#1 Multiwfn and wavefunction analysis » Warning that charge is high in Molden input file » 2022-11-29 15:54:13

Orca input file

# shrock

Compound formula

Mo(CH2)(OtBu)2(NC8H10)

I get the message "Orca terminated normally" and the total charge was zero in the Orca listing file
When I try to use MultiWFN to do a LOBA calculation I get

!! Warning! Warning! Warning! Warning! Warning! Warning! Warning! Warning !!
The net charge of this system is quite large (   28)! Probably ECP is employed while you forgot to modify the atomic indices
in [atoms] field of the .molden file to actual nuclear charges, in this case some analysis results will be problematic!
Please check "Molden" part of Section 2.5 of Multiwfn manual to understand why and how to modify the file

The command I use to generate the Molden input file is

c:\ORCA\ORCA_2MKL jobname -molden

I had a look at the molden input file but am unable to follow the advics on modifying the atomic indices.

Sorry for not being clear. Does the b option require two basin types or can just one be used.

Many thanks for the video. I have got it to work. I have used cd in the vmd window to go to the current working directory using cd c:/folder etc.

What is the correct answer to the b command when there is only one type of basin (no 2-synaptic basins) as in ClF5?

Sorting basins according to labels...
The following information is printed according to order of basin labels
Basin indices, populations (e), volumes (Angstrom^3) and assigned labels
#    1  Basin   15  Pop.:  2.2556  Vol.:    0.003  Label: C(Cl1)

Number of core basins is     7, their indices:
6,12-15,17,19
Number of  1-synaptic basins is    12, their indices:
1-5,7-11,16,18

I have tried many times with different compounds but I always get the same result. I don't know what I am doing wrong. I am sorry to be looking for so much help. Are cub and vmd files available for an example which I could try to emulate?

#7 Re: Multiwfn and wavefunction analysis » Electron Localization Function analysis via Topmod » 2022-09-28 14:19:41

I have tried three different PCs with updated graphics drivers and I get the same result.
I have tried setting the environment variable "VMDSIMPLEGRAPHICS" to "1" and the result is that the black is changed to light grey.
I will try more PCs.

Thanks

I have a problem getting VMD to display ELF analysis in color. I have followed the oxirane example in the manual. The picture I get in VMD is exactly as the manual however the only color for the surfaces is black. The "atoms" are colored correctly i.e. O is red. I have tried several other examples and the I only get black surfaces. The cub and VMD files are all in the same folder. Is it correct to use VMD command "Load visualization state" to load the VMD file?

Many thanks for your prompt help. The valence electron counts I get agree with Silvi's and Many thanks for your xlnt MultiWFN program
Of historical interest and probably well known is that I found no option 12 Assign ELF basin labels in 3.8 (dev) 2020 Sep 22 but option 12 is present in 3.8(dev) 2022 Sep 12.

In a paper in Inorganic Chemistry (doi:10.1021/ic011003v) Bernard Silvi gives TOPMOD valence electon counts on P in PCl5 and PMe5 of 7.13 and 9.12 respectively. Using MultiWFN I get values that hardly differ
for PCl5
Total localization index (atom index):
    1: 10.96822    2: 16.66868    3: 16.66544    4: 16.71506    5: 16.66478
    6: 16.71438
for PMe5
Total localization index (atom index):
    1: 10.55497    2:  4.49187    3:  4.55057    4:  4.47007    5:  4.55241
    6:  4.55770    7:  0.47068    8:  0.47492    9:  0.47038   10:  0.43251
   11:  0.43330   12:  0.42961   13:  0.43732   14:  0.42985   15:  0.43172
   16:  0.47378   17:  0.47449   18:  0.47112   19:  0.43297   20:  0.43119
   21:  0.43452

The lower index is on the more covalent PMe5 which is the opposite of what Silvi reported.
I used I used 17 1 1 3 4 2 y
I think that I must be making an error.
