## Abstract The performance of multiconfigurational second‐order perturbation techniques is established for the calculation of small magnetic couplings in heterobinuclear complexes. Whereas CASPT2 gives satisfactory results for relatively strong magnetic couplings, the method shows important deviat

Abstract
The second‐order multireference perturbation theory using an optimized partitioning, denoted as MROPT(2), is applied to calculations of various molecular properties—excitation energies, spectroscopic parameters, and potential energy curves—for five molecules: ethylene, butadiene, benzene, N~2~, and O~2~. The calculated results are compared with those obtained with second‐ and third‐order multireference perturbation theory using the traditional partitioning techniques. We also give results from computations using the multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) method. The presented results show very close resemblance between the new method and MRCI with renormalized Davidson correction. The accuracy of the new method is good and is comparable to that of second‐order multireference perturbation theory using Møller‐Plesset partitioning. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this paper a multireference constant denominator perturbation theory (CDPT) is developed to reduce incomplete basis set errors arising when solving the Schrödinger equation with a finite basis set. The advantage of this method is that very few basis functions are needed, and all calc
Using the optimized effective potential method in conjunction with the semianalytical approximation due to Krieger, Li, and Iafrate, we performed fully selfconsistent exact exchange-only density functional calculations for diatomic molecules with a fully numerical basis-set-free molecular code. The
