Published: December 2004

The convergence behavior of connected triples correlation energy in CCSD(T) and CC3 calculations with (aug-)cc-pVXZ basis sets has been accurately described in terms of a power law of the type E(X)=E(infinity)+AX(-4). Calculations ranging from double-Z through septuple-Z attest the validity of this X(-4) convergence model. Extrapolations generated from (X-1,X)-Z calculations yield energies of nearly (X+1)-Z quality. Typically, the fraction of triples correlation energy recovered is 0.92+/-0.05 in (D,T) extrapolations; 0.98+/-0.01 in (T,Q) extrapolations; 1.0002+/-0.0012 in (Q,5) extrapolations; and 0.9995+/-0.0005 in (5,6) extrapolations.

Restoring rotational symmetry of multicomponent wavefunctions with nuclear orbitals.

Department of Physics, AlbaNova University Center, Stockholm University, S-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden.

In this work, we present a non-orthogonal configuration interaction (NOCI) approach to address the rotational corrections in multicomponent quantum chemistry calculations where hydrogen nuclei and electrons are described with orbitals under Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) frameworks. The rotational corrections are required in systems such as diatomic (HX) and nonlinear triatomic molecules (HXY), where localized broken-symmetry nuclear orbitals have a lower energy than delocalized orbitals with the correct symmetry. By restoring rotational symmetry with the proposed NOCI approach, we demonstrate significant improvements in proton binding energy predictions at the HF level, with average rotational corrections of 0.

Chemical Bonding and Dynamic Structural Fluxionality of a Boron-Based BAl Cluster.

Molecules

December 2024

Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering, Lyuliang University, Lishi 033001, China.

We studied the boron-based composite cluster BAl doped with Al atoms. The global minimum structure of the BAl cluster is a three-layer structure, consisting of three parts: an Al unit, a B ring and an isolated Al atom. Charge calculations analysis shows that the cluster can be expressed as [Al][B][Al], has 6π/6σ double aromaticity and follows the (4+2) Hückel rule.

Article Synopsis
  • The study used a hybrid B3LYP version of Density Functional Theory to analyze the properties of mustard-type cancer drugs, melphalan and bendamustine, in water, focusing on their geometry, vibrational characteristics, and various electrical properties.
  • Findings showed that these drugs have low ionization energies, indicating significant antioxidant potential, with melphalan's zwitterionic form being more stable in water compared to bendamustine's.
  • Advanced calculations using the DLPNO-CCSD(T) method confirmed that the canonical form of bendamustine is more stable in water than its zwitterionic counterpart, along with noting particularly high dipole moments for some structures.
