Ground State of the (H2O)2+ Radical Cation: DFT versus Post-Hartree−Fock Methods

Sodupe, Mariona, Bertran, Juan, Rodríguez-Santiago, Luis, Baerends, E. J.·1999·The Journal of Physical Chemistry A

Abstract

Correlated calculations show the proton-transferred OH−H 3 O + isomer to be the ground-state structure of the (H 2 O) 2 + dimer ion, with the C 2 h hemibond structure being ca. 8 kcal/mol less stable. Modern density functionals however favor the hemibond structure, overestimating the strength of the three-electron bond by ca. 17 kcal/mol. The wrong prediction of the relative stability of the two isomers is attributed to overestimation by the exchange functionals of the self-interaction part of the exchange energy in the hemibond ion due to its delocalized electron hole. It is cautioned that this erroneous behavior of the density functionals for exchange, if unrecognized, may lead to wrong predictions for ground-state structures of systems with a three-electron bond.

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.
