✦ Synopsis


Results from pseudopotential calculations on S-hydroxyindole, tryptamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, 6-hydroxytryptamine and the imidazolium cation are compared to full ab-initio calculations. The localization of all molecular orbitals is found to be identical with the two methods. Orbital energies from the two methods are found to be lΓ―nearly correlated for all molecules: the slope is close to unity and the orbital energies from the pseudopotential calculation show a very slight and virtually constant shift to lower values. Electron density maps and molecular electrostatic potential maps calculated from the wavefunctions show that the charge distributions and molecular reactivity chamcteristia predicted by the two methods are nearly identical.

## Abstract __Ab initio__ calculations on the structure of pyrazole have been carried out at different levels of accuracy. At the Hartree‐Fock (HF) level, the performance of several basis sets, namely 3‐21G, 6‐31G, 6‐31G\*\*, and 6–311G\*\* was investigated. The influence of electron correlation ef
