The present work outlines the fair relationship of the computational model with the experiments on anion photoelectron spectroscopy for the gold-water complexes [Au(H2O)1≤n≤2]- that is established between the auride anion Au- and water monomer and dimer thanks to the nonconventional hydrogen bond where Au- casts as the nonconventional proton acceptor. This work also extends the computational model to the larger complexes [Au(H2O)3≤n≤5]- where gold considerably thwarts the shape of water clusters and even particularly breaks their conventional hydrogen bonding patterns. The fascinating phenomenon of the lavish proton acceptor character of Au- to form at least six hydrogen bonds with molecules of water is computationally unveiled in the present work for the first time.

s-Tetrazine argon complexes T−Arn (n = 1, 2) are formed in a supersonic expansion of argon seeded with s-tetrazine. The expansion was conducted through a nozzle of 50 or 100 μm with an argon stagnation pressure between 1 and 1.5 bar. From spectrally resolved measurements it is clear that vibrational redistribution processes as well as vibrational predissociation processes take place after SVL excitation within the complex.From rise and decay time experiments it can be concluded, that after excitation of the 6a1 complex level, the above mentioned processes are consecutive and not parallel. It appears that the out of plane mode 16a couples with the Van der Waals stretching mode. The predissociation rate of the 16a2 complex is observed to be 2.3 × 109 s−1.
