I have a system that includes Mn and oxygens and among these oxygens there are 2 oxygen will form an O2 molecule by nucleophilic/ electrophilic attack. I calculated the dual descriptor for all of them. Some of them are nucleophiles and some are electrophile. How to decide which oxygen will participate in the reaction? May I compare to a different molecule in which I know the value of the dual descriptor of reactive oxygens?
(Of course I could compare them to each other but the problem is that I have more than one model and in one model there is a more reactive oxygen that the other one but the 2 models have a very similar energies).
Thank you
Thanks.
I generated the N.wfn, N+1.wfn and N-1.wfn files using Gaussian09. I used the B97D functional and 6-31g(d) basis sets for all atoms except Mn and Ca, I used LANDL, which is similar but with effective core potential.
Dear All, 
I'm trying to calculate all CDFT indices for my system (which is a complex metal cluster of 4 Mn and a calcium ion connected through bridging oxygens). However, I'm getting a lot of NAN and infinity values. For example:
Condensed local softnesses (Hartree*e) and relative electrophilicity/nucleophilicity (dimensionless)
     Atom         s-          s+          s0        s+/s-       s-/s+
     1(C )    Infinity    Infinity    Infinity         NaN         NaN
and
 E(N):        0.000000 Hartree
 E(N+1):      0.000000 Hartree
 E(N-1):      0.000000 Hartree
 E_HOMO(N):     -0.171208 Hartree,   -4.6588 eV
 E_HOMO(N+1):   -0.122035 Hartree,   -3.3207 eV
 E_HOMO(N-1):   -0.176132 Hartree,   -4.7928 eV
 Vertical IP:    0.000000 Hartree,    0.0000 eV
 Vertical EA:    0.000000 Hartree,    0.0000 eV
 Mulliken electronegativity:     0.000000 Hartree,    0.0000 eV
 Chemical potential:             0.000000 Hartree,    0.0000 eV
 Hardness (=fundamental gap):    0.000000 Hartree,    0.0000 eV
 Softness:    Infinity Hartree^-1,  Infinity eV^-1
 Electrophilicity index:         NaN Hartree,       NaN eV
 Nucleophilicity index:     0.163990 Hartree,    4.4624 eV
Why is that? what did I do wrong?
Thank you
Thank you very much. What does it mean chemically when you say "80% is excessively large"? How do I evaluate if my choice for the threshold?
Dear All,
I have a question about the calculation of the oxidation states using LOBA. I get a different answer if I change the threshold. I have a Mn cluster of 4 Mn in different oxidation states. When I use 50% for the threshold I get 3 Mn in the Mn(III) states and 1 in the Mn(IV). However, if I make the threshold 80% then I get 3 Mn (IV) and one Mn(III). I don't know how to judge each of these calculation.
Please let me know what do you think?
Thank you
