Benchmarks and Reliable DFT Results for Spin Gaps of Small Ligand Fe(II) Complexes

Abstract: All-electron fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo provides benchmark spin gaps for four Fe(II) octahedral complexes. Standard quantum chemical methods (semilocal DFT and CCSD(T)) fail badly for the energy difference between their high- and low-spin states. Density-corrected DFT is both significantly more accurate and reliable and yields a consistent prediction for the Fe-Porphyrin complex.

“…In principle, the diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) andC ASPT2 methodsa re expected to be the most accurate. Very recently,S ong et al [82] reported ad ifferent set of DMC calculations (starting from B3LYP orbitals) also shown in Table 1. The DMC results of Droghetti et al, [27] given in the second row of Ta ble 1, suggest DE values that are high compared with those obtained from other methods.…”

“…19 and 20 dictate the following chain of inequalities: v ] are the density-driven terms, as they are given by the difference between the same energy functional evaluated on different densities. Generalizing the ideas of DC-DFT [13,14,21,22,23,24,25], for any pair of density functionals, we classify a ∆E v energy difference as energy-or density-driven. We consider energy-driven ∆E v as ones whose functional-driven terms in Eqs.…”
