Example: QTAIM Aromaticity indices

Download Aromaticity.run

#! /bin/sh


# The aromaticity indices Iring and MCI can be calculated with ADF. Calculation
# of these aromaticity indices invokes the QTAIM analysis automatically and uses
# its results so all accuracy considerations for the QTAIM key are also valid
# here. The rings should be specified using the AROMATICITY input block, one
# line per ring. The atoms must be listed in the order they are connected in the
# ring. Note that although a partial QTAIM analysis is performed, its results 
# are not printed to the output file.
# Relativistic hamiltonian cannot be used when computing AROMATICITY.
