An implementation of the coupled cluster (CC) singles, doubles, and a hybrid treatment of connected triples [denoted as CCSD(T)-h], based on the unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) reference, is presented. Based on the spin-integrated formulation, we have developed a computer program to achieve the automatic derivation and implementation of the CCSD(T)-h approach. The CCSD(T)-h approach computationally scales as the seventh power of the system size, and is affordable for many medium-sized systems. The present approach has been applied to study the equilibrium geometries and harmonic vibrational frequencies in a number of open-shell diatomic molecules and bond breaking potential energy profiles in several open-shell molecules, including CH3, NH2, and SiH2. For all systems under study, the overall performance of the UHF-based CCSD(T)-h approach is very close to that of the corresponding CCSDT (CC singles, doubles, and triples), and much better than that of the UHF-based CCSD(T) (CC singles, doubles, and perturbative triples).
