62. The Wood-Boring quasirelativistic pseudopotential for a neutral atom (MWB28) was employed, which includes 28 electrons in the Ag effective core potential (ECP), in conjunction with the optimized valence basis set (8s7p6d/6s5p3d) to describe the 19 valence electrons. A 6-3111+G(3df) basis set was employed to describe the oxygen atom.
