Lithium bonded complexes with $H_2O$ molecule were investigated theoretically by varying the substituent of lithium compound as follows; LiH, LiLi, $LiCH_3,\;LiNH_2$, LiOH, LiF, and LiCl. Some hydrogen bonded complexes with $H_2O$ molecule were also investigated to be compared with lithium bonded analogues. Electron correlation effect on the structures and energies of lithium bond was also investigated through MP2 and MP4 corrections. Unlike hydrogen bond with $H_2O$ molecule, lithium bonded complexes with $H_2O$ molecule were found to be interacting linearly with $H_2O$ molecule. Electron correlation effect was very small for lithium bonded complexes. The lithium bond energies were found to be less affected by the choice of substituent of lithium compound.

The halide-acetylene anions, X^--HCCH (X = F, Cl, and Br) have been studied by using several different ab initio and DFT methods to determine structures, hydrogen-bond energies, vibrational frequencies of the anion complexes. Although the halide-acetylene complexes all have linear equilibrium structures, it is found that the fluoride complex is characterized with distinctively different structure and interactions compared to those of the chloride and bromide complexes. The performance of various density functionals on describing ionic hydrogen-bonded complexes is assessed by examining statistical deviations with respect to high level ab initio CCSD(T) results as reference. The density functionals employed in the present work show considerably varying degrees of performance depending on the properties computed. The performances of each density functional on geometrical parameters related with the hydrogen bond, hydrogen-bond energies, and scaled harmonic frequencies of the anion complexes are examined and discussed based on the statistical deviations.

By use of a simple two-point extrapolation scheme estimating the correlation energies of the molecules along with the basis sets specifically targeted for extrapolation, we have shown that the MP2 basis set limit binding energies of large hydrogen-bonded complexes can be accurately predicted with relatively small amount of computational cost. The basis sets employed for computation and extrapolation consist of the smallest correlation consistent basis set cc-pVDZ and another basis set made of the cc-pVDZ set plus highest angular momentum polarization functions from the cc-pVTZ set, both of which were then augmented by diffuse functions centered on the heavy atoms except hydrogen in the complex. The correlation energy extrapolation formula takes the (X+1)-3 form with X corresponding to 2.0 for the cc-pVDZ set and 2.3 for the other basis set. The estimated MP2 basis set limit binding energies for water hexamer, hydrogen fluoride pentamer, alaninewater, phenol-water, and guanine-cytosine base pair complexes of nucleic acid by this method are 45.2(45.9), 36.1(37.5), 10.9(10.7), 7.1(6.9), and 27.6(27.7) kcal/mol, respectively, with the values in parentheses representing the reference basis set limit values. A comparison with the DFT results by B3LYP method clearly manifests the effectiveness and accuracy of this method in the study of large hydrogen-bonded complexes.

We have performed quantum mechanical calculations to study the geometries and binding energies of biologically important, cyclic hydrogen-bonded complexes, such as formic acid + $H_2O$, formamidine + $H_2O$, formamide + $H_2O$, formic acid dimer, formamidine dimer, formamide dimer, formic acid + formamide, formic acid + formamidine, formamide + formamidine, and barrier heights for the double proton transfer in these complexes. Various ab initio, density functional theory, multilevel methods have been used. Geometries and energies depend very much on the level of theory. In particular, the transition state symmetry of the proton transfer in formamidine dimer varies greatly depending on the level of theory, so very high level of theory must be used to get any reasonable results.

trans-Dihydroxo[5,10,15,20-tetrakis(n-pyridyl)porphyrinato]tin(IV) (n = 3 and 4) complexes have been synthesized and fully characterized. X-ray structural analysis of trans-dihydroxo[5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-pyridyl)porphyrinato]tin(IV) reveals that the supramolecular hydrogen bondings between the hydroxotin(IV) porphyrins and lattice water molecules form a hydrogen-bonded two-dimensional network. The hydrogen bonding mode between the tin(IV) porphyrins and the water molecules closely resembles that of the hydrogenbonded outer-sphere intermediate in the acidolysis of dihydroxotin(IV) porphyrins.

We have calculated energies and structures for the hydrogen bonded clusters between trimethyl phosphate and nitric acids. The hydrogen bond lengths between phosphoryl oxygen and the proton of nitric acid are short compared to normal hydrogen bonds, and the H-bond strengths are fairly strong. The hydrogen bond length becomes longer, and the strength becomes weaker, as more nitric acids are bound to the TMP. The average H-bond strengths for the $TMP-(HNO_3)_n$ complexes with n = 1, 2, and 3, are 9.6, 7.9 and 6.4kcal/mol at 300K respectively. Weak hydrogen bonds between nitrate oxygen and methyl proton might contribute to the stability of the clusters. Not only the BSSE but also the fragment relaxation energies should be considered to calculate hydrogen bond strengths for the complexes accurately.

The reactions of [Ni(L)(H₂O)₂]Cl₂ (L = 2,5,9,12-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) with terephtalate (tp) and 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylate (pdc) generate one-dimensional nickel(II) complexes, [Ni(L)(H₂O)₂](tp) · ₄H₂O (1) and [Ni(L)(H₂O)₂](pdc)·₄H₂O (2). The structures have been characterized by X-ray crystallography, magnetic susceptibility and spectroscopy. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 show a distorted octahedral coordination geometry around the Ni(II) ion, with secondary amines of the macrocycle and two water molecules at the trans position. Complexes 1 and 2 display the one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded infinite chains. The magnetic behavior of all compounds exhibits weak interchain antiferromagnetic interactions with J values of -1.09(3) for 1 and -1.14(2) cm-1 for 2.

The nature of hydrogen bonding between thioacetamide and azines has been thoroughly investigated using near IR absorption spectroscopy. The νN-H + amide II combination band in thioacetamide (TA) has been analyzed to determine the thermodynamic constants for the formation of hydrogen bonded 1:1 TA:azine complexes in CCl4 and CHCl3 solutions. The relative stabilities of TA-azine complexes (pyridine->1,2-diazine->1,3-diazine->1,4-diazine-TA) are in good agreement with the relative proton affinities of azines in the gas phase. The results serve as a basis for analyzing the factors which influence the hydrogen bonding formation of TA in nonaqueous solutions.

Intermolecular interaction energies and conformer geometries of the hydrogen bonded acrylamide dimers have been studied by using the second-order Møller-Plesset (MP2) perturbation theory and the density functional theory (DFT) with 17 density functionals. Dunning's correlation consistent basis sets (up to aug-cc-pVTZ) have been used to study the basis set effects. The DFT calculated interaction energies are compared to the reference energy data calculated by the MP2 method and the coupled cluster method at the complete basis set (CCSD(T)/CBS) limit in order to determine the relative performance of the studied density functionals. Overall, dispersion-energy-corrected density functionals outperform uncorrected ones. The ${\omega}B97XD$ density functional is particularly effective in terms of both accuracy and computational cost in estimating the reference energy values using small basis sets and is highly recommended for similar calculations for larger systems.

We have performed DFT B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) calculations to investigate the complexation behaviors of the ethyl ester derivative of p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene (1) toward a variety of alkylammonium ions. We have studied the binding sites of these host-guest complexes focusing on the p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene pocket (endo) of 1. The smaller alkylammonium cations have the better complexation efficiency than the bulkier alkylammonium ions with the p-tert-butylcalix[6]aryl ester. The hydrogen-bonding of N-H$\ldots$O is one of the important factors for the complexation behavior of the p-tert-butylcalix[6]aryl ester, in addition to the NH-aromatic π, CH-aromatic π and electrostatic interactions, and the steric hindrance of alkylammonium cation. The hydrogen-bonded distances and angles of N-H$\ldots$O are reported for the complexes of the p-tert-butylcalix[6]aryl ester with various alkylammonium ions.
