Fig. 2.1. Fully optimized minimum energy structures at BHHLYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory for (I)<br />
I 2•¯.H 2 O, (II) I 2•¯.2H 2 O, (III) I 2•¯.3H 2 O, (IV) I 2•¯.4H 2 O, (V) I 2•¯.5H 2 O, (VI) I 2•¯.6H 2 O, (VII) I 2•¯.7H 2 O,<br />
and (VIII) I 2•¯.8H 2 O clusters. I atoms are shown by the largest green colour spheres, the smallest spheres<br />
refer to H atoms and the rest (red in colour) corresponds to O atoms in each structure shown in the figure.<br />
Marked alphabets in upper case are used to refer different minimum energy conformers for each hydrated<br />
cluster size arranged in order of stability showing ‘A’ as the most stable one.<br />
