Density functional and correlated molecular orbital calculations (MP2) are carried out on B(OH)(3)center dot nH(2)O clusters (n = 0, 6, 32), and B(OH)(4)(-)center dot nH(2)O (n = 0, 8, 11, 32) to estimate the equilibrium distribution of B-10 and B-11 isotopes between boric acid and borate in aqueous solution. For the large 32-water clusters, multiple conformations are generated from ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to account for the effect of solvent fluctuations on the isotopic fractionation. We provide an extrapolated value of the equilibrium constant alpha(34) for the isotope exchange reaction B-10(OH)(3)(aq) + B-11(OH)(4)(-) (aq) = B-11(OH)(3)(aq) + B-11(OH)(4)(-) (aq) of 1.026-1.028 near the MP2 complete basis set limit with 32 explicit waters of solvation. With some exchange-correlation functionals we find potentially important contributions from a tetrahedral neutral B(OH)(3)center dot H2O Lewis acid-base complex. The extrapolations presented here suggest that DFT calculations give a value for 10(3)In alpha(34) about 15% higher than the MP2 calculations. (c) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
