Abstract

Ab initio UHF wavefunctions for organic radicals have been obtained with different basis sets, before and after spin annihilation. It has been verified that the shapes of the electrostatic potential surfaces of these radicals are basis and spin contamination independent, at difference from hfs coupling constants.
