Abstract: | Calculations for the complex of thymine and adenine are used to show that the supermolecule second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) approach for evaluating interaction energies fails in certain cases because of the behavior of one of its components: the uncoupled Hartree-Fock dispersion energy. A simple approach for correcting the MP2 supermolecule interaction energies is proposed. It focuses on correcting a relatively small difference between the MP2 and coupled cluster interaction energies, which is a very appealing feature of the new approach considering a benchmark role played by coupled cluster results. |
