be found for small basis sets, in some cases extending the basis sets increases the
deviations significantly. However, these deviations may also arise from the proper-
ties of the Pople-basis sets (see Tables
1
and
4
).
In summary, these investigations showed that a reliable and consistent determina-
tion of topological parameters of the ED is still problematic for polar bonds indepen-
dent of whether they are determined experimentally or with theoretical approaches.
The computed data depend strongly on the level of theory, while uncertainties within
