18. 3h example, consider a (hypothetical) reaction inducing this change in symmetry, that is, an isomerization or a trisubstituion reaction of benzene (reactant A). The change in rotational entropy due to the change in the symmetry numbers is R ln(6/12) = -5.76 J/(K·mol). That is, in eq V, the entropic symmetry term adds (twice negative) to the total rotational entropy, reflecting the conversion to a lower symmetry (A to B).

52. The structure for symmetric proton position was taken as the average of those determined by X-ray diffraction in refs 50 and 51. In the case of the asymmetric position, the structures of refs 52 and 53 were averaged. In all cases, the distances N-H-N computed by ab initio quantum chemical methods were taken into account as reported in ref 54.
