Quantum chemical composite methods G3MP2B3, G3B3, G4MP2 and G4 have been used to calculate enthalpies of formation and gas phase basicities of the title compounds. Comparison of the results with the available experimental heats of formation values reveals correct agreement (to within ≈ 2 kJ/mol) with G3B3 and G4 methods. Systematic errors on the heats of formation of these aromatic molecules ar...
