Scheme 2
I High-energy Isomers: Relative energies (E) are > 100 kJmol1 than the
global minimum 1 at CCSD(T)/cc-pVDZ level of theory.
Computational Methods
I Electronic structure calculations reported in this study were carried out
using CFOUR program [6].
I All calculations were done with a frozen-core approximation employing the
correlation-consistent polarzied valence double -basis set (cc-pVDZ).
I For C9H2 isomers, the cc-pVDZ basis set consists of 136 basis functions.
I For isomer 1, we had used a restricted open-shell Hartree-Fock (ROHF)
wave function as the ground electronic state is triplet. For the rest of the
isomers, the singlet ground state is more stable than the triplet and
therefore we had used an RHF wave function.
