The scaled hypersphere search method was applied to ab initio potential energy surfaces of the H2S.(H2O)n/SH-.H3O+.(H2O)n-1 system with n = 5-7. Local minima databases including 121, 326, and 553 structures for n = 5-7, respectively, were obtained based on calculations at the MP2/6-311++G(3df,2p)//B3LYP/6-31+G** level. In these small cluster sizes, the SH-.H3O+.(H2O)n-1 type is still unstable relative to the H2S.(H2O)n type, and the global minima for H2S.(H2O)n are very similar to those of pure water clusters of (H2O)n+1. Thermodynamic simulations based on the present databases showed a structure transition from the well-mixed (H2O)n+1-like global minimum at low temperatures to unmixed complexes between H2S and (H2O)n at high temperatures.
