- QM data were generated describing the single and
(if relevant) double and triple bond dissociation
for all B/N/O/H combinations. These data were used
to derive initial ReaxFF bond parameters, and all
calculations were performed using DFT with the B3LYP
functional and the Pople 6-311G** basis set.
- The training set was then extended with QM data
describing angular distortions in a set of small
AB-related (AB = H3N-BH3) molecules. These data
were used to derive the initial ReaxFF angular
parameters.
- The training set was extended with reaction barriers
for key reaction steps such as H2 release
from AB, dimerization of H2B-NH2 and reaction
energies associated with H2 release from AB and with AB
oxidation.
