Abstract: | We present a number of molecular systems for which the average values 〈?2〉 before and after annihilation of the first spin contaminant in the wave function of the unrestricted Hartree-Fock method are anomalously large (they substantially exceed the expected value S (S + 1)). An example of such systems is N@C20, for the doublet state of which the 〈?2〉 values are equal to 4.2595 before and 13.1390 after annihilation, respectively (calculated by UHF/6-31G* method). We show that four, at the least, spin multiplets (S′ = S, S + 1, S + 2, S + 3) contribute comparatively to the wave function of such systems. The relations are derived allowing one to estimate the contributions of the highest multiplets basing on the average values of 〈?2〉 before and after annihilation of the first spin contaminant. |
