A Computational Study of the Solvation Chemistry of Zr4+ Cation Vojislava Pophristic, Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, University of the Sciences in Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA 19104 Despite widespread applications of zirconium, the structure and dynamics of the polynuclear species resulting from Zr4+ solvation in aqueous solution are not well understood. We conducted a combination of ab initio molecular dynamics and quantum mechanical studies in gas-phase and aqueous solution, and related our results to the available experimental data, to provide atom-level information on the behavior of this species in aqueous solution. We have determined structures of several stable dimer and trimer clusters, which in combination with our studies of the Zr4+ tetramer, provide detailed geometrical information on structural motifs for building zirconium polymers, and suggest a possible polymerization path. The Zr4+ tetramer, [Zr4(OH)8(H2O)16]8+, is thought to be the major component of the Zr4+ polymer system in aqueous solution. Our simulations indicate that the tetramer structure is stable on the picosecond time scale in an aqueous environment, and that it is of a planar form, comprising eight-coordinated Zr4+ ions with antiprism/irregular dodecahedron ligand arrangement.
