Quantitative Computational Thermochemistry of Transition Metal Species

Description: This article discusses quantitative computational thermochemistry of transition metal species. The correlation consistent Composite Approach (ccCA), which has been shown to achieve chemical accuracy (±1 kcal mol⁻¹) for a large benchmark set of main group and s-block metal compounds, is used to compute enthalpies of formation for a set of 17 3d transition metal species.
