  • Exploring the Limit of Accuracy of the Global Hybrid Meta Density Functional for Main-Group Thermochemistry, Kinetics, and Noncovalent Interactions
    J. Chem. Theory Comput. XXXX, xxx, 000 A Exploring the Limit of Accuracy of the Global Hybrid Meta Density Functional for Main-Group Thermochemistry, Kinetics, and Noncovalent Interactions Yan Zhao and Donald G. Truhlar* Department of Chemistry and Supercomputing Institute, UniVersity of Minnesota, 207 Pleasant Street S.E., Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455-0431 Received June 25, 2008 Abstract: The hybrid meta density functionals M05-2X and M06-2X have been shown to provide broad accuracy for main group chemistry. In the present article we make the functional form more flexible and improve the self-interaction term in the correlation functional to improve its self-consistent-field convergence. We also explore the constraint of enforcing the exact forms of the exchange and correlation functionals through second order (SO) in the reduced density gradient. This yields two new functionals called M08-HX and M08-SO, with different exact constraints. The new functionals are optimized against 267 diverse main-group energetic data consisting of atomization energies, ionization potentials, electron affinities, proton affinities, dissociation energies, isomerization energies, barrier heights, noncovalent complexation energies, and atomic energies. Then the M08-HX, M08-SO, M05-2X, and M06-2X functionals and the popular B3LYP functional are tested against 250 data that were not part of the original training data for any of the functionals, in particular 164 main-group energetic data in 7 databases, 39 bond lengths, 38 vibrational frequencies, and 9 multiplicity-changing electronic transition energies. These tests include a variety of new challenges for complex systems, including large-molecule atomization energies, organic isomerization energies, interaction energies in uracil trimers, and bond distances in crowded molecules (in particular, cyclophanes).

  • Electronic Supporting Information a New Class of Soluble and Stable Transition-Metal-Substituted Polyoxoniobates: [Cr2(OH)4Nb10o
    Electronic Supplementary Material (ESI) for Dalton Transactions This journal is © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2012 Electronic Supporting Information A New Class of Soluble and Stable Transition-Metal-Substituted Polyoxoniobates: [Cr2(OH)4Nb10O30]8-. Jung-Ho Son, C. André Ohlin and William H. Casey* A) Computational Results The two most interesting aspects of this new polyoxoanion is the inclusion of a more redox active metal and the optical activity in the visible region. For these reasons we in particular wanted to explore whether it was possible to readily and routinely predict the location of the absorbance bands of this type of compound. Also, owing to the difficulty in isolating the oxidised and reduced forms of the central polyanion dichromate species, we employed computations at the density functional theory (DFT) level to get a better idea of the potential characteristics of these forms. Structures were optimised for anti-parallel and parallel electronic spin alignments, and for both high and low spin cases where relevant. Intermediate spin configurations were 8- II III also tested for [Cr2(OH)4Nb10O30] . As expected, the high spin form of the Cr Cr complex was favoured (Table S1, below). DFT overestimates the bond lengths in general, but gives a good picture of the general distortion of the octahedral chromium unit, and in agreement with the crystal structure predicts that the shortest bond is the Cr-µ2-O bond trans from the central µ6- oxygen in the Lindqvist unit, and that the (Nb-)µ2-O-Cr-µ4-O(-Nb,Nb,Cr) angle is smaller by ca 5˚ from the ideal 180˚.

  • Performance of DFT Procedures for the Calculation of Proton-Exchange
    Article pubs.acs.org/JCTC Performance of Density Functional Theory Procedures for the Calculation of Proton-Exchange Barriers: Unusual Behavior of M06- Type Functionals Bun Chan,*,†,‡ Andrew T. B. Gilbert,¶ Peter M. W. Gill,*,¶ and Leo Radom*,†,‡ † School of Chemistry, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia ‡ ¶ ARC Centre of Excellence for Free Radical Chemistry and Biotechnology and Research School of Chemistry, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 0200, Australia *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: We have examined the performance of a variety of density functional theory procedures for the calculation of complexation energies and proton-exchange barriers, with a focus on the Minnesota-class of functionals that are generally highly robust and generally show good accuracy. A curious observation is that M05-type and M06-type methods show an atypical decrease in calculated barriers with increasing proportion of Hartree−Fock exchange. To obtain a clearer picture of the performance of the underlying components of M05-type and M06-type functionals, we have investigated the combination of MPW-type and PBE-type exchange and B95-type and PBE-type correlation procedures. We find that, for the extensive E3 test set, the general performance of the various hybrid-DFT procedures improves in the following order: PBE1-B95 → PBE1-PBE → MPW1-PBE → PW6-B95. As M05-type and M06-type procedures are related to PBE1-B95, it would be of interest to formulate and examine the general performance of an alternative Minnesota DFT method related to PW6-B95. 1. INTRODUCTION protocol.13,14 In a recent study,15 however, it was shown that, Density functional theory (DFT) procedures1 are undeniably for complexation energies of water, ammonia and hydrogen the workhorse for many computational chemists.

  • Computer-Assisted Catalyst Development Via Automated Modelling of Conformationally Complex Molecules
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Computer‑assisted catalyst development via automated modelling of conformationally complex molecules: application to diphosphinoamine ligands Sibo Lin1*, Jenna C. Fromer2, Yagnaseni Ghosh1, Brian Hanna1, Mohamed Elanany3 & Wei Xu4 Simulation of conformationally complicated molecules requires multiple levels of theory to obtain accurate thermodynamics, requiring signifcant researcher time to implement. We automate this workfow using all open‑source code (XTBDFT) and apply it toward a practical challenge: diphosphinoamine (PNP) ligands used for ethylene tetramerization catalysis may isomerize (with deleterious efects) to iminobisphosphines (PPNs), and a computational method to evaluate PNP ligand candidates would save signifcant experimental efort. We use XTBDFT to calculate the thermodynamic stability of a wide range of conformationally complex PNP ligands against isomeriation to PPN (ΔGPPN), and establish a strong correlation between ΔGPPN and catalyst performance. Finally, we apply our method to screen novel PNP candidates, saving signifcant time by ruling out candidates with non‑trivial synthetic routes and poor expected catalytic performance. Quantum mechanical methods with high energy accuracy, such as density functional theory (DFT), can opti- mize molecular input structures to a nearby local minimum, but calculating accurate reaction thermodynamics requires fnding global minimum energy structures1,2. For simple molecules, expert intuition can identify a few minima to focus study on, but an alternative approach must be considered for more complex molecules or to eventually fulfl the dream of autonomous catalyst design 3,4: the potential energy surface must be frst surveyed with a computationally efcient method; then minima from this survey must be refned using slower, more accurate methods; fnally, for molecules possessing low-frequency vibrational modes, those modes need to be treated appropriately to obtain accurate thermodynamic energies 5–7.
