description

Abstract Full configuration-interaction calculations of the indirect spin–spin coupling constant of the BH molecule have been carried out in order to investigate the performance of various coupled-cluster (CC) methods in the treatment of electron-correlation effects, while the corresponding basis set convergence is analyzed in CC singles and doubles calculations. Assuming additivity of correlation and basis set effects, a theoretical estimate of 50.67 Hz is obtained for the 11 B 1 H spin–spin coupling constant.
