Equilibrium geometries of methylene chloride dimers have been calculated using the local version of second order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory (LMP2), combined with the density fitting (DF) technique. Five distinct energy minimum bonded conformations have been resolved. The results have been compared to the intramolecular geometries and the intermolecular orientational correlations...
