38. [38] The HOMOs of the non-relativistic calculations are indicated by a vertical arrow representing the single unpaired electron. The arrow notation implies a direction of electron spin, arrows pointing up are usually taken to represent α spin electrons and those pointing down β spin electrons. Such a representation is conceptually incorrect for the HOMOs of the relativistic calculations as electron spin is incorporated in the symmetry labels of the orbitals. The relativistic HOMOs are therefore represented by a dashed horizontal line.
