Solvent exchange quantum mechanics models

Quantum chemical methods are well established, accepted and of high potential for investigation of inorganic reaction mechanisms, especially if they can be applied as a fruitful interplay between theory and experiment. In the case of solvent exchange reactions their major deficiency is the limited possibility of including solvent effects. We demonstrated that with recent DFT-and ab initio methods, reaction mechanisms can be successfully explored. To obtain an idea about solvent effects, implicit solvent models can be used in the calculations, when their limitations are kept in mind. In future, more powerful computers will be available and will allow more sophisticated calculations to be performed. This will enable scientists to treat solvent molecules explicitly by ab initio molecular dynamics (e.g., Car-Parrinello simulations). The application of such methods will in turn complement the quantum chemical toolbox for the exploration of solvent and ligand exchange reactions. [Pg.564]

Classical, semi-classical, and quantum mechanical procedures have been developed to rationalize and predict the rates of electron transfer. In summary, the observed rate of a self-exchange reaction can be calculated as a function of interatomic distances, force constants, electronic coupling matrix element, and solvent parameters. These model parameters are either calculated, estimated, or determined by experiment, in each case with a corresponding standard deviation. Error propagation immediately demonstrates that calculated rates have error ranges of roughly two orders of magnitude, independent of the level of sophistication in the numerical procedures. [Pg.175]
