Abstract
The reference interaction site model self-consistent field (RISM-SCF) method is a combined method of the electronic structure theory of molecules and the integral equation theory of molecular liquids. The RISM-SCF method based on the Dirac-Hartree-Fock wave function, recently proposed, is applied to a chemical reaction, specifically, a Menshutkin reaction in aqueous solution. The Helmholtz energy profile along the reaction coordinate is calculated and the characteristics of the reaction are discussed based on energy component analysis.
