title: Hydrogen bonding of water in 3-methylpyridine studied by O 1s X-ray emission and absorption spectroscopy.
abstract: O 1s X-ray emission and X-ray absorption spectroscopy is applied to probe hydrogen bonding of water (D(2)O) in 3-methylpyridine. Owing to element selectivity of X-ray spectroscopies the electronic structure of water in the binary mixture was observed selectively. Based on the observed spectral changes associated with hydrogen bonding in O 1s X-ray emission and X-ray absorption spectra, we have investigated the hydrogen bond of the mixture sample over a wide range of D(2)O concentrations (X(D(2)O) = 0.02-1.0) at room temperature under atmospheric pressure.
