The structure of liquid methanol by H/D substitution technique of neutron diffraction

Abstract: Neutron diffraction (ND) measurements on liquid methanol (CD3OD,CD3O(H/D),CD3OH) under ambient conditions have been performed to obtain the total (intra-+intermolecular), Gdist(r) and intermolecular, Ginter(r) radial distribution functions (rdfs) for the three samples. The extent to which intermolecular structure is affected by using two different intramolecular models is discussed. The H/D substitution on hydroxyl–hydrogen (Ho) has been used to extract the partial distribution functions, GXHodist/inter(r) (X=… Show more

“…Both the decoupled 5 and the coupled 6 approaches have been applied in structural modeling applications. In more complex systems, such as alcohols, 7,8 the intramolecular structure has been proven to have an effect on the intermolecular structure at short and even intermediate distances. 9 The determination of the intramolecular structure in the liquid or the solid phases is not an easy task.…”

“…16,17 It has therefore been thought that something similar could be occurring in the liquid phase and be responsible for its peculiar behavior. Several numerical simulations [18][19][20][21][22][23] and neutron diffraction experiments [24][25][26] have produced data that support this view. On the other hand, experimental results of neutron diffraction, 27,28 x-ray scattering, 29,30 and x-ray emission spectroscopy 31 have been taken to support the existence of cyclic clusters of methanol in the liquid phase.…”

The first two curves were constructed from the partial radial distribution functions using the weighting scheme suggested by Adya et al 26 In Fig. 5 the comparison shows that the disagreement between the theoretical and the experimental lines is similar to that shown between both experimental curves.…”
