Abstract
32 conformers of meta-substituted benzoic acids I and the corresponding anions II have been optimized with respect to all geometrical degrees of freedom by the title semiempirical MO approach. The calculated geometry characteristics are compared with some published data obtained by means of X-ray diffraction.
