aCalculated using the sequential quantum mechanics (QM) and molecular mechanics (MM) methodology (S-QM/MM; μ QM/MM) procedure and the polarizable continuum model (μ PCM), both with MP2/aug-ccpVDZ/CHELPG (see Fig. 6 and text)

bIn this calculation, the water environment was modeled as two hydrogen-bonded water molecules only.

cIn this calculation, the water environment was modeled as two hydrogen-bonded water molecules plus PCM model
