41. In defining the Euler angles we use the convention of: Zare, R. N. Angular Momentum: Wiley: New York, 1988; pp 77-79. This convention differs from that employed in refs 11 and 12. Hence, the values of φ, θ, and ψ, quoted for fluorene-benzene and perylene-benzene in that reference differ from those quoted herein.
