Abstract
The electronic structures, geometries, and vibration frequencies of the open-shell molybdenum(V) ion, [MoOCl(4)](-), have been calculated at the extended Hückel, semiempirical ZINDO/1, ZINDO/S, and PM3(tm), as well as ab initio and DFT theoretical levels. Electronic structure calculations suggest that the expected metal-fold orbital order can be satisfied only at the DFT level. The time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) approach has been used for the calculation of the vertical excitation energies in the UV-vis region with different basis sets, starting geometries, and exchange-correlation functionals. A good agreement between the predicted and the experimental electronic absorption and MCD spectra of the complex, [MoOCl(4)](-), was observed when the B3LYP and B3P86 exchange-correlation functionals were used with a full electron valence double-zeta with polarization basis set for the molybdenum and 6-311G(d) for all other atoms. Similar results were obtained when the LANL2DZ effective core potential for molybdenum atom and 6-31G(d) for all other atoms were used. The best absolute deviation of 0.13 and mean deviation of 0.01 eV were calculated for the bands in the UV-vis region by B3P86, while the results for the B3LYP exchange-correlation functional were less satisfactory. Compared to polarization functions, the inclusion of diffuse functions resulted in little improvement. The calculated excitations energies and charge-transfer band intensities are found to be sensitive to the Mo=O distance and O-Mo-Cl angle.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
