The structure and energy characteristics of structures formed during arginine adsorption on silica surface from aqueous solution were studied by the density functional theory (B3LYP) method using a valence-split basis set 6-31++G(d,p) within the continuous solvent model (PCM) and supermolecular approximation. The equilibrium structural and energy parameters of the protonated arginine molecule in the gas phase dependent on the location of the hydrogen atom are considered including those of two possible zwitterions. The structure of the arginine ion Н2А+, which is formed when a proton attaches to a molecule or zwitterion of a given amino acid, has been elucidated. To determine the deprotonation constant of the carboxyl group in an acidic medium, the complexes of the arginine molecule (AH32+) in the state with undissociated and deprotonated carboxyl groups are considered. The simulation of the acid medium was performed by taking into account the interaction with two hydrated HCl ion pairs, which provided the protonation of the α-amino group and the nitrogen atom of amino group within the guanidine group. In the study on the interaction of an arginine molecule with silica surface in an aqueous medium, complexes containing a Si8O12(OH)7O– ion with a deprotonated silanol group, six water molecules, and an arginine molecule with a deprotonated carboxyl group were considered. It has been found that the arginine molecule is most likely to be adsorbed on slica surface with formation of hydrogen bonds between the hydrogen atoms of the α-amino group and the oxygen atom of the deprotonated silanol group. In this case, the formation of a hydrogen bond between the oxygen atom of the carboxyl group and the hydrogen atom of the neighboring silanol group is possible. Slightly less likely is adsorption of arginine molecules due to interaction of the guanidine group with silanol groups of the surface. According to the calculated data, the adsorption of the zwitterionic form of the arginine molecule from the aqueous solution is equally likely to occur due to interaction of silanol groups of silica surface with both the carboxyl group and the guanidine group.
