Gallium compounds, a possible problem for the G2 approaches
The G2 atomization energies of fluorine and oxygen containing Ga compounds are greatly in error. This arises from an inversion of the Ga 3d core orbital and the F 2s or O 2s valence orbitals. Adding the Ga 3d orbital to the correlation treatment or removing the F 2s orbitals from the correlation tre...

Zusammenfassung: | The G2 atomization energies of fluorine and oxygen containing Ga compounds are greatly in error. This arises from an inversion of the Ga 3d core orbital and the F 2s or O 2s valence orbitals. Adding the Ga 3d orbital to the correlation treatment or removing the F 2s orbitals from the correlation treatment are shown to eliminate the problem. Removing the O 2s orbital from the correlation treatment reduces the error, but it can still be more than 6 kcal/mol. It is concluded that the experimental atomization energy of GaF2 is too large. |
