Tognetti V, Joubert L. Exchange-correlation effects in interatomic energies for pure density functionals and their application to the molecular energy prediction. J Comput Chem 2024; 45:2270-2283. [PMID: 38847367 DOI: 10.1002/jcc.27431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024]
Abstract
In this proof-of-concept paper, we show how exchange-correlation effects can be simply recovered for interatomic energies within the interacting quantum atoms decomposition when local, gradient generalized, or meta-gradient generalized approximations are used in density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We also demonstrate how inhomogeneity and non-local effects can be introduced even from a pure local scheme, without resorting to any orbital information. Finally, we provide numerical evidence on a database of selected energetic molecules that this decomposition scheme can be efficiently used to build accurate models for the prediction of molecular energies from an initial "cheap" DFT calculation.

Abstract
Halogen-halogen nonbonded interactions were studied for methyl halides and phenyl halides using both B3LYP and MP2 along with 6-311+G* and aug-cc-pVTZ. With the methyl halides, the linear approach was found to lead to little stabilization, whereas the "90°" approach gave 1-2 kcal/mol. This modest stabilization was due to long-range electron correlation effects. The lowest-energy arrangement had the molecules side-by-side, with the major stabilization being derived from halogen-hydrogen interactions. The results for methyl bromide were quite similar. Chlorobenzene dimer with the 90° orientation gave a small stabilization energy, but the best arrangement had the two benzene rings oriented over each other. The meta orientation of the chlorines had a lower energy than ortho or para. The dimerization energy was larger than that for two benzene rings sitting directly above each other, suggesting that whereas Cl···Cl interaction is not very important, the effect of the halogen on the electron distribution does have an effect. This suggests that much of the crystallographic results for these compounds may not be due to halogen-halogen interactions but rather the interaction between the substituted benzene rings along with crystal forces.

Abstract
36 halogen-bonded complexes YXARm (X: F, Cl, Br; Y: donor group; ARm acceptor group) have been investigated at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory. Binding energies, geometries, NBO charges, charge transfer, dipole moments, electrostatic potential, electron and energy density distributions, difference density distributions, vibrational frequencies, local stretching and bending force constants, and relative bond strength orders n have been calculated and used to order the halogen bonds according to their intrinsic strength. Halogen bonding is found to arise from electrostatic and strong covalent contributions. It can be strengthened by H-bonding or lone pair delocalization. The covalent character of a halogen bond increases in the way 3c-4e (three-center-four-electron) bonding becomes possible. One can characterize halogen bonds by their percentage of 3c-4e bonding. FCl-phosphine complexes can form relatively strong halogen bonds provided electronegative substituents increase the covalent contributions in form of 3c-4e halogen bonding. Binding energies between 1 and 45 kcal mol-1 are calculated, which reflects the large variety in halogen bonding.

Abstract
A total of 202 halogen-bonded complexes have been studied using a dual-level approach: ωB97XD/aug-cc-pVTZ was used to determine geometries, natural bond order charges, charge transfer, dipole moments, electron and energy density distributions, vibrational frequencies, local stretching force constants, and relative bond strength orders n. The accuracy of these calculations was checked for a subset of complexes at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory. Apart from this, all binding energies were verified at the CCSD(T) level. A total of 10 different electronic effects have been identified that contribute to halogen bonding and explain the variation in its intrinsic strength. Strong halogen bonds are found for systems with three-center-four-electron (3c-4e) bonding such as chlorine donors in interaction with substituted phosphines. If halogen bonding is supported by hydrogen bonding, genuine 3c-4e bonding can be realized. Perfluorinated diiodobenzenes form relatively strong halogen bonds with alkylamines as they gain stability due to increased electrostatic interactions.

Abstract
Halogen bonding, a noncovalent interaction between a halogen atom and a nucleophilic site, is receiving a growing attention in the chemical community stimulating a large number of theoretical investigations. The density functional theory (DFT) approach revealed to be one of the most suitable methods owing to its accuracy and low computational cost. We report here a detailed analysis of the performance of an extensive set of DFT functionals in reproducing accurate binding energies and topological properties for the halogen-bonding interaction of either NCX or PhX molecules (X = F, Cl, Br, I) with the aromatic system of benzene in the T-shaped configuration. It was found that the better performance for both sets of properties is provided by a small subset of functionals able to take into account, implicitly or explicitly (by inclusion of an additive pairwise potential), the dispersion contribution, that is, ωB97X, M06-2X, M11, mPW2PLYP-D, and B2PLYP-D3.
