Abstract
Steric and electronic structure of the methyl phenyl sulfide molecule was studied by nonempirical quantum-chemical methods. The calculations were performed by the B3LYP and MP2 procedures with account taken of electronic correlation using extended 6-311++G(3d,p) basis sets. The use of a balanced method and basis set allowed us to avoid discrepancy between the experimental and calculated data reported by other authors. The results confirmed coplanar orientation of the CÄSÄC fragment and the benzene ring, which follows from most experimental studies.
