5. The molecular volumes discussed above (Table 3) have been calculated using
semiempirical PM3 calculations. The volume of an individual atom or G group
(where G¼Cl, CH3 or CF3) bonded to a phenyl ring was estimated as the dif-
ference between the molecular volume of Ph–G (Ph¼phenyl) and the mole-
cular volume of benzene. Semiempirical optimizations and the calculation of
the molecular volumes of CPK-type models were performed using SPARTAN
’04 (Wavefunction, 18401 Von Karman Suite 370, Irvine, CA 92612, USA,
Version 1.0.0).
