An Assessment of RASSCF and TDDFT Energies and Gradients on an Organic Donor−Acceptor Dye Assisted by Resonance Raman Spectroscopy
Abstrakt
The excitation energies and gradients in the ground and the first excited state of a novel donor−(π- bridge)−acceptor 4-methoxy-1,3-thiazole-based chromophore were investigated by means of MS-RASPT2/RASSCF and TDDFT in solution. Within both methods, the excitation energies strongly depend on the employed equilibrium structures, whose differences can be rationalized in terms of bond length alternation indexes. It is shown that functionals with an increased amount of exact exchange provide the best estimation of the ground and excited state properties. While B3LYP fails to predict the excitation energies due to its intrinsic problems in describing charge transfer (CT) states, the longrange corrected CAM-B3LYP and M06-2X functionals deliver good agreement with the experimental UV/vis absorption spectrum. The calculation of resonance Raman intensity patterns is used to discern which ground and excited state gradients are best. The results clearly evidence that both CAM-B3LYP and RASSCF excited state gradients and energies in combination with CAM-B3LYP ground state gradients are appropriate to describe the CT state of this push−pull chromophore.
