Notes:
Theoretical calculations with the ab initio molecular orbital STO-3G basis set on the effect of trihydration on the relative acidities of 3- and 4-substituted phenols, 4-substituted quinuclidinium ions and 4-substituted bicyclo [2.2.2]octylammonium ions are reported. These results are contrasted with calculations on non-hydrated species and compared with results in aqueous solution and in the gas phase. Unlike results for smaller molecules such as substituted acetic acids and methylammonium ions, the solvation effects of three molecules of water are far short of that observed in going from the gas phase to aqueous solution. Reasons for this are discussed in the context of solvent attenuation factors for various molecules.
