Table 1. Calculated binding sites and interaction energies between water and the L-type valinomycin monomers (ML) on the Cu(111) surface. A more negative energy indicates that the calculated system is more stable.

ML Mode a Mode b Mode c Mode d Mode e
Binding sites N(1)H O = C − O(2); C = O(18) C = O(3) O = C − O(5) C = O(1); C = O(4)
Interaction energy (kcal/mol) −6.00 −12.57 −9.07 −7.44 −13.25

Note: The code number of the nitrogen or oxygen atoms is consistent with the structural formula of valinomycin in Figure 1a.
