CCL:G: Solvent-corrected Gibbs free energies



Sent to CCL by: Andreas Klamt [klamt[-]cosmologic.de] Sear Sue,

perhaps have a look at
Ho J., Klamt A., Coote M.L. Comment on the correct use of continuum solvent models. J. Phys. Chem. A (2010), 114(51), 13442–13444

This exactly handles your questions.

Best regards

Andreas

 Dear Sue,
 here is a link to the Gaussian 03 User Reference Guide answering your question:
 http://www.inc.bme.hu/common/g03_man/g_ur/k_scrf.htm
 You have to use the total free energy in solution with all non-electrostatic
 terms.
 Cheers,
 Arne

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

 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,
 Could someone help me with the following question?
 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?
 
From the vibrational frequency calculation of the
 gas-phase optimized structure, I could obtain the thermal correction to Gibbs
 Free Energy
 
 
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))
 
 (1) The solvent-corrected Gibbs free energies = the total free energy in
 solution + thermal correction to Gibbs Free Energy
 Or
 (2) The solvent-corrected Gibbs free energies = gas-phase Gibbs free energies +
 (solvent-phase electronic energies  - gas-phase electronic energies)
 Thank you very much for your kind help.
 Best regards,
 Sue--130478739-893504848-1320070366=:1570

 you are describing are exactly the same, as you are only changing the order in

 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 stru
 cture, 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
