Abstract
Heats of formation calculated by MINDO/3 are reported for 42 carbocations for which experimental heats of formation have been published. Errors associated with these calculations can be large, with an overall range of ยฑ13 kcal/mol. Correction of systematic errors in the MINDO/3 calculations by means of hydrocarbon models and isodesmic relationships results in a reduction in the range of errors to ยฑ8 kcal/mol. Comparison with experimental heats of reaction of hydride transfer equilibria minimizes experimental errors and gives an average absolute error of 2 kcal/mol with a range of ยฑ3 kcal/mol.
