摘要
The application of quantum chemical, automatic multilevel modeling workflows for the determination of thermodynamic (e.g., conformation equilibria, partition coefficients, pK a values) and spectroscopic properties of relatively large, nonrigid molecules in solution is described. Key points are the computation of rather complete structure (conformer) ensembles with extremely fast but still reasonable GFN2-xTB or GFN-FF semiempirical methods in the CREST searching approach and subsequent refinement at a recently developed, accurate r(2)SCAN-3c DFT composite level. Solvation effects are included in all steps by accurate continuum solvation models (ALPB, (D)COSMO-RS). Consistent inclusion of thermostatistical contributions in the framework of the modified rigid-rotor-harmonic-oscillator approximation (mRRHO) based on xTB/FF computed PES is also recommended.
