Notes:
The coupled-cluster method with single and double excitations (CCSD) is used to investigate the equilibrium configuration and vibrational frequencies of N3 and N-3. Good agreement with all experimental spectroscopic constants is obtained. Both species are found to have D∞h minima, with Re = 1.190A for the anion (experimental 1.1884A) and 1.183A for the radical (exp. 1.18115A). Vibrational frequencies are accurate to 20-40 cm-1. The calculated electron affinity of N3 is 2.50 eV.
