“… 56 Its performance has been extensively studied for various properties and systems, including cases in the same problem domain as the work presented here. 15 , 36 , 51 , 57 – 59 , 64 For instance, the barrier height of the iconic BPR rearrangement in Fe(CO) 5 was computed by Harris et al at the BP86 GGA level to be 2.1 kcal mol –1 , 36 which is in remarkably good agreement to the experimental activation energy of 1.6 ± 0.3 kcal mol –1 obtained via temperature-dependent two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy. 36 While no experimental data is available for the geometries of the HFe˙(CO) 4 isomers to benchmark the employed geometry optimization approach, it is known that DFT successfully predicts the geometries of the precursor H 2 Fe(CO) 4 ( ref.…”
