Natural bond orbital （NBO）, quantum theory of atoms in molecules （QTAIM） analyses and the localized molecular orbital energy decomposition analysis （LMO-EDA） were performed to explore the nature of the hydrogen-bonding interactions in these complexes. Various types of hydro- gen bonds （H-bonds） are formed in these 5-HT-H20 complexes. The intermolecular C4H55HT＇＂Ow H-bond in HTW3 is strengthened due to the cooperativity, whereas no such cooperativity is found in the other 5-HT-H20 complexes. H-bond in which nitrogen atom of amino in 5-HT acted as proton donors was stronger than other H-bonds. Our researches show that the hydrogen bonding interaction plays a vital role on the relative stabilities of 5-HT-H20 complexes.展开更多
