45. The geometries of monomers were determined by the cc-pVTZ/ RI-MP2 gradient optimization in the Turbomole v.5.6 package (R. Ahlrichs, M. Bär, M. Häser, H. Horn, C. Kölmel, Chem. Phys. Lett. 1989, 162, 165); the optimized geometries of monomers were kept frozen throughout the scans. Interaction energies were computed with aug-cc-pVDZ basis set at RI-MP2 level in Turbomole v.5.6 and are BSSE-corrected. Only the face-to-face geometry was examined, thus keeping the planes of the monomers parallel throughout the scans.
