Obtaining HOMO-LUMO Gap From .mol File #1060
-
I will preface this by saying that I have no experience with computational chemistry. I am interested in obtaining the HOMO-LUMO gap for molecules in the PubChemQC dataset. I have been looking at the .mol files which have B3LYP 6-31G(d) gamess geometry optimization, and not much additional information. I can successfully read the file with ccread, but I have been unable to determine how to proceed from there. From the documentation it looked like CDA was what I may need, but I am not sure what the fragments are, or how to obtain them. Note, here is the contents for a typical .mol file for reference if it is useful. |
