DLPNO-CCSD(T) scaled methods for the accurate treatment of large supramolecular complexes
2017
In this work, we present scaled variants of the DLPNO-CCSD(T) method, dubbed as (LS)DLPNO-CCSD(T) and (NS)DLPNO-CCSD(T), to obtain accurate interaction energies in supramolecular complexes governed by noncovalent interactions. The novel scaled schemes are based on the linear combination of the DLPNO-CCSD(T) correlation energies calculated with the standard (LoosePNO and NormalPNO) and modified (Loose2PNO and Normal2PNO) DLPNO-CCSD(T) accuracy levels. The scaled DLPNO-CCSD(T) variants provide nearly TightPNO accuracy, which is essential for the quantification of weak noncovalent interactions, with a noticeable saving in computational cost. Importantly, the accuracy of the proposed schemes is…
Quantum-Chemical Insights into the Self-Assembly of Carbon-Based Supramolecular Complexes
2018
Understanding how molecular systems self-assemble to form well-organized superstructures governed by noncovalent interactions is essential in the field of supramolecular chemistry. In the nanoscience context, the self-assembly of different carbon-based nanoforms (fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and graphene) with, in general, electron-donor molecular systems, has received increasing attention as a means of generating potential candidates for technological applications. In these carbon-based systems, a deep characterization of the supramolecular organization is crucial to establish an intimate relation between supramolecular structure and functionality. Detailed structural information on the se…
