27) Clusters. -Size-selected protonated water clusters H + (H 2 O) n (n = 6-27) are characterized by IR spectroscopy of OH stretches in the gas phase. Spectral features disappearing for the n = 21 magic cluster indicate that all the dangling OH groups arise from water molecules in similar binding sites. It is suggested that the n = 21 cluster structure consists of a dodecahedral cage with a single interior water molecule. -(SHIN, J.-W.; HAMMER, N. I.; DIKEN, E. G.; JOHNSON*, M. A.; WALTERS, R.
