SUMMARY: energy decomposition
3 weeks ago I asked:
#I'm looking for a method for intramolecular energy decomposition,
#which is able to give the various contributions to the total energy
#of rotational barriers like e.g. the ones in ethane, ethene ...
#
#The decomposition schemes of Morokuma and also of Ziegler seem to be
#applicable only for intermolecular interactions, as is the version
#available in Gamess. With NBO analysis I get Fock matrix energy terms
#for various bond bond interactions, but here it seems that I am
#restricted to one localized mesomeric structure.
#I would like to have a consistent measure of steric, bonding and
#antibonding, mesomeric contributions to total energy.
#Is there any program available that can do this?
I got 4 answers. Two of the people asked to summarize. The others
suggested to following:
1) ADF: Tom Zieglers decomposition scheme publ. in
Theor. Chim. Acta
2) Gamess:
________________________________________answers in details:
Answer 1) Andreas Ehlers (answer in German)
in short: with the mehod of Ziegler as implemented in ADF, it is
possible to calculate
- electrostatic interactions
- Pauli repulsion (steric effects)
- orbital interaction (occ. of one fragment with virt. of other)
Answer 2) Jan Jensen
Hello,
GAMESS also offers the Localized Charge Distribution energy
decomposition scheme. I have
attached some references below. The early references use the original,
semiempirical,
implementation to look at rotation barriers in small molecules like
ethane. The later papers use the
method to study hydrogen bonding and proton transfer.
Hope this helps. Best regards, Jan Jensen

Additionally, I got some files with results regarding my chemical
problem utilizing NBO 4.0 as implemented in Gaussian98, which has
natural resonance theory and natural steric theory, but I'm not sure
if these results fit to my problem...
