Heats of formation calculated with the G2(MP2), G2(MP2,SVP), CBS-Q, an
d CBS-q methods for 46 aliphatic nitrogen- and oxygen-containing molec
ules and ions with up to three carbon atoms are compared with experime
ntal results and with each other. The values obtained theoretically fo
r aliphatic amine radical cations and immonium ions are uniformly high
er than the experimental values, in a few cases by more than 20 kJ mol
(-1), possibly suggesting a systematic problem; the results for oxygen
-containing ions do not show a similar trend. The heats of formation o
btained with the G2(MP2) and G2(MP2,SVP) procedures differ only little
, whereas the results based on the CBS-Q energies for closed-shell ion
s are consistently higher than those based on the G2(MP2) energies. He
ats of formation based on the CBS-q energies for ions are higher than
those obtained with the other composite methods. (C) 1997 Elsevier Sci
