Abstract

A method for calculating proton transfer enthalpies by a proper modification of the recent H-bonding version of MNDO is presented. This method perceives the proton as being both "bonded" and "hydrogen bonded" to the two electronegative atoms involved in the hydrogen bond: as it moves from one potential minimum at X-H---Y to the other at X---H-Y, a hydrogen bonding function is attached to the proportion of the distance that is to be traversed. The method is applied to two proton transfers within anionic oxygen H-bonded complexes and is shown to reduce the previously calculated barriers which were too high. Gas phase results for the single step of proton transfer over a barrier are required to evaluate the results obtained by this method.
