EDA with Multiwfn

jorgescf · 2024-02-05 20:35:14

I would like to perform an EDA for a cycloaddition reaction. Can anyone help me with instructions to perform it with Multiwfn? Thanks in advance.

Multiwfn supports different forms of energy decomposition analysis, see Section 3.24 of latest version of Multiwfn for introductions, there are also examples in the manual.

If you need to obtain physical components of interaction energy between fragments at quantum chemistry level, the only method supported by Multiwfn is the sobEDA and sobEDAw recently proposed by me, note that this function not only needs Multiwfn but also requires Linux version of Gaussian 16. Please check original paper:

Tian Lu and Qinxue Chen, Simple, Efficient, and Universal Energy Decomposition Analysis Method Based on Dispersion-Corrected Density Functional Theory, J. Phys. Chem. A, 127, 7023−7035 (2023)
(There is a very detailed tutorial at http://sobereva.com/soft/sobEDA_tutorial.zip)

I am trying sobEDA for an extensive system. But after 7 cycles, showing some error for the fragment and exiting.

"Error encountered; please check corresponding output file! Now script exits"

However, I could not find the error in the output file. Please help.

Running on HPC system.

I don't know details of your HPC environment. Please carefully check all information printed by the sobEDA.sh shell script, everything is printed in detail for debugging, including which command is running, and file name of Gaussian input/output file.

The orbital contributions obtained from the EDA analysis and the NOCV method differ. There is some difference. How to report this in paper. In general orbital contribution coming from NOCV is 6-8 kcal/mol higher than the EDA analysis.

patrashantigopal · 2024-09-17 11:41:28

For NOCV, I am taking the fragments and final files obtained from the sobEDA calculations.

The sum of pair energies is not equal to the orbital component given by sobEDA, see red text in Section 3.26.2 of Multiwfn manual for the reason. The value given by sobEDA is exact. Anyway, the ETS-NOCV data is still very useful in understand relative importance of different types of interfragment interactions, and you may report percentage data in your paper.

patrashantigopal · 2024-09-18 03:40:40

Thanks for your reply. So, shall I mention this aspect in the paper? If the reviewer asks specific questions on why these are not the same, then what should be the possible answer?

You can mention my above comment and the relevant information in Multiwfn manual. Alternatively, you can only report percentage contribution of different NOCV pairs
