Clusters of Hydroxyl-Functionalized Cations Stabilized by Cooperative Hydrogen Bonds: The Role of Polarizability and Alkyl Chain Length

We explore quantum chemical calculations for studying clusters of hydroxyl-functionalized cations kinetically stabilized by hydrogen bonding despite strongly repulsive electrostatic forces. In a comprehensive study, we calculate clusters of ammonium, piperidinium, pyrrolidinium, imidazolium, pyridin...
