An empirical potential of binary molecular clusters of (NH3)m(H2O)4 is proposed.Stable model structures of NH3(H2O)4 are optimized by using a fast molecular dynamics algorithm.The optimal structures are refined by using conventional ab initio optimization method.Optimization and frequency calculations are carried out at different levels of density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) and Mller-Plesset second-order perturbation method(MP2) with 6-311++G** basis set.It is found that stable model structures remain the minima at B3LYP and MP2 levels.12 new ab initio stable isomers of NH3(H2O)4,including the second and third ones are obtained.The results show that there is no inevitable relevancy between stability and dipole moment,and the number of hydrogen bonds of isomers.
