CCL:G: Solvent-corrected Gibbs free energies



Dear Arne,
 Thanks for your reply. Sorry for the confusion.
 Below is an example from the Gaussian manual. For the output file in Gaussian
 03, we could obtain
 (1) Total free energy in solution: with all non electrostatic terms  
 (2) Solvent-phase electronic energies, which is the value associated with
 SCF(Done)
 I am not sure which value I should use if I include the thermal correction to
 Gibbs free energy from the vibrational frequency calculation.
 SCF Done:  E(RHF) =  -98.569083211     A.U.
 after    5 cycles
           Convg 
 =   
 0.4249D-05            
 -V/T =  2.0033
           S**2  
 =   0.0000
 --------------------------------------------------------------------
 Variational PCM results
 =======================
 <psi(f)|   H  
 |psi(f)>                
 (a.u.) =     -98.568013
 <psi(f)|H+V(f)/2|psi(f)>               
 (a.u.) =     -98.569083
 Total free energy in solution:
  with all non electrostatic terms      
 (a.u.) =     -98.573228
 --------------------------------------------------------------------
 (Polarized
 solute)-Solvent              
 (kcal/mol) =      -3.27
 --------------------------------------------------------------------
 Cavitation
 energy                       
 (kcal/mol) =       5.34
 Dispersion
 energy               
         (kcal/mol)
 =      -3.08
 Repulsion
 energy                        
 (kcal/mol) =       0.34
 Total non
 electrostatic                 
 (kcal/mol) =       2.60  
 --------------------------------------------------------------------
  
 Best regards,
 Sue

 Hi Sue,
 the two methods you are describing are exactly the same, as you are only
 changing the order in which different quantities are added.
 Cheers,
 Arne

 Dear CCL users,<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; Could someone help me with
 the following question?<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; If I want to
 calculate the solvent-corrected Gibbs free energies of the molecules based on
 the gas-phase optimized geometry usinf gaussian 03. Which of the following
 methods is more appropriate?<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt;&gt; From
 the vibrational frequency calculation of the gas-phase optimized structure, I
 could obtain the thermal correction to Gibbs Free Energy<BR>&gt;
 <BR>&gt;&gt; From the single-point PCM calculation, I could obtain
 the total free
  energy in solution: with all non electrostatic terms as well as solvent-phase
 electronic energies (The energy value associated with
 SCF(Done))<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; (1) The solvent-corrected Gibbs
 free energies = the total free energy in solution + thermal correction to Gibbs
 Free Energy<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; Or<BR>&gt;
 <BR>&gt; (2) The solvent-corrected Gibbs free energies = gas-phase
 Gibbs free energies + (solvent-phase electronic energies&nbsp; - gas-phase
 electronic energies)<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; Thank you very much
 for your kind help.<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; Best
 regards,<BR>&gt; Sue&gt;
