Concertedness and solvent effects in multiple proton transfer reactions: the formic acid dimer in solution

Using an approach based on a hybrid quantum mechanical-molecular mechanical (QM-MM) strategy, the case of double proton transfer (PT) in the formic acid dimer, embedded in a cluster of polar solvent molecules was examined. The aim was to determine the influence of external constraints and solvent fl...
