23. We have performed our fit by allowing the strength of the dipole dipole interaction to depend on the order of neighbor. We have used a data set of thirteen structures and obtained a mean square error between fitted and calculated energies of 1.5 meV per molecule, with a maximum error of 3 meV. The error in the equilibrium value of the θ angle is of the order of a few degrees.
