The energy barrier for the proton tunneling amounts to 6.5 kcal/mol. The normal mode frequencies have been computed including modes coupled to the proton tunneling mode. Two-dimensional model potentials, formed from symmetric mode coupling potential and squeezed double well potential, have been fitted to the calculated energy barrier, geometries and frequencies, and used to analyze proton dynamics. The calculated proton tunneling energy splitting in the vibrationally ground states of the low-frequency modes is ~3 cm -1. The two-dimensional model PES predict monotonic increase of the tunneling splitting with the excitation of the planar modes. Depending of the sign of the coupling parameter out-of-plane modes can either suppress or promote the splittings. Keywords: proton tunnelling, energy barrier, tunnelling splittings. Introduction The importance of proton tunneling in chemical and biological systems is well known, e.g. for the DNA base pairing, as discussed by Löwdin [1]. The phenomenon of potential barrier penetration plays an important role in many branches of physics: quantum field theory, fission of atomic nuclei, scanning tunneling microscopy and solid state physics []. Theoretical studies of proton tunneling require the knowledge of multi-dimensional potential energy surfaces (PES s) which are difficult to obtain from ab initio calculations, especially for electronically excited states. From the theoretical point of view proton transfer in the ground electronic state is more easily tractable. Extensive
2 Int. J. Mol. Sci. 3, 4 43 experimental and theoretical studies have been reported for multidimensional proton tunneling in tropolone [3-13]. Vener et al. [1] studied theoretically multidimensional proton tunneling in tropolone by using adiabatic separation of variables. Smedarchina et al. [11] used the instanton approach to account for tunnelling splittings. Takada and Nakamura [1] on the base of high accuracy ab initio calculations proposed a model potential energy surface (PES) for the electronically ground X ~ state and employed it to analyze the proton tunnelling dynamics. Wójcik et al. [13] reported the results of the high accuracy ab initio MO calculations of the potential energy surfaces in the excited à state of tropolone, and by fitting the two- and three-dimensional analytical model potentials to these surfaces and solving the multidimensional vibrational problems, interpreted the existing experimental data. Other systems for which tunnelling have been studied include malonaldehyde [14-17], formic acid [18], hydrogen-oxalate anion [16], substituted tropolone [19,] and 5-methyl-9-hydroxyphenalenone (OH and OD) [1], methanol tetramer [] and hydrogen carbonate dimer ion [3]. Recently a mixed quantum-classical approach has been used to study dynamics of hydrogen-bonded systems [4,5]. System which draws our attention in the present paper is benzoic acid dimer. It is present in the structure of the crystal [6-8]. Its proton transfer has been recently studied by inelastic neutron scattering by Plazanet et al. [9] and Fillaux et al. [3]. Vibrational spectra of benzoic acid have been reported in Refs. [31-3]. In this article we present the results of high accuracy ab initio MO and DFT calculations of the potential energy surfaces for the ground state of benzoic acid dimer in the stable and saddle point structures, and by fitting the two-dimensional analytical model potentials to these surfaces and solving the multidimensional vibrational problems, we predict the effects of excitations of the lowfrequency in- and out-of-plane modes on the proton tunnelling splittings. This paper is organized as follows. The results of our quantum chemical calculations for the ground state of benzoic acid dimer are presented in Sec. II. Model studies of the tunnelling are discussed in Sec. III. Concluding remarks are given in Sec. IV. Quantum Chemical Calculations We performed ab initio B3LYP/ G** calculations for the ground state of benzoic acid dimer using the Gaussian 98 program package [33]. The calculations have been done in the Computer Center of Hokkaido University in Sapporo, Japan and the Department of Materials Chemistry, Uppsala University in Sweden. The calculations have been performed for the stable and the saddle point structures. The geometry of benzoic acid dimer in the stable and the saddle point structures, calculated by the B3LYP/ G** method is shown in Fig. 1. Optimized geometry is summarized in Table 1. The complex is planar in the stable and the saddle point structures. The calculated values reproduce the experimental bond lengths and angles reasonably well. There are small discrepancies for C 1 -O and some C-C distances. Experimental C-H distances taken from Ref. [6] are only estimates. The angles are well reproduced except O C 1 C. The influence of the saddle point structure on geometry in hydrogen-bonded cyclic structure is considerable.

The calculated frequencies and symmetries of the normal modes at the stable and the saddle point structure are summarized in Table. The modes calculated by the B3LYP/ G** method and used in the model calculations are pictured in Fig.. The frequencies have not been scaled. The agreement between experimental and calculated frequencies is generally good, especially in the low and medium-frequency regions. The calculated frequencies in the region of O-H and C-H stretchings are overestimated by about 1-15 cm -1 and the frequency of the O-H symmetric stretching mode ν 73 is overestimated by ~5 cm -1. This is partly due to harmonic approximation and effects of intermolecular interactions on this mode in the crystal.

8 Int. J. Mol. Sci. 3, 4 49 Model Calculations On the basis of the ab initio calculations we constructed two-dimensional model PES for the proton tunnelling ν 73 coupled to chosen low-frequency modes of benzoic acid dimer which largely affect the tunnelling. These are the low-frequency planar hydrogen-bond stretching and bending modes ν 4, ν 7, ν 8, ν 11, ν 13 and ν 16 and the lowest-frequency out-of-plane modes ν 1, ν, ν 3, ν 5 and ν 6. They are shown in Fig. and their calculated vibrational frequencies are listed in Table. We assumed the symmetric (synchronous) double proton transfer in benzoic acid dimer in accordance with the results of ref. [18]. The two-dimensional model potentials used to simulate the couplings are [1,13]: (a) the symmetric mode coupling potential (SMC) describing couplings of the proton tunnelling mode ν 1 with the planar modes ν 8, ν 9 and ν 1 : V SMC 1 ω y ( x x ) ( x + x ) + [ y + ( x x )] 1 = α 8x ω and (b) the squeezed double well potential (SQZ) describing couplings of the proton tunneling mode ν 1 with the out-of-plane modes ν 1, ν 13 and ν 4 : V SQZ = 8x 1 1 ω ω x ωx ωx z z ( x x ) ( x + x ) + x γ ( x x )/ z, where x and y and z, denote the coordinates of the proton tunneling and the low-frequency modes, respectively, ω x, ω y and ω z are the angular frequencies, x o the distance between the two minima, α and γ the coupling strengths. In the formulas (1) and () the potentials are expressed in the units of the quantum ћω x and the coordinates x, y and z are dimensionless: ~ mxω x x = x, ~ myω y y = y, (3) ~ mzω z z = z. ~ x, ~ y and ~ z denote the dimensional coordinates and m x, m y and m z are the effective masses. The parameters x o, α and γ of the potentials (1) and () were estimated from the formulas: x (1) () x E = ωx, 8 y s γ = = α x, s ( ωz ωz ) ωz, ω x (4) s where E, y s and ω z denote the energy barrier, the value of the normal coordinate y of the coupled mode of the SMC potential at the saddle point structure and the angular frequency of the mode z at the
9 Int. J. Mol. Sci. 3, 4 43 saddle point structure, respectively. We used no ZPE energy barriers. The parameters used in subsequent calculations of the energy splittings have been calculated from the results of the B3LYP/ G** data and are listed in Table 4. The parameter α describing coupling between the O-H stretching mode ν 73 and the mode ν 4, ν 7, ν 8, ν 11, ν 13 or ν 16 represent an analogue of linear distortion parameters b used for theoretical reproduction of the X-H infrared band shapes of tropolone [34], salicylaldehyde [35] or aspirin [36]. Both different spectroscopic facts thus have the same origin, the anharmonic coupling in the potential energy between the two X-H and X...Y vibrations. Tunnelling energy splittings have been calculated variationally. The convergence has been confirmed by reproducing exactly the energy splittings reported by Takada and Nakamura [1] and calculated by the DVR method [37,38]. The results are presented in Table 5 for the two-dimensional model potentials (1) and (). The proton tunnelling energy splitting in the vibrationally ground states of the low-frequency modes is ca. 3 cm -1. This compares reasonably well with the experimental value 17 cm -1 obtained from the inelastic neutron scattering measurements for benzoic acid - D 5 H and recently reported by Fillaux et al. [3]. The two-dimensional model PES qualitatively explain increase of the tunnelling splitting with the excitation of the planar ν 4, ν 7, ν 8,ν 11, ν 13 and ν 16 modes. For the outof-plane modes the monotonic change depend on a sign of the coupling parameter γ. When the sign is positive (for modes ν 1 and ν ) one obtains monotonic decrease of the splitting with the excitation, and when it is negative (for the ν 3, ν 5 and ν 6 mode) the excitations cause increase of the splittings. This remains in agreement with our previous theoretical results for the excited state of tropolone [13] and hydrogen carbonate dimer [3]. Experimentally observed in tropolone promotion of the tunnelling by the excitation of the planar modes and its suppression by the excitation of the out-of-plane modes [7,8] are qualitatively confirmed in the present two-dimensional model calculations. Our previous results on the excited state of tropolone [13], hydrogen carbonate dimer ion [3] and the present ones do not require any adjustments and present pure quantum-mechanical approach to the problem of tunnelling splittings.

The tunnelling energy splittings for different vibrationally excited states have been calculated. The calculated proton tunnelling energy splitting in the vibrationally ground states of the low-frequency modes (~3 cm -1 ) compares reasonably well with the experimental value 17 cm -1 obtained from the inelastic neutron scattering measurements for benzoic acid - D 5 H [9]. Our model calculations predict the promotion of the proton tunnelling by the excitation of the planar modes. Depending of the sign of the coupling parameter γ, out-of-plane modes can either supress or promote the tunnelling. This results are confirmed by existing experimental data [7,8]. Our model presents a pure quantum-mechanical approach to the problem of the proton tunnelling splittings. References 1. Löwdin, P.O. Rev. Mod. Phys. 1963, 35, 74.. Nakamura, H. Ann. Rev. Phys.
