英文摘要	The hydration of CO2 in water solution was investigated by the cluster-continuum model calculations with n = 18 water molecules. For n = 14 water molecules, all the reactions follow a concerted pathway to the hydration product directly. For n = 58 water molecules, all the reactions follow a stepwise mechanism and a labile H3O+ intermediate is involved in reaction. The surrounding water molecules from the bulk solvent play a key role in the proton relay process, which can stabilize the charged transition state and the H3O+ intermediate in reaction. Furthermore, if the proton transfer from H3O+ to the carbonyl oxygen occurs, the hydration pathway will be followed. If there is a proton transfer from H3O+ to the outer water phase through the water bridge, the dissociation product of HCO3- will be formed. The predicted reaction energetics by current cluster-continuum model calculations shows good agreement with the experimental values. Present calculations strongly suggest the suitable cluster-continuum model including more explicit water molecules highly required for reasonable and unbiased description of the proton relay mechanism for proton transfer related reactions in water solution.
