Abstract

The study by DFT [B3LYP/6-311G(2df,p)] method of structural and energy characteristics peculiar to [n]-prismanes and [n]-asteranes demonstrated that prismanes of n = 3–10 and asteranes of n = 3–7 possessed a stable structure of Dnh-symmetry; the Dnh-geometry was distorted in the subsequent terms of the series.
