Wong, C. Gonzalez, J. A. Pople, Gaussian 03, Revision B.04, Gaussian Inc., Pittsburgh PA, 2003. Enthalpies of formation and equilibrium geometries have been obtained from DFT calculations on the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory with Gaussian. The lowest energy conformer obtained after conformational analysis with Spartan using the MMFF force field was used as the starting geometry.
