AbstractAn embedded molecular cluster model is used to study the electronic structure of cyclotrimethylene trinitramine(RDX) molecular crystal. In this model, a molecular cluster describing a local region of the crystal is treated in the Hartree-Fock approximation. The embedding lattice is represented by multipoles that are determined quantum-mechanically. Cluster-lattice orthogonality is achieved by transforming canonical orbitals to orbitals which are localized on individual molecular sites by means of a self-consistent localization potential. Results for the free molecule and the perfect crystal demonstrate the domination of three N-NO2 groups on intermolecular properties. For the defective crystal, results show a significant distortion in the electronic structure caused by local deformations in the lattice that may account for the formation of hot spots.
