Table 2. Calculated binding sites and interaction energies between water and the R-type valinomycin monomers (MR) on the Cu(111) surface. A more negative energy indicates that the calculated system is more stable.

MR Mode a Mode b Mode c Mode d Mode e Mode f
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) C = O(1)
Interaction energy (kcal/mol) −5.59 −11.95 −8.20 −7.21 −13.80 −6.54

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