Abstract

Equilibrium geometries of five- and six-membered aromatic molecules have been calculated by applying the force method of the CNDO/2 procedure. The calculated and experimental geometries agree surprisingly well. The reliable values obtained for bond angles are of special importance in calculating molecular conformations.
