I often find that such an issue can arise with the use of a continuum solvation model (such as PCM). To rectify this you can manually perturb the geometry of your input structure by a small amount. Alternatively, optimizing in cartesian coordinates is worth looking into should your computational resources allow for increased calculation times. If the first route does not help, try opt=cartesian in your input line. These are typically the methods that I try first when geometry optimization proves to be unsuccessful. Here is a previous CCL thread which deals with your error: http://server.ccl.net/chemistry/resources/messages/2010/05/23.001-dir/index.html Hope that is of some use, Luke Crawford School of Chemistry, University of St. Andrews, Fife, Scotland On Fri, Sep 7, 2012 at 1:51 PM, Zahrabatoul Mosapour kota.jaya88[#]gmail.com wrote: > > Sent to CCL by: "Zahrabatoul Mosapour" [kota.jaya88|-|gmail.com] > Hello everyone/everybody, > > I got error for my project from go9 .

Check the last geometry of your optimization cycle and most probably you will find at least one angle approaching 180 degree. If so, that's the problem. You can figure out that particular angle by looking at the out put file. From the last geometry, look for this part.

If its not a TS job, try freezing that angle in the input file.

That is, that the collection time is at least 5 times the decay time (T1). The latter you can measure in a separate simple experiment (see various NMR guides), but if the signal is a regular (non-exchanging) proton and you don't expect anything out of the ordinary, you may skip it and just use some very large collection time after each pulse (e.g. 10 seconds). Then you will be sure that all of the decay signal was collected, and the integrals truly represent relative populations. In fact, there is much more you can do with such a system, especially in a combination of experiment/DFT calculation. You can run EXSY (quantitative NOESY, basically) and obtain the rate of exchange between the tautomers - and then compare it to the calculated energy barriers for isomerization, to try and see any special effects in solution. Sorry for the self-promotion, but you can look at our paper on it: - David Eisenberg, Alexander S. Filatov, Edward A. Jackson, Mordecai Rabinovitz, Marina A. Petrukhina, Lawrence T.

If the energy reference is taken at the bottom of the well, the total partition function of that molecule is computed to be Qtot=0.101811D-15. However, if the energy reference is taken at the first vibrational level (V=0), the total partition function of that molecule is computed to be Qtot=0.125827D+19. Note that the rate constant does not depend on such references. Hope this would help.
