Helium nanodroplet infrared spectroscopy of oxazole-(water)n (n = 1,2) clusters

The mass-selective infrared (IR) spectra of oxazole-(D2O)n≤2 complexes embedded in helium droplets are recorded in the spectral range of 2565–2800 cm−1. The experimental IR spectra are assigned by comparing with quantum chemical calculations at the MP2/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Here, we show th...
