Density functional theory study of the vertical ionization energies of the valence and core electrons of cyclopentadiene, pyrrole, furan, and thiophene
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The procedure abbreviated as ΔPBE0(SAOP)/et-pVQZ, based on density functional theory, was developed recently for the calculation of vertical ionization energies of the valence electrons of organic and other small molecules and succeeded in giving results with an average absolute deviation of 0.21 eV from experiment for a collection of 115 reliable test cases of nonperhalo molecules. The objective of this work is to add a number of test cases to the benchmark database. We chose the set of molecules cyclo-C4H4X, with X = CH2, NH, O, and S, previously studied by many workers both experimentally and theoretically. The results show that the ΔPBE0(SAOP)/et-pVQZ procedure is not only as good as ab initio methods such as SAC-CI, OVGF, and ADC(3) in performance, but also handles inner valence ionized cations more efficiently. Although the core-electron binding energies of the titled molecules have not been as well investigated theoretically, we apply the methods we developed in recent years to calculate the binding energies of C1s, N1s, O1s, S1s, and S2p, which compare well with available experimental data.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
