Fig. 5. Literature examples of strain energy determinations compared to StrainViz analysis. (a) CPP strain determined by homodesmotic reactions.17 (b) Carbon nanobelt strain energy extrapolated from increasing size belts.41 (c) [2.2]paracyclophane strain and Bodwell's more strained analogue determined by isodesmotic reaction B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)43 and M06-2X/Def2TZVP42 respectively. Please see the ESI† for links to the 3D models.
