The conformations of 1,7DSU and its stepwise solvation by up to 5 water molecules were explored using supersonic-jet Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy with the supplement of theoretical calculations. Experimentally, the rotational spectra of the most stable structures of the monomer, monohydrate and dihydrate were observed and assigned. The characteristics of the stability and intermolecular interaction topologies of the 1,7DSU monomer and its hydrated clusters were obtained by CREST conformational sampling followed by B3LYP-D3(BJ)/def2-TZVP geometrical optimizations and MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ single-point energy calculations. The first water molecule links to the 1,7DSU monomer through an OwH⋯O hydrogen bond. The water molecules tend to aggregate with each other and form cyclic structures for the n = 2–5 clusters. The interactions between water and the 1,7DSU monomer as well as those between water and water were revealed. The analyses of non-covalent interactions and the natural bond orbital suggest that the OwH⋯O1,7DSU, OwH⋯Ow, and CH⋯Ow hydrogen bonds play a prominent role in structural stability.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
