Capturing the Dynamic Correlation for Arbitrary Spin-Symmetry CASSCF Reference with Adiabatic Connection Approaches: Insights into the Electronic Structure of the Tetramethyleneethane Diradical

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The recently proposed approach to multireference dynamic correlation energy based on the adiabatic connection (AC) is extended to an arbitrary spin symmetry of the reference state. We show that both the spin-free AC approach and its computationally inexpensive approximation, AC0, when combined with a complete active space wave function, constitute viable alternatives to the perturbation-based and density-functional-based multiconfiguration methods. In particular, the AC0 approach, thanks to its favorable scaling with the system size and the size of the active space, allows for treating larger systems than its perturbation-based counterparts while maintaining comparable accuracy. We show the method’s robustness on illustrative chemical systems, including the elusive tetramethyleneethane (TME) diradical, potential energy surfaces of which present a challenge to most computational approaches. For the latter system, AC0 outperforms other methods, staying in close agreement with the full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo benchmark. A careful analysis of the contributions to the correlation energy of TME’s lowest singlet and triplet states reveals the subtle interplay of the dynamic and static correlation as the key to understanding the shape of the diradical’s potential energy surfaces.
