E. Sicilia et al., DETERMINATION OF THE HEAT OF FORMATION OF OXYGEN-CONTAINING RADICALS USING DENSITY-FUNCTIONAL THEORY, Journal of molecular structure. Theochem, 116, 1994, pp. 13-16
The heat of formation of the CH3O2 radical was determined using the LC
GTO-NLSD method. The good agreement with experiment obtained for the m
ethylperoxy radical and previously determined values for several oxyge
n containing radicals indicates that the method is able correctly to r
eproduce the heats of formation and can be considered a promising tool
for the thermodynamic study of organic systems.
