<b>Singlet-triplet gap studies on aryl-cyclopentadienylidenes: indirect electronic effects</b>

Energy gaps, ΔX<sub>S–t</sub> (X = E, H and G) (∆X<sub>S–t</sub> = X(singlet)-X(triplet)) between singlet (s) and triplet (t) states of aryl substituted cyclopentadienylidenes, Ar-C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>3</sub>C, were calculated at B3LYP/6-311++G**. Electr...
