RESUMO
Based on our modified classification of elemental species, a framework for automatic generation of multilevel Homodesmotic fragment-separation (mHDFS) reactions for chemical species was proposed. Combined the mHDFS framework with a database of heat of formation (HoF) and the calculated electronic structure data for the elemental mHD species, the mHDFS-HoF program was constructed in C/C++ language to calculate heat of formation for a species of interest on-the-fly. Using the electronic structure data calculated at CBS-QB3 level of theory for the elemental mHD species, applications and robustness of the code were discussed with several acyclic hydrocarbon systems including neutral and radical species. On-going work and extension to other systems were also discussed. The program and the supporting files can be freely downloaded at https://sites.google.com/view/mhdfs/. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
