Structure of Hydroperoxide Anion from the Viewpoint of Quantum Chemistry

In living nature, of significance is lipid peroxidation caused by highly- reactive oxygen-containing species. Hydroperoxide anion –OOH represents a protolytic kind of hydrogen peroxide H2O2 – one of active forms of oxygen, – and a precursor of hydroperoxyradical •OOH – another one. The work is aimed at the investigation of spa- tial and electronic structure of hydroperoxide anion.
