Аннотация:The lowest energy stationary points on the potential energy surfaces of the hydrogen fluoride clusters (HF), (4 less than or equal to n less than or equal to 6) predicted by the semiempirical diatomics-in-ionic-systeins (DIIS) approach are verified by using ab initio MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ, MP2/6-311+G** and hybrid B3LYP/6-311+G** calculations. The results are also compared with the predictions of the polarizable mechanics model [Hodges et al., J. Phys. Chem. A, 102 (1998) 2455]. It is concluded that the DIIS scheme which is an inexpensive tool to scan large areas of potential energy surfaces may serve as a guide for the search of global and local minima points, with a reliability competitive to other approaches in the theory of intermolecular interactions.
