A systematic conformational search reveals three N- (amino) and eight O- (carbonyl) protonated glycine conformers with benchmark equilibrium(adiabatic) relative energies in the 0.00-7.51(0.00-7.37) and 25.91-31.61(24.45-30.28) kcal mol-1 ranges, respectively. Benchmark ab initio structures of the glycine conformers and its protonated species are obtained at the CCSD(T)-F12b/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory and the relative energy computations consider basis-set effects up to aug-cc-pVQZ with CCSD(T)-F12b, electron correlation up to CCSDT(Q), core correlation corrections, scalar relativistic effects, and zero-point energy contributions. The best predictions for Boltzmann-averaged 0(298.15) K proton affinities and [298.15 K gas-phase basicities] of glycine are 211.00(212.43)[204.75] and 186.38(187.64)[180.21] kcal mol-1 for N- and O-protonation, respectively, in excellent agreement with experiments.
通过系统的构象搜索,揭示了三种 N-(氨基)和八种 O-(羰基)质子化甘氨酸构象,在 0.00-7.51(0.00-7.37)和 25.91-31.61(24.45-30.28)千卡/摩尔的范围内,具有基准平衡(绝热)相对能量。在 CCSD(T)-F12b/aug-cc-pVTZ 理论水平上获得了甘氨酸构象及其质子化物种的基准从头算结构,并且相对能量计算考虑了截至 aug-cc-pVQZ 的基组效应,以及 CCSDT(Q)的电子相关、核相关修正、标量相对论效应和零点能贡献。对于 0(298.15)K 条件下的质子亲和能和[298.15 K 气相碱度]的最佳 Boltzmann 平均预测值,N-和 O-质子化甘氨酸分别为 211.00(212.43)[204.75]和 186.38(187.64)[180.21]千卡/摩尔,与实验结果非常吻合。
