are in good agreement with those deduced from electron-spin resonance spectra. The calculations definitively show that the ground state of CsOz is *AZ. The larger than expected separation for CsOr, based on the trend from LiOr to RbOx, is attributed primarily to the differential effects of core relaxation. The CsOr dissociation energy is computed to be 42.7 kcal/mol, with an uncertainty conservatively estimated as f 4 kcal/mol.
