Ab initio SCF investigation of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The potential energy surface of ,-hydroxybutyric acid was investigated by means of ab initio 4-31 G SCF calculations.
Sixty-six symmetry unique local minima are contained in this potential energy surface. Intramolecular interactions and all reactions, which involve the intramolecular hydrogen bond CO-O-H· .. O--H are discussed. Combination with the results for -y-aminobutyric acid yields a comparison of hydrogen bonds involving the groups -OH and -NH
