Density Functional Theory (DFT) and dispersion-corrected density functional theory (DFT-D) were used to study the intermolecular interactions of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene FOX-7/NH3and FOX-7/H2O supermolecules. The geometries optimized from DFT and DFT-D methods are similar.Six optimized supermolecules were characterized to be local energy minima on potential energy surfaces without imaginary frequencies. The intermolecular interaction energy (binding energy) was calculated with basis set superposition error (BSSE) correction. The largest corrected intermolecular interaction energy is FOX-7/NH3 (-43.76 kJ×mol-1), indicating that the interaction between FOX-7 and NH3 is stronger than that of FOX-7/H2O. The same conclusion is obtained from the studies on the infrared spectrum and frontier orbitals.

Possible HF tetramer geometries have been optimized employing the density functional B3LYP method and the aug-cc-pVQZ basis set. Deformation energy has been calculated at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVQZ level. After the BSSE correction with the CP method, two-body intermolecular interaction energy, three-body nonadditive intermolecular interaction energy, and four-body nonadditive intermolecular interaction energy (Δ E c[4]) have been obtained at the levels of B3LYP/aug-cc–pVQZ, B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/aug-cc-pVQZ, and MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/aug-cc-pVQZ. Calculated results show that the three-body nonadditive intermolecular interaction energy is important for the optimized structures of HF tetramer. At the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/aug-cc-pVQZ level, the four-body nonadditive intermolecular interaction strength arrives at -4.5kJ/mol in the optimized eight-membered ring structure, but is extremely weak in other optimized structures. The comparison between MP2 and B3LYP calculated intermolecular interaction energies shows that the B3LYP method is applicable to the calculation of the intermolecular interaction energy of HF tetramer when the basis set reaches aug-cc-pVTZ. ΔEc[4] occupies 8–32% of the total intermolecular interaction energy when the intermolecular distances of the eight-membered ring structure are in the range of 1.06–1.37 Å.

<div>We introduce a dataset of 24 interaction energy curves of open-shell noncovalent dimers, referred to as the O24x5 dataset. The dataset consists of high-spin dimers up to eleven atoms selected to assure diversity with respect to interactions types: dispersion, electrostatics and induction. The benchmark interaction energies are obtained at the restricted open-shell CCSD(T) level of theory with complete basis set extrapolation aug-cc-pVQZ--> aug-cc-pV5Z.</div>

The intermolecular interaction in difluoromethane, dichloromethane, dibromomethane, and diiodomethane dimers has been investigated using high level quantum chemical methods. The potential energy curve of intermolecular interaction along the C⋯C bond distance obtained using the coupled-cluster theory with singles, doubles, and perturbative triples excitations CCSD(T) were compared with values given by the same method, but applying the local (LCCSD(T)) and the explicitly correlated (CCSD(T)-F12) approximations. The accuracy of other theoretical methods—Hartree–Fock (HF), second order Møller–Plesset perturbation (MP2), and dispersion corrected DFT theory—were also presented. In the case of MP2 level, the canonical and the local-correlation cases combined with the density-fitting technique (DF-LMP2)theories were considered, while for the dispersion-corrected DFT, the empirically-corrected BLYP-D and the M06-2Xexchange-correlation functionals were applied. In all cases, the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set was used, and the results were corrected for the basis set superposition error (BSSE) using the counterpoise method. For each molecular system, several dimer geometries were found, and their mutual orientations were compared with the nearest neighbor orientations obtained in recent neutron scattering studies. The nature of the intermolecular interaction energy was discussed.

Three fully optimized geometries of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (NTO)-H2O complexes have been obtained with density function theory (DFT) method at the B3LYP/6-311++G** level. The intermolecular interaction energy is calculated with zero point energy (ZPE) correction and basis set superposition error (BSSE) correction. The greatest corrected intermolecular interaction of the NTO–H2O complexes is -30.14 KJ/mol. Electrons in complex systems transfer from H2O to NTO . The strong hydrogen bonds contribute to the interaction energies dominantly. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis is performed to reveal the origin of the interaction. Based on the vibrational analysis, the changes of thermodynamic properties from the monomer to complexes with the temperature ranging from 200 K to 800 K have been obtained using the statistical thermodynamic method. It is found that three NTO –water complexes can be produced spontaneously from NTO and H2O at lower temperature.
