85. Optimized structures of reactants, TSs, and products were characterized by analytical frequency calculations, and all total electronic energies of these species were included in the zero-point energy corrections at the same level. The calculated number of imaginary frequencies (NImag) determine whether the optimized structures are energy minima (NImag=0) or TSs (NImag=1) along the reaction pathway.
