Frontiers of Quantum Chemistry

Abstract

We review the current state and future prospects of coupled cluster response theory for modeling chiroptical properties in both gas-phase and solvated systems. We first provide an overview of ground-state coupled cluster theory and the analytic derivative approach to computing time-independent properties, and then extend this to time-dependent perturbations. Through the well-established “quasi-energy” approach, we demonstrate the connection between the analytic derivative and response approaches, emphasizing the usefulness of the latter for frequency-dependent chiroptical properties. In addition, we review successes of response theory in the prediction of gas-phase specific rotations and electronic circular dichroism spectra for small molecules and the physical requirements of a robust computational model of such properties. We also discuss the many challenges of extending this reliability to solvated systems through several key examples for which theory and experiment diverge significantly.
