Abstract

We present an application of the recently introduced Localized Pair Model (LPM) [Z. A. Zielinksi and J. K. Pearson, Comput. Theor. Chem., 2013, 1003, 7990] to characterize and quantify properties of the chemical bond in a series of substituted benzoic acid molecules. By computing interelectronic distribution functions for doubly-occupied Edmiston–Ruedenberg localized molecular orbitals (LMOs), we show that chemically intuitive electron pairs may be uniquely classified and bond strength may be predicted with remarkable accuracy. Specifically, the HF/u6-311G(d,p) level (where u denotes a complete uncontraction of the basis set) is used to generate the relevant LMOs and their respective interelectronic distribution functions can be linearly correlated to the well-known Hammett σp or σm parameters with near-unity correlation coefficients.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
