UB1LYP as an accurate and efficient method for computing the isotropic hyperfine tensor components of neutral bicyclic and tricyclic dithiazole radicals

摘要

The isotropic hyperfine tensor components (a(iso)) of six neutral mono-, bi- and tricyclic dithiazole radicals are computed using the UB1LYP hybrid density functional method. They are in very good quantitative agreement with those determined experimentally by EPR spectroscopy (< 0.47 G). Thus, for the first time, a(iso) of large bi- and tricyclic hetero-radicals that contain sulfur linked to nitrogen are accurately calculated without resorting to post-Hartree-Fock techniques. As predicted, the computed hyperfine tensors show that these C-2v molecules have no magnetically equivalent atoms [1]. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. [References: 32]
