Gold -- gold interactions were described by the quantum Sutton-Chen |
38 |
|
|
(QSC) model.\cite{Qi:1999ph} The hexane solvent is described by the |
39 |
|
|
TraPPE united atom model,\cite{TraPPE-UA.alkanes} where sites are |
40 |
|
|
located at the carbon centers for alkyl groups. Bonding interactions |
41 |
|
|
were used for intra-molecular sites closer than 3 bonds. Effective |
42 |
|
|
Lennard-Jones potentials were used for non-bonded interactions. |

The TraPPE-UA force field includes parameters for thiol |
65 |
|
|
molecules\cite{TraPPE-UA.thiols} which were used for the |
66 |
|
|
alkanethiolate molecules in our simulations. To derive suitable |
67 |
|
|
parameters for butanethiolate adsorbed on Au(111) surfaces, we adopted |
68 |
|
|
the S parameters from Luedtke and Landman\cite{landman:1998} and |
69 |
|
|
modified the parameters for the CTS atom to maintain charge neutrality |
70 |
|
|
in the molecule. |

Bonds are typically rigid in TraPPE-UA, so although we used |
73 |
|
|
equilibrium bond distances from TraPPE-UA, for flexible bonds, we |
74 |
|
|
adapted bond stretching spring constants from the OPLS-AA force |
75 |
|

field.\cite{Jorgensen:1996sf} |

To describe the interactions between metal (Au) and non-metal atoms, |
104 |
|
|
potential energy terms were adapted from an adsorption study of alkyl |
105 |
|
|
thiols on gold surfaces by Vlugt, \textit{et |
106 |
|
|
al.}\cite{vlugt:cpc2007154} They fit an effective pair-wise |
107 |
|
|
Lennard-Jones form of potential parameters for the interaction between |
108 |
|
|
Au and pseudo-atoms CH$_x$ and S based on a well-established and |
109 |
|
|
widely-used effective potential of Hautman and Klein for the Au(111) |
110 |
|
|
surface.\cite{hautman:4994} |

|
Parameters not found in the TraPPE-UA force field for the |
113 |
|
|
intramolecular interactions of the conjugated and the penultimate |
114 |
|
|
alkenethiolate ligands were calculated using constrained geometry |
115 |
|
|
scans using the B3LYP functional~\cite{Becke:1993kq,Lee:1988qf} and |
116 |
|
|
the 6-31G(d,p) basis set. Structures were scanned starting at the |
117 |
|
|
minimum energy gas phase structure for small ($C_4$) ligands. Only |
118 |
|
|
one degree of freedom was constrained for any given scan -- all other |
119 |
|
|
atoms were allowed to minimize subject to that constraint. The |
120 |
|
|
resulting potential energy surfaces were fit to a harmonic potential |
121 |
|
|
for the bond stretching, |
122 |
|
|
\begin{equation} |
123 |
|
|
V_\mathrm{bond} = \frac{k_\mathrm{bond}}{2} \left( r - r_0 \right)^2, |
124 |
|
|
\end{equation} |
125 |
|
|
and angle bending potentials, |
126 |
|
|
\begin{equation} |
127 |
|
|
V_\mathrm{bend} = \frac{k_\mathrm{bend}}{2} \left(\theta - \theta_0\right)^2. |
128 |
|
|
\end{equation} |
129 |
|
|
Torsional potentials were fit to the TraPPE torsional function, |
130 |
|
|
\begin{equation} |
131 |
|
|
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). |

For the penultimate thiolate ligands, the model molecule used was |
135 |
|
|
2-Butene-1-thiol, for which one bend angle (\ce{S-CH2-CHene}) was |
136 |
|
|
scanned to fit an equilibrium angle and force constant, as well as one |
137 |
|
|
torsion (\ce{S-CH2-CHene-CHene}). The parameters for these two |
138 |
|
|
potentials also served as model for the longer conjugated thiolate |
139 |
|
|
ligands which require bend angle parameters for (\ce{S-CH2-CHar}) and |
140 |
|
|
torsion parameters for (\ce{S-CH2-CHar-CHar}). |

For the $C_4$ conjugated thiolate ligands, the model molecule for the |
143 |
|
|
quantum mechanical calculations was 1,3-Butadiene-1-thiol. This |
144 |
|
|
ligand required fitting one bond (\ce{S-CHar}), and one bend angle |
145 |
|
|
(\ce{S-CHar-CHar}). |
146 |

The geometries of the model molecules were optimized prior to |
148 |
|
|
performing the constrained angle scans, and the fit values for the |
149 |
|
|
bond, bend, and torsional parameters were in relatively good agreement |
150 |
|
|
with similar parameters already present in TraPPE. |
