15. It needs to be emphasized that the structure inferred from the microwave experiment of Ref. and that obtained by computation cannot be compared in an entirely straightforward way. Microwave spectroscopy provides the so-called effective structure-which, apart from the case of diatomic molecules- lacks a precise geometrical definition, while quantum chemistry provides equilibrium structures that are in fact not experimental observables. The differences are usually small, and often ignored. However, in cases of large amplitude motion, these differences can become significant. Consequently, some degree of caution needs to exercised in interpreting the perceived quality of computational results for R(OO). See Ref. for a further discussion of this issue.
