On the Heats of Formation of Alkanes

A broad diverse test set of alkanes and cycloalkanes previously studied with MM4 calculations has had the heats of formation calculated by several different quantum mechanical methods: Hartree-Fock, MP2, and MP4, and also by B3LYP and B3LYP + dispersion energy. Overall, three computational methods (MM4, MP4, and B3LYP + dispersion) yield results that are generally of experimental accuracy. These results are analyzed and compared in some detail.
