aKey: BDE – adiabatic bond dissociation energy; VDE – vertical detachment energy; and ADE – adiabatic detachment energy. Counterpoise-corrected values are in parentheses.

bThis method provides a reasonable treatment of dispersion interactions (ref. 62).

cωB97XD//GEN1 geometry. All calculated values include zero-point energy corrections.
