Abstract

Even 0.02 % water in acetonitrile can form clusters, the size and chemical reactivity of which can change under the influence of the Sun. Bulk water added to such acetonitrile can copy and reproduce these original clusters and acquire different hydrolytic activities depending on the size of the copied clusters. As a result, the rate of hydrolytic reactions with the added water can vary depending on where the acetonitrile was located before the reaction - outdoors, inside buildings or underground.
