Abstract
The interactions between molecular hosts and ionic guests and their dependence on the chemical environment are challenging to disentangle from solution data alone. The vibrational spectra of cold complexes of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) chelating alkaline earth dications in vacuo encode structural characteristics of these complexes and their dependence on the size of the bound ion. The correlation between metal binding geometry and the relative intensities of vibrational bands of the carboxylate groups forming the binding pocket allows us to characterize water-induced changes in molecular geometry. The evolution of these structural markers from bare ions to water adducts to aqueous solution illustrates the role of water for the structure of ion binding sites in chelators. The binding pocket of EDTA opens up in aqueous solution, bringing the bound ion closer to the mouth of the binding site and leading to an increased exposure of the ion to the chemical environment.

Abstract
In this work, the structures, quantum chemical descriptors, morphologic characterization of the azo-methoxy-calix[4]arene were investigated. The analyses and interpretation of the theoretical and the experimental IR spectroscopy results for the corresponding compounds was performed. The complexation of the azo-methoxy-calix[4]arene with Zn2+,Hg2+ , Cu2+ , Co2+, Ni2+ , Pb2+ and Cd2+metal cations has been calculated by the dispersion corrected density functional theory (DFT-D3). The values of the interaction energies show that the specific molecule is more selective to the Cu2+ cation. The study of the reactivity parameters confirms that the azo-methoxy-calix[4]arene molecule is more reactive and sensitive to the Cu2+ cation than that Co2+ and Cd2+. In addition, the investigation of the electrophilic and nucleophilic sites has been studied by the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) analysis. The Hirshfeld surface (HS) analysis of the azo-methoxy-calix[4]arene-Cu2+ interaction have been used to understand the Cu⋯hydrogen-bond donors formed between the cation and the specific compound. The Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM) via Non covalent Interaction (NCI) analysis was carried out to demonstrate the nature, the type and the strength of the interaction formed between the Cu2+ cation and the two symmetrical ligands and the cavity. Finally, the chemical sensor properties based on the Si/SiO2/Si3N4/Azo-methoxy-calix[4]arene for detection of Cu2+ cation were studied. Sensing performances are determined with a linear range from 10-5.2 to 10-2.2 M. The Si/SiO2/Si3N4/azo-methoxy-calix[4]arene structure is a promoter to have a good performance sensor.

Abstract
In this study, we examined the conformation and intermolecular interactions of benzo-12-crown-4 (B12C4) complexes with NH4+, CH3NH3+ (MeNH3+), CH3CH2NH3+ (EtNH3+), and CH3CH2CH2NH3+ (PrNH3+) using cold gas-phase spectroscopy. All of the B12C4 complexes showed sharp vibronic features in the UV photodissociation spectra, and the position of the 0-0 band was close to that of the B12C4 complex with an isotropic K+ guest. This result suggests that the conformation of B12C4 is maintained despite oriented interactions with ammonium guests via anisotropic N-H···O interactions. Further, we measured the IR-UV double-resonance spectra of these complexes in the NH stretching region. In the IR-UV spectra of the EtNH3+ and PrNH3+ complexes, two distinct IR fingerprints were observed depending on the UV probe wavelength selected, indicating the existence of another (second) conformer for these complexes. Quantum chemical calculations clarified that the second conformer of the EtNH3+ and PrNH3+ complexes was partially stabilized by the C-H···π hydrogen bond. The conformation of B12C4 complexes with ammonium ions is strongly affected by the interaction between the alkyl chain of the ion guest and the benzene ring of the B12C4 host, although the main intermolecular interaction occurs between the NH3+ group and crown cavity through the N-H···O hydrogen bonds.

Abstract
Ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) complexes with NH4+, CH3NH3+ (MeNH3+), and CH3CH2NH3+ (EtNH3+) [NH4+(DB18C6), MeNH3+(DB18C6), and EtNH3+(DB18C6), respectively] were observed under cold gas-phase conditions. We also measured the infrared (IR)-UV double-resonance spectra of these complexes in the NH stretching region to examine the encapsulation structure. The UVPD and IR-UV spectra were analyzed using quantum chemical calculations. All the ammonium complexes show sharp 0-0 bands at positions close to that of the K+(DB18C6) complex; the conformation of the DB18C6 component in the ammonium complexes is similar to that in K+(DB18C6). In addition, the ammonium complexes each have another type of isomer that the K+(DB18C6) complex does not show in the gas phase. In these isomers, the conformation of the DB18C6 cavity changes, and the strength of the NH···O hydrogen bond increases. During the UVPD, the NH4+(DB18C6) complex provides various photofragment species, such as the C8H9O2+ ion, resulting from cleavage of the DB18C6 component, whereas the dominant fragment ion for the MeNH3+(DB18C6) and EtNH3+(DB18C6) complexes is the ammonium ion itself. The UVPD investigation of deuterated systems suggests that after UV excitation of the NH4+(DB18C6) complex, the dissociation process is initiated by proton transfer from NH4+ to DB18C6, followed by the migration of hydrogen atoms in the crown cavity and the cleavage of the ether ring.
