Abstract
AbstractThe disulfide‐centered hydrogen bonds in the three different model systems of diethyl disulfide⋅⋅⋅H2O/H2CO/HCONH2 clusters were characterized by high‐resolution Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy and quantum chemical computations. The global minimum energy structures for each cluster are experimentally observed and are characterized by one of the three different S−S⋅⋅⋅H−C/N/O disulfide‐centered hydrogen bonds and two O⋅⋅⋅H−C hydrogen bonds. Non‐covalent interaction and natural bond orbital analyses further confirm the experimental observations. The symmetry‐adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) analysis reveals that electrostatic is dominant in diethyl disulfide⋅⋅⋅H2O/HCONH2 clusters being consistent with normal hydrogen bonds, whilst dispersion takes over in diethyl disulfide⋅⋅⋅H2CO cluster. Our study gives accurate structural parameters for the disulfide bond involved non‐covalent clusters providing important benchmarking data for the theoretical evaluation of more complex systems.
