Single point MP2 energies are included. A representative image is shown in Table 2a. The geometries of the open dimers are categorized most conveniently by two pseudo-dihedral angles ω and ω as shown in Table 2b. ω is defined by a dihedral angle spanning atoms --- and ω is defined by a dihedral angle spanning atoms ---. Although the direction of the arrow is irrelevant for the measure of the dihedral angle, it indicates the sign of the angle (clockwise = minus, counter-clockwise = plus). The caption below the energy values indicates the connectivity of transition states and ground states.
