Chapter 32. Natural Bond Orbital Analysis (NBO)

Table of Contents

Input File (properties/prop_nbo.dat):
Output File (properties/prop_nbo.out):

Keyword NBO turns on the natural bond orbital analsys (NBO version 3.0 by E. D. Glendening, A. E. Reed, J. E. Carpenter). The primary purpose is to determine the natural bond orbitals for a molecule and then use them to analyze various properties of the molecule.

The example provided here is methylamine with all of the main types of analysis turned on (NBO=3). Each data section is noted and described.

Keyword NBO activates the use of the natural bond orbital analysis. By default (equivalent to NBO = 2), natural population analysis (NPA) and natural bond orbitals (NBO) analysis will be performed. For the same of completeness, this job uses NBO = 3, which includes the natural localized molecular orbital (NLMO) analysis and the dipole moment analysis.

1

Main header for the NBO data section.

2

List of NBO options and parameters used during the NBO analysis. The NBO options correspond to commands in the original NBO documentation and are not found in the Ampac keyword line. NBO=n determines the level of printing and corresponding the method keywords listed here. The NBO parameters are fixed to the default values and cannot be altered within AMPAC.

3

First table of results for natural population analysis. The number of electrons and the energy of each orbital. (These correspond to the diagonal elements of the density and Fock matrices respectively.) The results presented here are for the total density. For UHF, this table will appear two more times: the alpha and beta spin density cases. NOTE: for jobs with ROHF or C.I. (direct and indirect), the energies will not be presented.

4

Second table of results for natural population analysis. The natural electron distribution is shown in terms of individual atoms. The "natural charge" column represnts the NBO charges. (NOTE: since the semi-empirical basis is implicitly orthonormal, these charges are equivalent to Coulson charges.)

5

Third table of results for natural population analysis. natural populations are summarized as an effective valence electron configuration ("natural electron configuration") for each atom.

6

This section provides details for the search for an NBO natural Lewis structure. If the NBO job fails, search this section for possible clues as to what went wrong. For RHF and ROHF, this and the subsequent tables are the results for the total density. For UHF, these tables will appear twice, one for the alpha and again for beta spin density.

7

Detailed breakdown of the Lewis and non-Lewis occupancies into core, valence, and Rydberg shell contributions. This information may be helpful in judging the appropriateness of the natural Lewis structure.

8

Main listing of NBOs, displaying the form and occupancy of the complete set of NBOs that span the input AO space.

9

Summary the angular properties of the natural hybrid orbitals. There are three sets of 'direction' information corresponding to the bond axis, the hybrid orbital on the first atom, and the hybrid orbital on the second atom respectively. "Theta" and "phi" are the polar and azimuthal angles of the p-component in the molecular coordinate system. "Dev" is the deviation (angle between the bond axis and hybrid orbital on each atom).

10

Summary of the second-order perturbative estimates of 'donor-acceptor' (bond-antibond) interactions in the NBO basis. NOTE: this analysis will not be performed for jobs with ROHF or C.I. .

11

Summary of the principal NBOs, showing the occupancy, orbital energy, and the qualitative pattern of delocalization interactions associated with each. This table allows one to quickly identify the principal delocalizing acceptor orbitals associated with each donor NBO, and their topological relationship to this NBO, i.e., whether attached to the same atom (geminal, "g"), to an adjacent bonded atom (vicinal, "v"), or to a more remote ("r") site. NOTE: for jobs with ROHF or C.I. (direct and indirect), the energies and delocalizations will not be presented.

12

Main summary for the NLMO analysis. The table shows the form and occupancy of the complete set of NLMOs that span the input AO space.

13

Description of the molecular dipole moment in both the NBO and NLMO bases.
