Abstract
The "dative" covalent interactions between metals and ligands in coordination compounds, i.e., metal-to-ligand and ligand-to-metal donation, are manifestations of electron delocalization and subject to errors in approximate calculations. This work addresses the extent of dative bonding/donation in a series of closed-shell transition metal complexes. Several Kohn-Sham density functionals, representing different "rungs" of approximations, along with post-Hartree-Fock methods are assessed in comparison to CCSD(T). Two widely used nonhybrid and global hybrid density functionals (B3LYP, PBE0) tend to produce notably too strong donation. Global hybrids with elevated fractions of exact exchange (40 to 50%) and the range-separated exchange functional CAM-B3LYP tend to perform better for the description of the donation. The performance of a double-hybrid functional is found to be quite satisfactory, correcting errors seen in MP2 calculations. A fast approximate coupled-cluster model (DLPNO-CCSD) also gives a reasonable description of the donation, with a tendency to underestimate its extent.

Schattenberg C, Kaupp M. Implementation and First Evaluation of Strong-Correlation-Corrected Local Hybrid Functionals for the Calculation of NMR Shieldings and Shifts. J Phys Chem A 2024; 128:2253-2271. [PMID: 38456430 PMCID: PMC10961831 DOI: 10.1021/acs.jpca.3c08507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
Local hybrid functionals containing strong-correlation factors (scLHs) and range-separated local hybrids (RSLHs) have been integrated into an efficient coupled-perturbed Kohn-Sham implementation for the calculation of nuclear shielding constants. Several scLHs and the ωLH22t RSLH have then been evaluated for the first time for the extended NS372 benchmark set of main-group shieldings and shifts and the TM70 benchmark of 3d transition-metal shifts. The effects of the strong-correlation corrections have been analyzed with respect to the spatial distribution of the sc-factors, which locally diminish exact-exchange admixture at certain regions in a molecule. The scLH22t, scLH23t-mBR, and scLH23t-mBR-P functionals, which contain a "damped" strong-correlation factor to retain the excellent performance of the underlying LH20t functional for weakly correlated situations, tend to make smaller corrections to shieldings and shifts than the "undamped" scLH22ta functional. While the latter functional can also deteriorate agreement with the reference data in certain weakly correlated cases, it provides overall better performance, in particular for systems where static correlation is appreciable. This pertains only to a minority of systems in the NS372 main-group test set but to many more systems in the TM70 transition-metal test set, in particular for high-oxidation-state complexes, e.g., Cr(+VI) complexes and other systems with stretched bonds. Another undamped scLH, the simpler LDA-based scLH21ct-SVWN-m, also tends to provide significant improvements in many cases. The differences between the functionals and species can be rationalized on the basis of one-dimensional plots of the strong-correlation factors, augmented by isosurface plots of the fractional orbital density (FOD). Position-dependent exact-exchange admixture is thus shown to provide substantial flexibility in treating response properties like NMR shifts for both weakly and strongly correlated systems.

Abstract
A benchmark set for the computation of 207Pb nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) chemical shifts is presented. The PbS50 set includes conformer ensembles of 50 lead-containing molecular compounds and their experimentally measured 207Pb NMR chemical shifts. Various bonding motifs at the Pb center with up to seven bonding partners are included. Six different solvents were used in the measurements. The respective shifts lie in the range between +10745 and -5030 ppm. Several calculation settings are assessed by evaluating computed 207Pb NMR shifts for the use with different density functional approximations (DFAs), relativistic approaches, treatment of the conformational space, and levels for geometry optimization. Relativistic effects were included explicitly with the zeroth order regular approximation (ZORA), for which only the spin-orbit variant was able to yield reliable results. In total, seven GGAs and three hybrid DFAs were tested. Hybrid DFAs significantly outperform GGAs. The most accurate DFAs are mPW1PW with a mean absolute deviation (MAD) of 429 ppm and PBE0 with an MAD of 446 ppm. Conformational influences are small as most compounds are rigid, but more flexible structures still benefit from Boltzmann averaging. Including explicit relativistic treatments such as SO-ZORA in the geometry optimization does not show any significant improvement over the use of effective core potentials (ECPs).

Abstract
As one of the most powerful analytical methods for molecular and solid-state structure elucidation, NMR spectroscopy is an integral part of chemical laboratories associated with a great research interest in its computational simulation. Particularly when heavy atoms are present, a relativistic treatment is essential in the calculations as these influence also the nearby light atoms. In this work, we present a Δ-machine learning method that approximates the contribution to 13C and 1H NMR chemical shifts that stems from spin-orbit (SO) coupling effects. It is built on computed reference data at the spin-orbit zeroth-order regular approximation (ZORA) DFT level for a set of 6388 structures with 38 740 13C and 64 436 1H NMR chemical shifts. The scope of the methods covers the 17 most important heavy p-block elements that exhibit heavy atom on the light atom (HALA) effects to covalently bound carbon or hydrogen atoms. Evaluated on the test data set, the approach is able to recover roughly 85% of the SO contribution for 13C and 70% for 1H from a scalar-relativistic PBE0/ZORA-def2-TZVP calculation at virtually no extra computational costs. Moreover, the method is transferable to other baseline DFT methods even without retraining the model and performs well for realistic organotin and -lead compounds. Finally, we show that using a combination of the new approach with our previous Δ-ML method for correlation contributions to NMR chemical shifts, the mean absolute NMR shift deviations from non-relativistic DFT calculations to experimental values can be halved.

Abstract
The tremendous importance of dirhodium paddlewheel complexes for asymmetric catalysis is largely the result of an empirical optimization of the chiral ligand sphere about the bimetallic core. It was only recently that a H(C)Rh triple resonance 103 Rh NMR experiment provided the long-awaited opportunity to examine - with previously inconceivable accuracy - how variation of the ligands impacts on the electronic structure of such catalysts. The recorded effects are dramatic: formal replacement of only one out of eight O-atoms surrounding the metal centers in a dirhodium tetracarboxylate by an N-atom results in a shielding of the corresponding Rh-site of no less than 1000 ppm. The current paper provides the theoretical framework that allows this and related experimental observations made with a set of 19 representative rhodium complexes to be interpreted. In line with symmetry considerations, it is shown that the shielding tensor responds only to the donor ability of the equatorial ligands along the perpendicular principal axis. Axial ligands, in contrast, have no direct effect on shielding but may come into play via the electronicc i s ${cis}$ -effect that they exert onto the neighboring equatorial sites. On top of these fundamental interactions, charge redistribution within the core as well as the electronict r a n s ${trans}$ -effect of ligands of different donor strengths is reflected in the recorded 103 Rh NMR shifts.

Abstract
In a recent study [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2021, 17, 1457-1468], some of us examined the accuracy of magnetizabilities calculated with density functionals representing the local density approximation (LDA), generalized gradient approximation (GGA), meta-GGA (mGGA), as well as global hybrid (GH) and range-separated (RS) hybrid functionals by assessment against accurate reference values obtained with coupled-cluster theory with singles, doubles, and perturbative triples [CCSD(T)]. Our study was later extended to local hybrid (LH) functionals by Holzer et al. [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2021, 17, 2928-2947]; in this work, we examine a larger selection of LH functionals, also including range-separated LH (RSLH) functionals and strong-correlation LH (scLH) functionals. Holzer et al. also studied the importance of the physically correct handling of the magnetic gauge dependence of the kinetic energy density (τ) in mGGA calculations by comparing the Maximoff-Scuseria formulation of τ used in our aforementioned study to the more physical current-density extension derived by Dobson. In this work, we also revisit this comparison with a larger selection of mGGA functionals. We find that the newly tested LH, RSLH, and scLH functionals outperform all of the functionals considered in the previous studies. The various LH functionals afford the seven lowest mean absolute errors while also showing remarkably small standard deviations and mean errors. Most strikingly, the best two functionals are scLHs that also perform remarkably well in cases with significant multiconfigurational character, such as the ozone molecule, which is traditionally excluded from statistical error evaluations due to its large errors with common density functionals.

Abstract
In local hybrid functionals (LHs), a local mixing function (LMF) determines the position-dependent exact-exchange admixture. We report new LHs that focus on an improvement of the LMF in the core region while retaining or partly improving upon the high accuracy in the valence region exhibited by the LH20t functional. The suggested new pt-LMFs are based on a Padé form and modify the previously used ratio between von Weizsäcker and Kohn-Sham local kinetic energies by different powers of the density to enable flexibly improved approximations to the correct high-density and iso-orbital limits relevant for the innermost core region. Using TDDFT calculations for a set of K-shell core excitations of second- and third-period systems including accurate state-of-the-art relativistic orbital corrections, the core part of the LMF is optimized, while the valence part is optimized as previously reported for test sets of atomization energies and reaction barriers (Haasler et al., J Chem Theory Comput 2020, 16, 5645). The LHs are completed by a calibration function that minimizes spurious nondynamical correlation effects caused by the gauge ambiguities of exchange-energy densities, as well as by B95c meta-GGA correlation. The resulting LH23pt functional relates to the previous LH20t functional but specifically improves upon the core region.

Abstract
TURBOMOLE is a highly optimized software suite for large-scale quantum-chemical and materials science simulations of molecules, clusters, extended systems, and periodic solids. TURBOMOLE uses Gaussian basis sets and has been designed with robust and fast quantum-chemical applications in mind, ranging from homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis to inorganic and organic chemistry and various types of spectroscopy, light-matter interactions, and biochemistry. This Perspective briefly surveys TURBOMOLE's functionality and highlights recent developments that have taken place between 2020 and 2023, comprising new electronic structure methods for molecules and solids, previously unavailable molecular properties, embedding, and molecular dynamics approaches. Select features under development are reviewed to illustrate the continuous growth of the program suite, including nuclear electronic orbital methods, Hartree-Fock-based adiabatic connection models, simplified time-dependent density functional theory, relativistic effects and magnetic properties, and multiscale modeling of optical properties.

Abstract
We report the first full and efficient implementation of range-separated local hybrid functionals (RSLHs) into the TURBOMOLE program package. This enables the computation of ground-state energies and nuclear gradients as well as excitation energies. Regarding the computational effort, RSLHs scale like regular local hybrid functionals (LHs) with system or basis set size and increase timings by a factor of 2-3 in total. An advanced RSLH, ωLH22t, has been optimized for atomization energies and reaction barriers. It is an extension of the recent LH20t local hybrid and is based on short-range PBE and long-range HF exchange-energy densities, a pig2 calibration function to deal with the gauge ambiguity of exchange-energy densities, and reoptimized B95c correlation. ωLH22t has been evaluated for a wide range of ground-state and excited-state quantities. It further improves upon the already successful LH20t functional for the GMTKN55 main-group energetics test suite, and it outperforms any global hybrid while performing close to the top rung-4 functional, ωB97M-V, for these evaluations when augmented by D4 dispersion corrections. ωLH22t performs excellently for transition-metal reactivity and provides good balance between delocalization errors and left-right correlation for mixed-valence systems, with a somewhat larger bias toward localized states compared to LH20t. It approaches the accuracy of the best local hybrids to date for core, valence singlet and triplet, and Rydberg excitation energies while improving strikingly on intra- and intermolecular charge-transfer excitations, comparable to the most successful range-separated hybrids available.

Abstract
The recent idea (Wodyński, A.; Arbuznikov, A. V.; Kaupp M. J. Chem. Phys. 2021, 155, 144101) to augment local hybrid functionals by a strong-correlation (sc) factor obtained from the adiabatic connection in the spirit of the KP16 model has been extended and applied to generate the accurate sc-corrected local hybrid functional scLH22t. By damping small values of the ratio between nondynamical and dynamical correlation entering the correction factor, it has become possible to avoid double counting of nondynamical correlation for weakly correlated situations and thereby preserve the excellent accuracy of the underlying LH20t local hybrid for such cases almost perfectly. On the other hand, scLH22t improves substantially over LH20t in reducing fractional-spin errors (FSEs), in providing improved spin-restricted bond dissociation curves, and in treating some typical systems with multireference character. The obtained FSEs are similar to those of the KP16/B13 model and slightly larger than for B13, but performance for weakly correlated systems is better than for these two related methods, which are also difficult to use self-consistently. The recent DM21 functional based on the training of a deep neural network still performs somewhat better than scLH22t but allows no physical insights into the origins of reduced FSEs. Examination of local mixing functions (LMFs) for the corrected scLH22t and uncorrected LH20t functionals provides further insights: in weakly correlated situations, the LMF remains essentially unchanged. Strong-correlation effects manifest in a reduction of the LMF values in certain regions of space, even to the extent of producing negative LMF values. It is suggested that this is the mechanism by which also DM21, which may be viewed as a range-separated local hybrid, is able to reduce FSEs.

Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful and versatile tools in elucidating molecular structures. To eliminate ambiguities of experimental assignments, accurate calculations of NMR spectra are of great importance. Here, a method for theoretical evaluation of the NMR shielding constants by analytic derivatives using gauge including atomic orbitals (GIAO) has been implemented for the XYG3 type of doubly hybrid density functionals (xDH), namely, the GIAO-xDH method. Benchmark calculations on shielding constants and chemical shifts demonstrate the remarkable accuracy of the GIAO-xDH method, compared to the accurate CCSD(T) references. It is shown here that the XYGJ-OS functional is able to give a mean absolute deviation (MAD) of ∼3.0 ppm in the calculated shielding constants for 13C, 15N, 17O, 19F, while both XYGJ-OS and xDH-PBE0 functionals are able to provide a satisfactory estimation of chemical shifts with MADs of ∼0.03 and 1.0 ppm for 1H and 13C, respectively. The basis set influence upon the method has been examined and a computational scheme considering both accuracy and efficiency has been proposed and tested to predict the experimental 13C chemical shifts of five medium-sized natural product molecules, yielding a MAD of ∼1.0 ppm, which demonstrates the practical feasibility of the GIAO-xDH method.
