TLDR
In this article, Bader et al. presented an overview of the progress made in deriving one-electron properties, intermolecular interactions in terms of the Atoms in Molecule (AIM) approach (R.F.W.Bader, 1990), with special emphasis on improvements in charge density models and development of both experimental and theoretical techniques to interpret and analyse the nature of weak intermolescular interactions.Abstract:
Analysis of charge density distributions in molecular crystals has received considerable attention in the last decade both from high-resolution X-ray diffraction studies and from high-level theoretical calculations. An overview of the progress made in deriving one-electron properties, intermolecular interactions in terms of the Atoms in Molecule (AIM) approach (R.F.W. Bader. Atoms in Molecules-A Quantum Theory, Clarendon, Oxford (1990), R.F.W. Bader. J. Phys. Chem., A102, 7314 (1998)) is given with special emphasis on improvements in charge density models and development of both experimental and theoretical techniques to interpret and analyse the nature of weak intermolecular interactions. The significance of the derived results from the charge density of coumarin and its derivatives have been analysed to obtain insights into the nature of intermolecular C–H ··· O, C–H ··· π, π ··· π, C–H ··· S, and S ··· S contacts. The appearance of a ‘region of overlap’ to segregate hydrogen bonds from van der Waals in...read more

A Comprehensive Analysis of Hydrogen Bond Interactions Based on Local Vibrational Modes
TL;DR: In this paper, the intrinsic strength of the DH and AH interactions is determined utilizing the properties of a well-defined set of local, uncoupled vibrational modes, and the local mode stretching force constant ka(HA) provides a unique measure of bond strength for both covalently and electrostatically bonded complexes.

Local vibrational modes of the formic acid dimer – the strength of the double hydrogen bond
TL;DR: The local hydrogen bond (HB) stretching frequencies are at 676 cm−1 and by this 482 and 412 cm −1 higher compared to the measured symmetric and asymmetric HB stretching frequencies at 264 and 194 cm− 1 as mentioned in this paper.

Anisotropic displacement parameters for H atoms using an ONIOM approach.
TL;DR: An improved methodology is presented, incorporating information on internal vibrational motion from ab initio cluster calculations using the ONIOM approach implemented in GAUSSIAN03, and offers considerable promise in future charge-density studies of molecular crystals.

Density‐functional thermochemistry. III. The role of exact exchange
TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical exchange correlation functional with local spin density, gradient, and exact exchange terms was proposed. But this functional performed significantly better than previous functionals with gradient corrections only, and fits experimental atomization energies with an impressively small average absolute deviation of 2.4 kcal/mol.
