The performance of effective core potentials adjusted at the Hartree-Fock level but applied in density functional calculations has been tested in a set of calculations using various basis sets and/or core potentials. Test molecules have been the first-row transition-metal carbonyls Cr(CO),, Fe(CO),,

Effective core potentials (ECPs) for first-row transition metals, constructed by including only 4s and 3d electrons in the valence space (Ar-core), show large errors in excitation energies. The origin of these errors and the influence of the electronic configurations taken as the starting point to g
A combination of ab initio effective-core potentials and sum-over-states density functional perturbation theory has been used to calculate 13C NMR chemical shifts in a series of transition-metal organometallic complexes, up to and including sixth-period species. Thus, for the first time both electro
The iodine clusters I2(1~-), i2(3Hu), 12 (25~) and 13 (~g), as well as excited states of I~-(2~+) and I3 (lEg), have been examined by means of different ab initio methods ranging from the SCF-HF to the QCISD(T) theoretical levels coupled with the relativistic effective core potential approach in a n
A series of ab initio electronic structure calculations have been performed on the (H3Si)20 molecule using a range of basis sets. The accuracy of these calculations was evaluated by comparison with several experimental measurements. These calculations support earlier results indicating that polariza
