Abstract
SCF computations using extended DZP and TZP basis sets have been performed to determine the structure of syn and anti formic acid and the transition state for rotation of the OH group. Effects of electron correlation were accounted for by means of CEPA calculations which predict the anti conformer to be 5 kcal/mol and the transition state 14.7 kcal/mol higher in energy than the syn conformer, with probable error estimates of 0.7 kcal/mol and 2 kcal/mol respectively.
