Abstract
Calculations of reorientation barrier heights and phonon frequencies in molecular crystals have been carried out, using interaction potential between nonbonded atoms, in the frame of the rigid-body approximation. Results obtained with various interaction parameters, unit cell parameters and molecular models are compared with available experimental data from RMN, IR and Raman spectra of crystalline benzene. Results obtained for hexamethylbenzene are also compared with experimental data.
