1 Quantum Chemistry for Supramolecular Complexes Stefan Grimme Mulliken Center for Theoretical Chemistry, University of Bonn COSMO Symposium, March 2015

2 Supramolecular chemistry: chemistry beyond the covalent bond Nobel Prize in 1987 pioneering work at Bonn University F. Vögtle molecular systems made of assembled components organized by noncovalent interactions. Concepts include: molecular recognition and self-assembly template-directed processes molecular machinery (motors, switches) mechanically-interlocked molecular architectures encapsulation bottom-up approaches to nanotechnology models for protein-ligand binding

3 Non-covalent interactions (termed non-bonding in the FF community)

4 Noncovalent networks In a biological (protein-ligand) system various types of NCI are present:

5 The complexity of supramolecular processes solvation/de-solvation entropy (conformations/flexibility)

6 Theoretical Methods

7 Supramolecular interactions in solution: The ( had no good idea ) Method Brute force approach: compute all parts accurately (thermodynamic cycle), no further empiricism In solvent X at temperature T for single structures in the reaction host + guest Ka supramolecular complex G a = E(gas) + E(gas) = GTRV T (gas) + δg }{{} solv(x T ) }{{} DFT or semiemp. harm. freq. COSMO RS low freq.mode approx. E } DFT {{} + E (2) disp + E (3) disp }{{} PW 6B95/QZ// TPSS D3/TZ D3 method applicable to any semi-rigid (a few conformers) system

8 Supramolecular interactions in solution: The ( had no good idea ) Method By reversing the basic equation, experimental gas phase data can be estimated: Theory only: G(theor.) = E(gas) + GTRV T (gas) + δg }{{} solv(x T ) }{{} harm. freq. COSMO RS low freq.mode approx. Reverse basic equation and use exptl. G: E(gas, est. exptl.) = G(exptl.) GTRV T (gas) δg }{{} solv(x T ) primary quantity in QM to compare

13 Important Opposed to many empirical (FF, alchemic) methods we try to compute absolute G (and not relative G which is much easier). This yields physical insight and eventually also leads to accurate G.

35 Recipe to calculate accuracte G a use HF-3c or DFTB3-D3 for initial pree-screening re-optimize with TPSS-D3/TZ and include counter ions if nessecary compute E with PW6B95-D3/QZ (or ωb97x-d3/qz as alternative or when counter ions are present) calculate GRRHO T with HF-3c employ COSMO-RS(13fine) to get δgsolv T (X ) for water and if counter ions are present and COSMO-RS(12) otherwise only prerequisites: certain rigidity and charges not higher/lower than +4/-2

36 Conclusions Solid 5-10 % accuracy of DFT-D3 for non-covalent interactions Tailored levels of QM accuracy, similar for structures (not discussed) Three-body dispersion effects are important for binding energies of large systems (about 5 % of E (2) disp ) Semi-empirical methods are useful (typical % error), MP2-type methods are problematic Charged systems (and their charge state under the experimental conditions) are somewhat problematic (solvation terms) Remaining error for G a is mainly due to E(gas) and δg(solv) Similar accuracy for molecular crystals in periodic calculations (errors for H vap of about 1 kcal, about 1-2% cell volume error)
