Gold -- gold interactions were described by the quantum Sutton-Chen |
31 |
|
|
(QSC) model.\cite{Qi:1999ph} The hexane solvent is described by the |
32 |
|
|
TraPPE united atom model,\cite{TraPPE-UA.alkanes} where sites are |
33 |
|
|
located at the carbon centers for alkyl groups. Bonding interactions |
34 |
|
|
were used for intra-molecular sites closer than 3 bonds. Effective |
35 |
|
|
Lennard-Jones potentials were used for non-bonded interactions. |
36 |
|
|
|
37 |
|
|
The TraPPE-UA force field includes parameters for thiol |
38 |
|
|
molecules\cite{TraPPE-UA.thiols} which were used for the |
39 |
|
|
alkanethiolate molecules in our simulations. To derive suitable |
40 |
|
|
parameters for butanethiolate adsorbed on Au(111) surfaces, we adopted |
41 |
|
|
the S parameters from Luedtke and Landman\cite{landman:1998} and |
42 |
|
|
modified the parameters for the CTS atom to maintain charge neutrality |
43 |
|
|
in the molecule. |
44 |
|
|
|
45 |
|
|
To describe the interactions between metal (Au) and non-metal atoms, |
46 |
|
|
potential energy terms were adapted from an adsorption study of alkyl |
47 |
|
|
thiols on gold surfaces by Vlugt, \textit{et |
48 |
|
|
al.}\cite{vlugt:cpc2007154} They fit an effective pair-wise |
49 |
|
|
Lennard-Jones form of potential parameters for the interaction between |
50 |
|
|
Au and pseudo-atoms CH$_x$ and S based on a well-established and |
51 |
|
|
widely-used effective potential of Hautman and Klein for the Au(111) |
52 |
|
|
surface.\cite{hautman:4994} |

Parameters not found in the TraPPE-UA force field for the |
74 |
|
|
intramolecular interactions of the conjugated and the penultimate |
75 |
|
|
alkenethiolate ligands were calculated using constrained geometry |
76 |
|
|
scans using the B3LYP functional~\cite{Becke:1993kq,Lee:1988qf} and |
77 |
|
|
the 6-31G(d,p) basis set. Structures were scanned starting at the |
78 |
|
|
minimum energy gas phase structure for small ($C_4$) ligands. Only |
79 |
|
|
one degree of freedom was constrained for any given scan -- all other |
80 |
|
|
atoms were allowed to minimize subject to that constraint. The |
81 |
|
|
resulting potential energy surfaces were fit to a harmonic potential |
82 |
|
|
for the bond stretching, |
83 |
|
|
\begin{equation} |
84 |
|
|
V_\mathrm{bond} = \frac{k_\mathrm{bond}}{2} \left( r - r_0 \right)^2, |
85 |

\end{equation} |
86 |
|
|
and angle bending potentials, |
87 |
|
|
\begin{equation} |
88 |
|
|
V_\mathrm{bend} = \frac{k_\mathrm{bend}}{2} \left(\theta - \theta_0\right)^2. |
89 |
|
|
\end{equation} |
90 |
|
|
Torsional potentials were fit to the TraPPE torsional function, |
91 |
|
|
\begin{equation} |
92 |
|
|
V_\mathrm{tor} = c_0 + c_1 \left(1 + \cos\phi \right) + c_2 \left(1 - \cos 2\phi \right) + c_3 \left(1 + \cos 3 \phi \right). |

The fit values for the bond, bend, and torsional parameters were in |
98 |
|
|
relatively good agreement with similar parameters already present in |
