RESUMEN
The Kr-CH3OH (Krypton-Methanol) system has several technological applications, such as the determination of diffusivity coefficients, their use in the development of detectors and combustion techniques among others. We report an extensive theoretical study concerning the stability of such complex. A mix between molecular dynamics, electronic structure calculations and solution of the nuclear Schrodinger equation lead to investigation of spectroscopic constants, lifetime of the complex and its Quantum Theory Atom in Molecules (QTAIM) properties. The study of the Potential Energy Curves (PEC) suggested three configurations to be stable as their potential well were able to harbor 9 vibrational levels. Properties from the curves also allowed us to obtain the lifetime of the complex, whose values were >1â¯ps regardless of the conformation. Furthermore, topological investigations of the charge density profile of the complex, in the scope of QTAIM properties, show that van der Waals type interactions takes place between the noble gas and the methanol molecule. These features are in consonance to the experimental fact that this complex is stable.
