✦ Synopsis


Many-body perturbation theory and quadratic configuration interaction methods have been used to calculate the energies of the minimum-energy and transition state structures of hydroquinone. These calculations lead to the predictions that the trans isomer is about 40 cm-' more stable than the cis isomer and that the height of the barrier for OH rotation is about 790 cm-'.

Many-body perturbation and quadratic configuration interaction calculations with several basis sets are used to estimate the height of the barrier for OH rotation in phenol. Our best estimate of the barrier height is 1076 cm-', about 130 cm-' smaller than the most recent experimental estimates. Dens

The heights of the rotational barn-ers of the diselenide bridge in dimethyl diselenide have been calculated at the Hartree-Fock level with the 3-21G basis set. The minimum in the rotational potential energy function occurs at a torsional angle of 85.64". The bam'ers were determined by complete geome
