Weekly Report (2015.7.6—2015.7.12) Jingjing Wu Results summary: This week I have collected the project of BN-Clar structure and then calculated the other project. Here I am going to summarize the project of halogen bond. Firstly, I have selected the substrate using different functional level M06-2X and B97-1. The results have been shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Explore the best substrate based on furan. Then fixed pyridine, all these structures are optimized at M06-2X level, cc-pVTZ basis set for C, H, O, S, N,P… expect for I atom, the aug-cc-pVTZ-pp basis set is used for I atom. Because the complexes can’t be optimized at M062X/aug-cc-pVTZ level sussfully. These calculated zero-point-energy and Gibbs free energy are summarized in Table 1. Table 1. All these geometries are calculated at M06-2X/cc-pVTZ level.

Their connection between NICS(1)zz and relative Gibbs free enegy. As the Gibbs free energy values are not negative in some cases. And according to others report, the weak interaction of halogen or hydrogen bond should have a correction for the inherent BSSE (basis-set superposition error) using the counterpoise method. Therefore, the next calculations about halogen bond all using BSSE energy. In addition, the B971 function has been used1 and the diffuse basis set 6-31+G(d,p) could be used in these systems. Hence, all the next calculated at B97-1/6-31+G(d,p) level, and the aug-cc-pVTZ-pp basis set is used for I atom. (1) Fixed the substrate pyridine at singlet and triplet state,respectively. Table 1.
