45. The (10,9) active space is obtained from the (12,10) active space described in the text by removing the doubly occupied lone pair orbital of the N atom of the broken C-N bond.
46. The (4,4) active space consists of two radical orbitals (centered at the C and N atoms of the broken C-N bond) and σ, σ* orbitals of the intact C-N bond.
