Ozone–water clusters are nonempirically modeled in the complete active space self-consistent field approximation (CASSCF) with the energetic estimates obtained at the multiconfiguration quasidegenerate perturbation theory level (MCQDPT) with 6−31++G** basis set. Coordination of a neutral ozone molecule to small water clusters is either surface or interior, with the binding energy of the order of a weak hydrogen bond. Upon localization of an excess electron, the hydration of ozone becomes strong. The adiabatic affinities of water–ozone clusters and the energies of electron detachment from their anions, depending on the number of water molecules, estimate the electron hydration and vertical electron detachment thresholds of water or ice that superficially coordinates minor amounts of ozone.
