Abstract
The radicals BH–3, CH3 and NH+3 are compared using ab initio UHF calculations after annihilation of the contaminating quartet spin state. Although there is a consistency in the trends predicted for the properties, these are not in accord with those determined experimentally. Although the out-of-plane zero-point energy vibration has a dominating influence, it is concluded that the environment must determine the physical properties of BH–3.
