“…The optimized μ parameters of LC‐BLYP with 6‐31G(d,p), 6‐311G(d,p), 6–31+G(d,p), and 6–311+G(d,p) in 12‐CNB were 0.20, 0.19, 0.18, and 0.18, respectively, which shows that the μ parameter decreases when basis set becomes larger, and those of LC‐BLYP with 6–311+G(d,p) in 16‐CNB and 24‐CNB were 0.18 and 0.19, respectively (Figure 2). The optimized μ parameter is reported to, generally, decrease as the size of system becomes larger 51–53 , but contrary to all expectations it is observed that optimized μ values in CNB system are increased depending on the system size. Moreover, all the optimized μ parameters obtained in the gas‐phase were applied to PCM calculations with dichloromethane as the same value.…”
