摘要: Abstract The geometry and harmonic force field of benzene have been computed at the CCSD(T) level with basis sets spdf quality. Two out-of-plane modes, ω4 ω5 (and to a lesser extent ω17), exhibit pathological set dep superposition error. Using an atomic natural orbital (ANO) [4s3p2d1η/4s2p] quality, best available experimentally derived frequencies can be reproduced RMS error 6 cm−1 without any empirical corrections. We strongly recommend use ANO for accurate frequency calculations on unsaturated aromatic systems. Our estimate equilibrium is r e ( CC ) = 1.392(2), CH 1.081 A .
