Abstract:
A short overview of the time-dependent density-functional theory (TD-DFT) based formalism to compute the optical rotation of chiral molecules is given. Some computational data obtained with a new TD-DFT linear response implementation in the NWChem program package are reported. A selection of available computational studies is reviewed where TD-DFT methods were used for the computation of optical rotation and optical rotatory dispersion of molecules.Keywords: TIME-DEPENDENT DENSITY FUNCTIONAL THEORY; OPTICAL ROTATION; OPTICAL ROTATORY DISPERSION; MOLECULAR RESPONSE PROPERTIES; DYNAMIC RESPONSE; DOUBLE PERTURBATION THEORY; CHIRALITY; ABSOLUTE CONFIGURATION
