Abstract

In the recent research, we found that whereas conventional DFT functionals have given poor calculations on alkane isodesmic reaction energy and isomerization reaction energy of organic molecules including C, N, and O atoms,1,2 our developed LC- and LCgau-DFT+LRD3 functionals which can calculate well inter- and intra-molecular weak interactions successfully can give accurate isomerization energies on these reactions. In this presentation, we show that B3LYP-D3 and wB97XD known for well describing weak interaction calculations failed in reproducing the isomerization reaction energies of the molecules with S atom, such as methylthiourea, iso-propylthiourea,. dimethylthiourea, but LCgau-BOP+LRD can successfully reproduce the isomerization reaction energies close to high accuracy wave function method, CCSD(T). Consequently, LCgau-BOP+LRD method is considered to be useful for large molecular system computations where inter- and intra-molecular weak interaction is important. 1) J.-W. Song, T. Tsuneda, T.
