Experimental and theoretical investigation of HC5N adsorption on amorphous ice surface: simulation of the interstellar chemistry.
HC 5N adsorbed on amorphous water ice at 10 K presents an interaction with the ice surface and induces the restructuring of the ice amorphous bulk. Warming up the sample induces the HC 5N desorption from the H 2O ice film, between 120 and 160 K, and the associated desorption energy is 90 kJ/mol. This value is in good agreement with that calculated E d (80 kJ/mol) and gives evidence that the amorphous ice surface is essentially dynamic. From theoretical calculations, it is shown that the HC 5N moiety presents a curvature and is no more linear and stabilized by two strong N...H bonds (2.09 and 2.29 A) and one H...O bond (1.84 A).
