The structures of the protonated water cluster H+(H2O)8 have been globally explored by the scaled hypersphere search method. On the Hartree-Fock potential energy surface 174 isomers were found, among which 168 were computed to be minima at the B3LYP/6-31+G** level, and their energies were further refined at the level of MP2/6-311++G(3df,2p). The global minimum on the potential energy surface computed at the B3LYP/6-31+G** level shows a cagelike structure with the "Eigen" motif, while the lowest-free-energy isomer has a five-membered-ring structure at 170 K and a chain form at 273 K. The present results are well in line with previous experimental findings. In addition, the
ADMP
(atom-centered density matrix propagation) simulation indicates that the extra proton in the lowest-free-energy isomer (170 K), which has a five-membered ring and the "Zundel" feature, is often in an
asymmetrical
hydrogen bond.
