Correlation consistent basis sets of double-ζ through quintuple-ζ quality for the alkali and alkaline earth metals Li, Be, Na, and Mg have been developed, including the valence (cc-pVnZ), augmented valence (aug-cc-pVnZ), core-valence (cc-pCVnZ), and weighted core-valence (cc-pwCVnZ) basis sets. The basis sets are also re-contracted for Douglas-Kroll scalar relativistic calculations and are found to be superior to non-relativistic basis sets in recovering scalar relativistic effects. CCSD(T) computations have been performed with these basis sets, and a series of properties have been examined, including atomic ionization potentials and electron affinities, optimized molecular geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, atomization energies, and enthalpies of formation for the molecules Li2, LiF, BeO, BeF, BeH2, BeF2, Na2, NaF, MgO, MgF, MgH2, and MgF2. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.
