Abstract

Auxiliary basis sets for density fitting second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (DF-MP2) have been optimized for use with the triple-ζ nonrelativistic all-electron correlation consistent orbital basis sets, cc-pVTZ-NR and aug-cc-pVTZ-NR, for the 3d elements Sc–Zn. The relative error in using these auxiliary basis sets is found to be around four orders of magnitude smaller than that from utilizing triple-ζ orbital basis sets rather than corresponding quadruple-ζ basis sets, in calculation of the correlation energy for a test set of 54 small to medium sized transition metal complexes.
