摘要: Abstract The accuracy of anharmonic frequencies for semirigid free radicals obtained by a second order perturbative treatment based on CCSD(T) force fields is investigated the prototypical H 2 CN and F radicals. B3LYP computations show that most DFT errors are related to harmonic part field, so hybrid models in which computed coupled-cluster methods coupled contributions proper density functionals perform very well. This finding paves route toward computation accurate vibrational quite large unstable open-shell species current biological and/or technological interest.
