Cluster Methods

Geometries, electron affinities (EA) and singlet-triplet (S-T) splittings of XH2/XH2- molecules (X = B, Al, Ga) are calculated by coupled-cluster methods, using the sequence of basis sets. The EA values and S-T splittings for aluminium and gallium dihydrides are an order of magnitude larger (in absolute values) than those for boron. For boron and aluminium dihydrides, two types of extrapolations towards complete basis set limit are applied, leading to EA = 0.24 eV, ST = -0.01 eV (BH2), and EA = 1.10 eV, ST = -0.62 eV. The best calculated values for gallium dihydrides are EA = 1.13 eV and ST = -0.74 eV. All three S-T splittings favour singlet as the ground state, although the S-T splittings of BH2- is exceptionally small. In addition, vertical electron affinities and vertical electron detachments are reported for these molecules.

A full three-dimensional global potential energy surface is reported for the ground state of CH2+ by fitting accurate multireference configuration interaction energies calculated using aug-cc-pVQZ and aug-cc-pV5Z basis sets with extrapolation of the electron correlation energy to the complete basis set limit.

The accurate adiabatic electron affinities (EA) of the BN, NO and NF molecules have been determined using the coupled cluster approach and multireference configuration interaction methods. By combining large doubly augmented correlation-consistent basis sets (through the sextuple zeta) and complete basis set extrapolations with corrections for core-valence correlation and relativistic effects, we find that the RCCSD(T) method gives EA(BN) = 3.153 eV in very close agreement with experiment and predicts EA(NF) = 0.247 eV. The RCCSD(T) and UCCSD(T) EA(NO) results, 0.008 and 0.031 eV, bracket the experimental value. For both the neutral and anionic ground state species the usual spectroscopic constants were derived.

Atomic Natural Orbitals

AbstractRelativistic Atomic Natural Orbitals (ANO-RCC) are extrapolated to the complete basis set limit. ANO-RCC-VXZP (X = D, T, Q) basis sets were extrapolated using standard extrapolation techniques. Five noncovalent complexes, characterized by hydrogen, dispersion and halogen interactions, were chosen. Accurate description of the studied complexes is allowed only after the inclusion of electron correlation and large basis sets which have to include polarization and diffuse functions. Results are in quantitative agreement with the benchmark data obtained by standard aug-cc-pVXZ-DK (X = D, T, Q) basis sets considering chemical accuracy of ±1 kcal/mol.
