Electrostatically embedded many-body method for dipole moments, partial atomic charges, and charge transfer.

چکیده
Fragment methods have been widely studied for computing energies and forces, but less attention has been paid to nonenergetic properties. Here we extend the electrostatically embedded many-body (EE-MB) method to the calculation of cluster dipole moments, dipole moments of molecules in clusters, partial atomic charges, and charge transfer, and we test and validate the method by comparing to results calculated for the entire system without fragmentation. We also compare to calculations carried out by the conventional many-body (MB) method without electrostatic embedding. Systems considered are NH(3)(H(2)O)(11), (NH(3))(2)(H(2)O)(14), [Cl(H(2)O)(6)](-), (HF)(4), (HF)(5), (HF)(2)H(2)O, (HF)(3)H(2)O, and (HF)(3)(H(2)O)(2). With electrostatic embedding, we find that even at the pairwise additive level a quantitatively accurate description of a system's dipole moment and partial charge distribution and a qualitatively accurate description of the amount of intermolecular charge transfer can often be obtained.

متن کاملHPAM: Hirshfeld partitioned atomic multipoles
An implementation of the Hirshfeld (HD) and Hirshfeld-Iterated (HD-I) atomic charge density partitioning schemes is described. Atomic charges and atomic multipoles are calculated from the HD and HD-I atomic charge densities for arbitrary atomic multipole rank l(max) on molecules of arbitrary shape and size. The HD and HD-I atomic charges/multipoles are tested by comparing molecular multipole mo...

The effective use of partial atomic charge models is essential for such purposes in molecular computations as a simplified representation of global charge distribution in a molecule and predicting its conformational behavior. In this work, ten of the most popular models of partial atomic charge are taken into consideration, and these models operate on the molecular wave functions/electron densi...
متن کاملAccurate Partial Atomic Charges for High-Energy Molecules Using Class IV Charge Models with the MIDI! Basis Set
We have recently developed a new class IV charge model for calculating partial atomic charges in molecules. The new model, called Charge Model 3 (CM3), was parameterized for calculations on molecules containing H, Li, C, N, O, F, Si, S, P, Cl, and Br by Hartree-Fock theory and by hybrid density functional theory (HDFT) based on the modified Perdew-Wang density functional with several basis sets...
متن کاملA charge analysis derived from an atomic multipole expansion
A new charge analysis is presented that gives an accurate description of the electrostatic potential from the charge distribution in molecules. This is achieved in three steps: first, the total density is written as a sum of atomic densities; next, from these atomic densities a set of atomic multipoles is defined; finally, these atomic multipoles are reconstructed exactly by distributing charge...
