A reaction mechanism of water dissociation is proposed where solvent effects are accounted for via a minimum stable model that considers the interaction of five water molecules. It is based on the fully self-consistent field (SCF) optimized structures of the reactant, product, and transition state, the calculations being at the Hartree-Fock and configuration interaction level [Møller-Plesset second-order perturbation (MP2) and coupled-cluster single and double excitations (CCSD)]. They were performed with four different basis sets that included polarized and diffuse orbitals. The dissociative mechanism leads to the ionic species OH-+H3O+ as stable products and upon analysis of the energy hypersurface, a transition state is found which yields an activation barrier of 21.2 kcal/mol. This value is in good agreement with the experimentally determined enthalpy for the reaction. The contribution of the aggregation energy is emphasized. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
