Ab initio calculations have been performed to study the molecular structures and vibrational levels of the four low-lying
ionic states (1, 22Π, and 1, 22Σ+) of carbonyl sulfide. The global regions of the potential-energy surfaces have been obtained by multireference single and
double excitation configuration interaction calculations. Vibrational calculations using explicit vibrational Hamiltonians
have been used for vibrational analysis. The equilibrium molecular structures and a vibrational analysis of the four ionic
states are presented. The theoretical ionization intensity curves including the vibrational structures of the ionic states
are also presented and are compared with the photoelectron spectrum.

The convergence of chemisorption energy for hydrogen and oxygen on gold clusters is studied. Two theoretical approaches have
been employed; wavefunction methods at the self-consistent-field second–order M?ller–Plesset level and density functional
theory and the two methods are compared. Relativistic effective core potentials exploited in the former approach were developed
in this work.

An overlap criterion is defined that connects the identification of core orbitals in a molecular system, which can be problematic,
to that in isolated atoms, which is well defined. This approach has been tested on a variety of troublesome systems that have
been identified in the literature, including molecules containing third-row main-group elements, and is shown to remove errors
of up to 100 kcal/mol arising from an inconsistent treatment of core orbitals at different locations on a potential-energy
surface. For some systems and choices of core orbitals, errors as large as 19 kcal/mol can be introduced even when consistent
sets of orbitals are frozen, and the new method is shown to identify these cases of substantial core–valence mixing. Finally,
even when there is limited core–valence mixing, the frozen-core approximation can introduce errors of more than 5 kcal/mol,
which is much larger than the presumed accuracy of models such as G2 and CBS-QB3. The source of these errors includes interatomic
core–core and core–valence dispersion forces.

The mathematical structure of the reduced-gradient-following (RGF) path introduced by Quapp et al. (1988 J. Comput. Chem. 19:1087) is reviewed and analyzed. We report two new algorithms to evaluate the RGF path. The RGF path is also compared mathematically
and computationally with the gradient extremals path. An example of the evaluation of the RGF path is also reported.

Experimental enthalpies of formation have been approximated using single-point Hartree–Fock (HF)–self-consistent-field (SCF)
total energies plus the rapid estimation of basis set error and correlation energy from partial charges (REBECEP) energy corrections.
The energy corrections are calculated from the HF–SCF partial atomic charges and optimized atomic energy parameters. The performance
of the method was tested on 51 closed-shell neutral molecules (50 molecules from the G3/99 thermochemistry database plus urea,
composed of H, C, N, O, and F atoms). The predictive force of the method is demonstrated, because these larger molecules were
not used for the optimization of the atomic parameters. We used the earlier RECEP-3 [HF/6-311+G(2d,p)] and REBECEP [HF/6-31G(d)]
atomic parameter sets obtained from the G2/97 thermochemistry database (containing small molecules) together with natural
population analysis and Mulliken partial charges. The best results were obtained using the natural population analysis charges,
although the Mulliken charges also provide useful results. The root-mean-square deviations from the experimental enthalpies
of formation for the selected 51 molecules are 1.15, 3.96, and 2.92 kcal/mol for Gaussian-3, B3LYP/6-11+G(3df,2p), and REBECEP
(natural population analysis) enthalpies of formation, respectively (the corresponding average absolute deviations are 0.94,
7.09, and 2.27 kcal/mol, respectively). The REBECEP method performs considerably better for the 51 test molecules with a moderate
6-31G(d) basis set than the B3LYP method with a large 6-311+G(3df,2p) basis set.

The hydrogen-ion molecule has been used as a test system for the application of the Schr?dinger–Riccati formulation to molecular
calculations. Some of the points discussed are the characteristics (quasiconstancy of the local energies, size, number of
points) of the sampling region to be chosen, the dependence on the starting function, the precision of the calculations, and
the excellent behaviour of the predicted function (by comparison to an accurate function).

A complete set of fully-relativistic benchmark results for the bond lengths and vibrational frequencies of uranyl at various
levels of correlation treatment are presented. It is shown that the relativistic and correlation effects are of the same magnitude
and should be treated on an equal footing. Results of uranyl calculations using various relativistic effective core potentials
(RECP) are presented. Appropriate choices for RECPs for use in density functional theory (DFT) calculations in the local density
approximation (LDA) and with the gradient-corrected B3LYP exchange-correlation functional are discussed. The conclusion is
reached that small-core RECPs need to be used and that the best results as compared to the benchmark values are obtained by
using a DFT functional that includes some fraction of Hartree-Fock Exchange.

Methods are described to incorporate solvent reaction field effects into solute electronic structure calculations. Included
are several old and new approaches based on approximate solutions of Poisson's equation through boundary element methods,
wherein the solutions are represented in terms of certain apparent surface charge or apparent surface dipole distributions.
Practical algorithms to set up and solve the requisite equations are described and implemented in a new general reaction field
computer program. Illustrative computational results are presented to show the performance of the program.

Alternative ways are examined for representing a reaction field to treat the important effects of long-range electrostatic
interaction with a solvent in electronic structure calculations on the properties of a solute. Several extant boundary element
methods for approximate representation of the solvent reaction field in terms of surface charge distributions are considered,
and analogous new methods for approximate representation in terms of surface dipole distributions are introduced. Illustrative
computational results are presented on representative small neutral and ionic solutes to evaluate the relative accuracy of
various methods.

Kinetic isotope effects, KIEs, for hydrogen abstraction from C2H6 and C2D6 by chlorine atom have been studied by the dual-level direct dynamics approach. A low-level potential energy surface is obtained
with the MNDO-SRP method. High-level structural properties of the reactants, transition state, and products were obtained
at the MP2 level with the cc-pVDZ, aug-cc-pVDZ, and the cc-pVTZ basis sets. Using the variational transition state theory
with microcanonical optimized multidimensional tunneling, the values of deuterium KIE, at 300 K, range from 2.28 to 3.27,
in good agreement with the experimental values (2.69–5.88).

This article presents an overview of recent advances in the study of electron pairing through the use of localization and
delocalization indices obtained from double integration over atomic basins of the exchange–correlation density in the framework
of the atoms-in-molecules theory. These localization and delocalization indices describe the intra- and interatomic distribution
of the electron pairs in a molecule. The main results of the application of these second-order indices to the analysis of
molecular structure and chemical reactivity are briefly reviewed. It is shown that localization and delocalization indices
represent a powerful tool to describe the electron-pair structure of molecules, which, in turn, provides deeper insight into
relevant chemical phenomena such as electron correlation effects and the formation of localized α, β electron pairs.

We propose a methodology to locate stationary points on a quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical potential-energy surface.
This algorithm is based on a suitable approximation of an initial full Hessian matrix, either a modified Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarg–Shanno
or a Powell update formula for the location of, respectively, a minimum or a transition state, and the so-called rational
function optimization. The latter avoids the Hessian matrix inversion required by a quasi-Newton–Raphson method. Some examples
are presented and analyzed.

The second-order correlation energy of M?ller–Plesset perturbation theory is computed for the neon atom using a wave function
that depends explicitly on the interelectronic coordinates (MP2-R12). The resolution-of-identity (RI) approximation, which
is invoked in the standard formulation of MP2-R12 theory, is largely avoided by rigorously computing the necessary three-electron
integrals. The basis-set limit for the second-order correlation energy is reached to within 0.1 mE
h. A comparison with the conventional RI-based MP2-R12 method shows that only three-electron integrals over s and p orbitals need to be computed exactly, indicating that the RI approximation can be safely used for integrals involving orbitals
of higher angular momentum.

A local-orbital-based ab initio approach to calculate correlation effects on quasi-particle energies in insulating solids
is presented. The use of localized Wannier-type Hartree–Fock orbitals allows correlation effects to be efficiently assessed.
First a Green's function approach based on exact diagonalization is introduced and this is combined with an incremental scheme,
while subsequently different levels of perturbative approximations are derived from the general procedure. With these methods
the band structure of LiF is calculated and good agreement with experiment is found. By comparing the different approximations
proposed, including the exact diagonalization procedure, their relative quality is established.

Ab initio molecular electronic structure calculations are performed for H5
+ at the QCISD(T) level of theory, using a correlation-consistent quadruple-zeta basis set. Structures, vibrational frequencies
and thermochemical properties are evaluated for ten stationary points of the H5
+ hypersurface and are compared with previous calculations. The features of the H3
+…H2 interaction at intermediate and large intermolecular distances are also investigated. Furthermore, an analytical functional
form for the potential-energy surface of H5
+ is derived using a first-order diatomics-in-molecule perturbation theory approach. Its topology is found to be qualitatively
correct for the short-range interaction region.

Gaussian-3 ground-state total electronic energies have been approximated using single point 6-31G(d) basis set Harteee–Fock
self-consistent-field (HF-SCF) total energies and partial charges based on our earlier rapid estimation of correlation energy
from partial charges method. Sixty-five closed-shell neutral molecules (composed of H, C, N, O, and F atoms) of the G2/97
thermochemistry database were selected for the present study. The main feature in this work is that the␣basis set error has
been treated by the least squares fit of rapid estimation of basis set error and correlation energy from partial charges (REBECEP)
atomic parameters. With these parameters a rather accurate closed-shell ground-state electronic total energy can be obtained
from a small basis set HF-SCF calculation in the vicinity of stationary points. The average absolute deviation of the best
REBECEP enthalpies of formation from the experimental enthalpies of formation is 1.39 kcal/mol for the test set of 65 enthalpies
of neutral molecules.

For all isolated pentagon isomers of the fullerenes C60–C86 with nonzero HOMO–LUMO gap and for one nonclassical C72 isomer (C2
v
), endohedral chemical shifts have been computed at the GIAO-SCF/3-21G level using B3LYP/6-31G* optimized structures. The
experimental 3He NMR signals are reproduced reasonably well in cases where assignments are unambiguous (e.g. C60, C70 and C76). On the basis of the calculated thermodynamic stability order and the comparison between the computed and experimental 3He chemical shifts, the assignments of the observed 3He NMR spectra are discussed for all higher fullerenes, and new assignments are proposed for one C82 and one C86 isomer (C82:3 and C86:17). The calculated helium chemical shifts also suggest the reassignment of the δ(3He) resonances of two C78 isomers.

Molecular mechanics minimizations based on the CVFF force field and molecular dynamics simulation for a time of 2.5 ns were
performed to examine the conformational behaviour and the molecular motion of acetylcholine in vacuo and in aqueous solution.
Five low-lying conformations, namely the TT, TG, GG, G*G and GT, were obtained from molecular mechanics computations with
the GT structure as the absolute minimum. Molecular dynamics trajectories in vacuo and in water show that only four (GT, GG,
G*G and TG) and three (TG, TT and GT) conformations are present in the simulation time, respectively. Density functional B3LYP
and second-order M?ller–Plesset (MP2) methods were then used to study all the five lowest-lying conformers of acetylcholine
neurotransmitter in vacuo and in water by the polarizable continuum model approach. The B3LYP and MP2 computations show that
in the gas phase all minima lie in a narrow range of energy with the G*G conformer as the most stable one. The relative minima
GG, GT, TG and TT are located at 1.1 (3.3), 1.8 (4.2), 2.1 (4.5) and 4.3 (7.3) kcal/mol above the absolute one at the B3LYP
(MP2) level. The preferred conformation in water is the TG. Solvation reduces the relative energy differences between the
five minima in both computations.

Low-spin/high-spin energy splittings for Fe(II) transition-metal complexes – particularly in weak ligand fields – cannot
be well described by density functional methods. Different density functionals yield results which differ by up to 1 eV in
transition-metal complexes with sulfur-rich first coordination spheres. We attribute this failure to the fact that the high-spin
state is systematically favoured in Hartree–Fock-type theories, because Fermi correlation is included in the exact exchange,
while Coulomb correlation is not. We thus expect that the admixture of exact exchange to a given density functional will heavily
influence the energy splitting between states of different multiplicity. We demonstrate that the energy splitting depends
linearly on the coefficient of exact exchange admixture. This remarkable result is found for all the Fe(II)–S complexes studied.
From this observation we conclude in connection with experimental results that Becke's 20% admixture should be reduced to
about 15% if meaningful energetics are sought for transition-metal compounds. We rationalize that this reduction by 5% will
not affect the quality of the hybrid functional since we arrive at a slightly modified functional, which lies between the
pure density functional and the hybrid density functional, which both give good results for “standard” systems.

Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for 2-ethoxyethanol (C2E1) in isothermal-isobaric ensemble (NPT) at different temperatures and 1 atm pressure with a continuum configurational biased
procedure in water and chloroform media. Hydrogen bond bridges were formed between adjacent oxygen atoms in C2E1 (CH3CH2OCH2CH2OH) through water molecules. We also found that the stable conformers of C2E1 in water and CHCl3 are different and the effect of temperature on solute-solvent interaction energies is considerable. The self-association
of C2E1 in aqueous and nonaqueous media has been studied by statistical perturbation theory, and the relative free energy has been
obtained at different reaction coordinates by double-wide sampling method. Two minima were found in water solvent in the potential
of mean force (PMF), corresponding to the contact and solvent-separated pairs, but only one minimum was found in CHCl3 solvent corresponding to a contact pair complex.
