Semiempirical quantum-chemical methods Walter Thiel Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung Kaiser-Wilhelm-Platz 1, 45470 Mülheim, Germany [email protected] Abstract The semiempirical methods of quantum chemistry are reviewed, with emphasis on established NDDO-based methods (MNDO, AM1, PM3) and on the more recent orthogonalization-corrected methods (OM1, OM2, OM3). After a brief historical overview, the methodology is presented in non- technical terms, covering the underlying concepts, parameterization strategies, and computational aspects, as well as linear scaling and hybrid approaches. The application section addresses selected recent benchmarks and surveys ground-state and excited-state studies, including recent OM2- based excited-state dynamics investigations. Introduction Quantum mechanics provides the conceptual framework for understanding chemistry and the theoretical foundation for computational methods that model the electronic structure of chemical compounds. There are three types of such approaches: Quantum-chemical ab initio methods provide a convergent path to the exact solution of the Schrödinger equation and can therefore give “the right answer for the right reason”, but they are costly and thus restricted to relatively small molecules (at least in the case of the highly accurate correlated approaches). Density functional theory (DFT) has become the workhorse of computational chemistry because of its favourable price/performance ratio, allowing for fairly accurate calculations on medium-size molecules, but there is no systematic path of improvement in spite of the first-principles character of DFT.

    1 Annual Report: CY2018 ChemPubSoc Europe Growth, change, awards, and sponsorship More scientists, more publications, more competition. As in the past, growth continued unabated worldwide in 2018 and is also reflected in the performance metrics of the ChemPubSoc Europe / Wiley-VCH publishing program, which now consists of 16 titles. The most recent product, ChemSystemsChem, was announced in Fall 2018. In 2018, the journals that are co-owned by ChemPubSoc Europe societies published nearly 9,000 articles (excluding contributions to the online publication ChemViews Magazine). Compared to the previous year, manuscript submissions grew by 12%, and the number of published articles rose by approximately 5%. A record number of full-text downloads, >8.9 million, was witnessed for the ChemPubSoc Europe journals, with increases in usage compared to the same time last year; notable among them ca. +20–30% for ChemCatChem, ChemElectroChem, ChemMedChem, and ChemPlusChem; and ca. +70% for ChemistrySelect and ChemPhotoChem. Approximately 3% of articles published in ChemPubSoc Europe's hybrid journals in 2018 were open access: ca. 10% at ChemBioChem and ca. 5% at ChemCatChem, Chemistry—A European Journal, ChemMedChem, and ChemPhysChem, respectively. ChemPubSoc Europe's gold open access journal, ChemistryOpen, experienced a ca. 47% growth in submissions compared to 2017. Generational change After the retirement of Peter Gölitz in November 2017, additional responsibility was taken on by Guido Herrmann (VP, Co-Managing Director Wiley-VCH, since April 1, 2017), Eva Wille (VP, Executive Director Wiley-VCH), Neville Compton (Editor-in-Chief of Angewandte Chemie and publisher for the GDCh journals), Haymo Ross (Editor-in-Chief of Chemistry—A European Journal and publisher of the ChemPubSoc Europe journals), Theresa Kueckmann (Editor-in-Chief of Chemistry—An Asian Journal and publisher for the Asian Chemical Editorial Society (ACES) journals), and Greta Heydenrych (development of new journals).
