The molecular geometries of crown ether derivatives play an important role in capturing and transporting alkali metal
Question:
The molecular geometries of crown ether derivatives play an important role in capturing and transporting alkali metal ions. K. Okano and co-workers (see K. Okano, H. Tsukube, and K. Hori, Tetrahedron, 2004, 60, 10877) studied stable conformations of 12-crown-O3N and its Li+ complex in aqueous and acetonitrile solutions.
(a) Which three programs did the authors use in their study and what did each program calculate?
(b) Which Li+ complex was found to be most stable in
(i) Aqueous
(ii) Acetonitrile solutions
