Among computational chemistry methods, quantum mechanics calculates geometries and electronic structures with accuracy especially for systems with electronic delocalization. The use of a multiconfigurational approach is able to treat highly degenerated states such as those occurring at the transition state in some chemical reactions. Moreover, an accurate description of potential energy surfaces can be obtained with the evaluation of the dynamic electron correlation effects by this approach. Molecular properties range from simple dipole moments, vibrational frequencies or IR intensities to frequency dependent hyperpolarizabilities. Quantum chemical calculations are thus an attractive source of molecular descriptors which can be used in QSAR/QSPR studies and which can express all electronic and geometric properties of molecules. A survey and a comparison of the performance of free e-resources for semi-empirical and ab initio calculations is provided.

Variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) have shown strong evidence to gain provable computational advantages in diverse fields such as finance, machine learning, and chemistry. However, the heuristic ansatz exploited in modern VQAs is incapable of balancing the trade-off between expressivity and trainability, which may lead to degraded performance when executed on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) machines. To address this issue, here, we demonstrate the first proof-of-principle experiment of applying an efficient automatic ansatz design technique, i.

Article Synopsis
- Oxidized/reduced carbon dots (CDs) made from banana peels show different fluorescence behaviors based on their treatment and composition.
- The study synthesizes these carbon dots by doping them with elements like fluorine, boron, and nitrogen, and then reduces them, enhancing their fluorescence performance.
- The research highlights how the sensing abilities of these carbon dots change after reduction, with the original form selectively detecting cobalt and the reduced form able to sense both cobalt and mercury, leading to potential new commercial applications.

Bonding energies play an essential role in describing the relative stability of molecules in chemical space. Therefore, methods employed to search chemical space need to capture the bonding behavior for a wide range of molecules, including radicals. In this work, we investigate the ability of quantum alchemy to capture the bonding behavior of hypothetical chemical compounds, specifically diatomic molecules involving hydrogen with various electronic structures.
