Help to the use of quantum chemistry


Duration :15h Th
Credits/ECTS :
2nd "licence" chemical sciences2
Holder(s) :Dominique Dehareng
Course contents : This course deals with the following points:
1) Application framework of commonly used methods like the semiempirical ones (CNDO,AM1,PM3), the ab initio methods (Hartree-Fock and post-Hartree-Fock) and the functional density methods (DFT).
2) Molecular mechanics (MM), molecular dynamics (MD) and the mixed models quantum-classical QM/MM.
3) The geometry optimisation and the research of transition states (TS).
4) The calculation of molecular properties, like net charges, multipoles, electrostatic potential, frequencies, thermochemical analysis.
5) The solvant influence and some of the models commonly used.
6) Intermolecular interactions.
