Assessment of the Performance of DFT and DFT-D Methods for Describing Distance Dependence of Hydrogen-Bonded Interactions
Abstract
Noncovalent interactions such as hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and π-π interactions play important roles influencing the structure, stability, and dynamic properties of biomolecules including DNA and RNA base pairs. In an effort to better understand the fundamental physics of hydrogen bonding (H-bonding), we investigate the distance dependence of interaction energies in the prototype bimolecular complexes of formic acid, formamide, and formamidine. Potential energy curves along the H-bonding dissociation coordinate are examined both by establishing reference CCSD(T) interaction energies extrapolated to the complete basis set limit and by assessing the performance of the density functional methods B3LYP, PBE, PBE0, B970, PB86, M05-2X, and M06-2X and empirical dispersion corrected methods B3LYP-D3, PBE-D3, PBE0-D3, B970-D2, BP86-D3, and ωB97X-D, with basis sets 6-311++G(3df,3pd), aug-cc-pVDZ, and aug-cc-pVTZ. Although H-bonding interactions are dominated by electrostatics, it is necessary to properly account for dispersion interactions to obtain accurate energetics. In order to quantitatively probe the nature of hydrogen bonding interactions as a function of distance, we decompose the interaction energy curves into physically meaningful components with symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT). The SAPT results confirm that the contribution of dispersion and induction are significant at and near equilibrium, although electrostatics dominate. Among the DFT/DFT-D techniques, the best overall results are obtained utilizing counterpoise-corrected ωB97X-D with the aug-cc-pVDZ basis set.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
