81. [5c] is dissolved in MeTHF and is cooled to 77 K.
82. The orbital energy between occupied and empty orbitals is an arbitrary value at the Hartree-Fock level because the orbital energy of the empty orbitals is arbitrary. Therefore, it is meaningless to look at the orbital energy to obtain this value.
