Emergence of Solvent-Separated Na+–Cl– Ion Pair in Salt Water: Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Theoretical Calculations

“…Sodium chloride (NaCl) is the most common and simplest salt. It is not only important in atmospheric chemistry, biochemistry, and our daily life, but also a basic model system for understanding the solvation of salts in water. In the last decades, many theoretical studies including ab initio calculations, − Monte Carlo simulations, − and molecular dynamics simulations − have been performed on NaCl­(H 2 O) n clusters or aqueous NaCl solutions.…”

Comparison of the Microsolvation of CaX2 (X = F, Cl, Br, I) in Water: Size-Selected Anion Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Theoretical Calculations

“…Understanding the solvation of salts in water is very important in the fields of physical chemistry, biochemistry, marine chemistry, and atmospheric chemistry. − The interactions between salt ions and water molecules have nonnegligible effects on water hydrogen-bond networks, the solubility of different substances, and chemical reactions in aqueous solutions. − Many experimental − and theoretical studies − have been performed to investigate the solvation processes of salts in water at the molecular level. To provide detailed information about the transition between salt contact ion pairs (CIPs) and solvent-separated ion pairs (SSIPs) with an increasing number of water molecules, in the last ten years, we investigated the structures and properties of a series of salt-water clusters using the technique of size-selected anion photoelectron spectroscopy combining with theoretical calculations. − …”

Microsolvation of Sodium Thiocyanate in Water: Gas Phase Anion Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Theoretical Calculations

“…Dissolution of salts in water has been investigated intensively by experiments − and theoretical calculations − due to its importance in industry, , biological systems, , marine chemistry, atmospheric chemistry, − and environmental chemistry. − Sodium thiocyanate is a useful nucleophilic reagent in organic chemistry, which can be used for thiocyanation. , The thiocyanate group (SCN) is a pseudohalogen with a high electron affinity . The thiocyanate anion (SCN – ) is considered as a chaotrope of the Hofmeister series. − It can bind to the amide group of the protein backbone, thus causing the increase of protein solubility and protein denaturation. − The structure of sodium thiocyanate in the crystal phase has been investigated by X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction experiments. , The structures of sodium thiocyanate monomers and clusters in the gas phase have been investigated in detail using ab initio calculations and compared with the crystal-phase structure .…”
