PsiRESP is a package for calculating atomic partial charges from restrained and unrestrained electrostatic potential fits using Psi4. It is highly flexible, configurable, easy to use, and totally written in Python. It supports fitting to multiple orientations and conformers, as well as both intra-molecular and inter-molecular charge constraints for multi-molecule fits. It is written to correspond closely with existing tools such as the RESP ESP charge Derive (R.E.D.) tools.

As of now, the following implementations are well-tested to reproduce results from existing tools, primarily R.E.D.:

  • standard 2-stage RESP (convenience class: psiresp.configs.TwoStageRESP)
  • standard 1-stage RESP (convenience class: psiresp.configs.OneStageRESP)
  • standard unrestrained ESP (convenience class: psiresp.configs.ESP)

These implementations are not as well-tested:

  • ESP using HF/STO-3G (convenience class: psiresp.configs.WeinerESP) -- Psi4 seems to minimize to a relatively different geometry than GAMESS with STO-3G.
  • psiresp.configs.ATBRESP, mimicking the method used by the Automated Topology Builder is not tested at all. The published methods do not indicate the point density, moreover, the results generated seem to have changed since the original paper. Use at your own risk.
  • psiresp.configs.RESP2, as the methods are expensive

Installation

The recommended way to install PsiRESP is via anaconda, as the required dependencies are most easily installed distributed through conda.

For the fully featured version, install:

conda install -c conda-forge -c psi4 psiresp psi4

This will pull in all dependencies necessary for full functionality, including RDKit, Psi4 and QCFractal.

For minimal functionality, install:

conda install -c conda-forge psiresp-base

psiresp-base installs the package with minimal dependencies, so that only functionality that does not depend on RDKit, Psi4,or QCFractal is available.

The library can also be installed with minimal dependencies via Pypi:

pip install psiresp

Alternatively, to build from source:

  • clone this repository
  • create a new environment with dependencies
  • build the package
git clone https://github.com/lilyminium/psiresp.git
cd psiresp
conda env create -f devtools/conda-envs/environment.yaml
conda activate psiresp
python setup.py install

Please see the Installation docs for more information on installation and dependencies.

Example

Examples for PsiRESP are provided as tutorials both online and as downloadable Jupyter notebooks in the examples folder. More information can also be found in the documentation.

A minimal example is provided below, running a standard 2-stage restrained electrostatic potential fit (Bayly et al., 1993). This requires the full installation of psiresp, instead of the minimal psiresp-base, as it makes use of RDKit, Psi4 and QCFractal.

import psiresp
from psiresp.testing import FractalSnowflake
import qcfractal.interface as ptl

# set up server and client
server = FractalSnowflake()
client = ptl.FractalClient(server)

# set up molecule
dmso = psiresp.Molecule.from_smiles("CS(=O)C")

# set up job
job = psiresp.Job(molecules=[dmso])
charges = job.run(client=client)
