โฆ Synopsis
The heats of formation for 19 molecules have been calculated with PM3 and AM1 semiempirical methods. The values obtained have been compared with experimental heats of formation. With PM3 and AM1 the average differences between calculated and experimental heats of formation are 8.45 and 12.34 kcal mol-' respectively. There are significant differences when large molecules are considered: this suggests that the parameterization should be done including larger molecules.

Various nitrogen clusters, N,, are selected for the present theoretical study. The number of nitrogen atoms chosen in this work varies from x = 8 to x = 32. PM3, which is known as one of the best semiempirical methods, is selected for the self-consistent molecular orbital calculations. The geometric
Recent observations in both experimental and theoretical chemistry indicate the importance of charge transfer on the energetics and charge distribution of biomolecular systems. Here we present a detailed analysis of hydrogen-bonded complexes to assess the quality of Hartree-Fock (HF) and semiempiric
