The solvation of trans amides has been investigated by the use of full gradient optimization ab initio quantum mechanical calculation techniques. The complexes have been determined at the Hartree-Fock (HF) level with a 4-31G*/4-31G** basis set and at the second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation (MP2) level. Three NMA-water clusters were investigated: trans-NMA with two molecules of water forming a ring cluster at the amide oxygen; trans-NMA with two molecules of water at the amide oxygen forming hydrogen bonds along the direction of the lone-pair electrons; trans-NMA with one molecule of water at the CO group and one at the NH group. In addition, 4-31G* basis set calculations for trans-NMA with two molecules of acetonitrile were performed. The C=O ... H(W) hydrogen bond lengths, electron-density population analysis and molecular-orbital analysis of trans-NMA with two molecules of water at the amide oxygen demonstrate the importance of concurrent water-water and water-(carbonyl) oxygen hydrogen-bond interactions. The complex of trans-NMA with two molecules of water forming a ring cluster at the amide oxygen indicates the formation of a non-planar amide bond and the generation of a chiral centre at the amide nitrogen; this structure has a 5% Boltzmann distribution at room temperature at the MP2 level. Vibrational-frequency analysis shows that its hydrogen-bonded water molecules are vibrationally coupled. Orbital analysis suggests that there is a considerable solute-occupied space reorganization caused by the rearrangement of the water solvent molecules. Comparisons are made with previous theoretical studies of amide-water interactions and experimental spectroscopic, X-ray and neutron-diffraction data on the hydration of amides, peptides and proteins.
