In this work, we propose the XO-PBC method, which combines the eXtended ONIOM method (XO) with the periodic boundary condition (PBC) for the description of molecular crystals. XO-PBC tries to embed a finite cluster cut out from the solid into the periodic environment, making it feasible to employ advanced molecular quantum chemistry methods, which are usually prohibitively expensive for direct PBC calculations. In particular, XO-PBC utilizes the results from force calculations to design the scheme to fragment the molecule when crysta
