Maple Quantum Chemistry Toolbox 2024
The Maple Quantum Chemistry Toolbox provides a powerful, parallel platform for quantum chemistry calculations that directly integrates as an add-on package into the Maple 2024 environment. It is optimized for both cutting-edge research as well as education. The Toolbox includes density functional theory and wave function methods as well as advanced two-electron reduced density matrix (2-RDM) theories. It is available on Windows, MacOS, and Linux. Highlights include:
- Density functional and ab initio methods
- State-of-the-art 2-RDM methods
- Excited-state spectra and properties
- Publication-quality plots and animations
- 5000+ Maple commands
- Key algorithms coded in fast C and Fortran
- Worksheet, command-line, and applet interfaces
- Help pages with examples and tutorials
- Curricula and lessons for chemistry and physics
Maple 2024 is a leading scientific environment for mathematics, engineering, and science—and now chemistry. To learn more about the Toolbox, contact us. Students can purchase the Quantum Chemistry Toolbox 2024 Student Edition (USD 59) for less than a paperback textbook.

Interfaces
The Package can be used from the following Maple interfaces:
- Worksheet interface
- Document interface
- Command-line interface
- Maple Applet (Maplet) interface
- Jupyter notebook interface
The worksheet, document, or Jupyter-notebook interfaces allow users to perform computations in a notebook environment with a mixture of computations, headers and text, plots, animations, and pictures. The command-line interface provides a powerful scripting environment for the most demanding computations on a workstation or cluster. Plus there is a Maple applet (Maplet) interface for rapid definition, computation, and analysis of molecules and their properties. The figure to the right shows the Maplet interface being applied to compute the ground-state energy of 1,3-dibromobenzene by density functional theory (DFT) in a 6-31g basis set.
