Abstract: | A computational study of the possible β-D-glucopyranose conformations and energies has been performed using Density Functional Theory (DFT). Three different density functionals have been used; PBE, BLYP and HCTH. The calculations have been performed using the metadynamics method combined with Car-Parrinello Molecular Dynamics (CPMD). The results obtained show that the most stable conformation of β-D-glucopyranose corresponds to a chair conformation, 4C1, with B3,O as the second most stable conformation. The most reliable results are obtained using the PBE functional |
