Hyperconjugation in Carbocations, a BLW Study with DFT approximation

The geometry of ethyl cation is discussed with a high level optimization (CCSD/cc-pvQZ), and the hyperconjugation effect in carbocations is evaluated at the B3LYP/6-311G(d) level. The Block Localized Wavefunction (BLW) method is used for all evaluations of the hyperconjugation, considered as the ene...
