Abstract

The application of the $r{^{\prime}}_{m}$ method for the determination of near-equilibrium molecular structures will be reviewed with particular emphasis upon organic polyatomic molecules. Several benchmark $parameters^{1}$ will be critically compared to the results of ab initio calculations using basis sets of increasing size and electron correlation treatments of varying sophistication. The prospects for application of the method to weakly bound molecules will be discussed.
