RESUMEN
Coronene (C(24)H(12)) is a flat polyaromatic hydrocarbon consisting of seven peri-fused benzene rings and attracts lots of attention as a fragment of graphene. Using a hybrid method of quantum chemistry and statistical mechanics called RISM-SCF, which is an alternative to QM/MM, the electronic structure and solvation structure of a coronene-transition metal complex were computed in a self-consistent manner. The binding of a ruthenium complex ([C(5)H(5)Ru](+)) was extensively studied, especially the changing of the solvation structure.
