32. 2, and the ONO angle to decrease with 3°, both observations in accordance with the occupation of an antibonding orbital by the excess electron. A corresponding decrease in the NO vibrational frequencies were observed due to the weakening of the NO bond. Finally, when geometry optimizations are carried out at the Hartree-Fock level of theory (no electron correlation), the NO bonds break, and the convergence criteria were not met.
