I have been using MP2 theory in Gaussian 03 (version D.02) to generate my wavefunction files for AIM2000 (using "output=wfn density=current 6d" in my C1 symmetry systems). I am aware that the virial at the bottom of the file is not correct and have been manually altering the viral to be: absolute value[Emp2/KE] + 1 It was recently brought to my attention that there might be another problem with generating Gaussian wavefunction files. However, I can't find out what this problem is, or how to fix it. All I could find was someone who mentioned on the CCL that people should "Be careful if you are writing wave functions with Gaussian 03, version D. The wfn will be written using the wrong coordinates, causing strange and incorrect AIM calculations. Any earlier versions do not have this problem, and I'm not sure if it's been fixed in G03 version E." So, I am wondering what I need to do to 'fix' my potentially 'wrong coordinates'. For example, in one of my files, the input orientation in the .log file is: 1 7 0 1.982754 1.730747 -1.023883 2 6 0 2.083397 2.217275 0.283721 3 7 0 1.841393 1.274008 1.234197 4 6 0 1.563723 0.117014 0.464389 5 6 0 1.173736 -1.197845 0.851512 6 7 0 1.093891 -1.580063 2.178050 7 7 0 0.876072 -2.121221 -0.119021 8 6 0 1.024242 -1.728791 -1.443045 9 7 0 1.393923 -0.514491 -1.947955 10 6 0 1.637650 0.375572 -0.929736 11 6 0 -3.333502 -0.639504 -0.532913 12 7 0 -2.015281 -0.492090 -0.076145 13 6 0 -3.982394 0.557109 -0.195411 14 6 0 -1.912358 0.769474 0.509144 15 7 0 -3.093901 1.444393 0.458397 16 1 0 2.338195 3.260797 0.496708 17 1 0 0.577758 -2.439411 2.372243 18 1 0 1.047254 -0.835460 2.875613 19 1 0 0.792876 -2.508075 -2.184238 20 1 0 2.096468 2.259231 -1.891620 21 1 0 -1.257125 -1.174880 -0.176791 22 1 0 -5.023130 0.836363 -0.378914 23 1 0 -0.982716 1.140679 0.949767 24 1 0 -3.668504 -1.550051 -1.034201 The standard orientation is: 1 7 0 1.982754 1.730747 -1.023883 2 6 0 2.083397 2.217275 0.283721 3 7 0 1.841393 1.274008 1.234197 4 6 0 1.563723 0.117014 0.464389 5 6 0 1.173736 -1.197845 0.851512 6 7 0 1.093891 -1.580063 2.178050 7 7 0 0.876072 -2.121221 -0.119021 8 6 0 1.024242 -1.728791 -1.443045 9 7 0 1.393923 -0.514491 -1.947955 10 6 0 1.637650 0.375572 -0.929736 11 6 0 -3.333502 -0.639504 -0.532913 12 7 0 -2.015281 -0.492090 -0.076145 13 6 0 -3.982394 0.557109 -0.195411 14 6 0 -1.912358 0.769474 0.509144 15 7 0 -3.093901 1.444393 0.458397 16 1 0 2.338195 3.260797 0.496708 17 1 0 0.577758 -2.439411 2.372243 18 1 0 1.047254 -0.835460 2.875613 19 1 0 0.792876 -2.508075 -2.184238 20 1 0 2.096468 2.259231 -1.891620 21 1 0 -1.257125 -1.174880 -0.176791 22 1 0 -5.023130 0.836363 -0.378914 23 1 0 -0.982716 1.140679 0.949767 24 1 0 -3.668504 -1.550051 -1.034201 But, at the top of the .wfn file (generated from the same .log output calculation): Histidine edge interacting with Adenine face, 'fully opt GAUSSIAN 243 MOL ORBITALS 456 PRIMITIVES 24 NUCLEI N 1 (CENTRE 1) 3.74686205 3.27063784 -1.93485846 CHARGE = 7.0 C 2 (CENTRE 2) 3.93704976 4.19004251 0.53615499 CHARGE = 6.0 N 3 (CENTRE 3) 3.47972847 2.40752621 2.33229433 CHARGE = 7.0 C 4 (CENTRE 4) 2.95500822 0.22112441 0.87756803 CHARGE = 6.0 C 5 (CENTRE 5) 2.21803959 -2.26359900 1.60912448 CHARGE = 6.0 N 6 (CENTRE 6) 2.06715441 -2.98588634 4.11591801 CHARGE = 7.0 N 7 (CENTRE 7) 1.65553615 -4.00852676 -0.22491709 CHARGE = 7.0 C 8 (CENTRE 8) 1.93553687 -3.26694153 -2.72695985 CHARGE = 6.0 N 9 (CENTRE 9) 2.63413272 -0.97224709 -3.68110147 CHARGE = 7.0 C 10 (CENTRE 10) 3.09471000 0.70972822 -1.75694642 CHARGE = 6.0 C 11 (CENTRE 11) -6.29940585 -1.20848742 -1.00705962 CHARGE = 6.0 N 12 (CENTRE 12) -3.80832917 -0.92991533 -0.14389320 CHARGE = 7.0 C 13 (CENTRE 13) -7.52563402 1.05278344 -0.36927327 CHARGE = 6.0 C 14 (CENTRE 14) -3.61383289 1.45409513 0.96214272 CHARGE = 6.0 N 15 (CENTRE 15) -5.84662558 2.72950720 0.86624479 CHARGE = 7.0 H 16 (CENTRE 16) 4.41854820 6.16201331 0.93864209 CHARGE = 1.0 H 17 (CENTRE 17) 1.09180439 -4.60981872 4.48288959 CHARGE = 1.0 H 18 (CENTRE 18) 1.97902325 -1.57879060 5.43412104 CHARGE = 1.0 H 19 (CENTRE 19) 1.49831850 -4.73957487 -4.12761163 CHARGE = 1.0 H 20 (CENTRE 20) 3.96175037 4.26932786 -3.57464375 CHARGE = 1.0 H 21 (CENTRE 21) -2.37562197 -2.22020144 -0.33408657 CHARGE = 1.0 H 22 (CENTRE 22) -9.49234004 1.58049702 -0.71604369 CHARGE = 1.0 H 23 (CENTRE 23) -1.85706411 2.15557092 1.79479952 CHARGE = 1.0 H 24 (CENTRE 24) -6.93246788 -2.92917188 -1.95435666 CHARGE = 1.0 So, I am wondering where these coordinates in the .wfn file came from, and what I can do to fix my .wfn files.

Diaconu" [cvdiaconu-x-rice.edu] I admit it is a bit weird, but here's how you get hexagonal crystal structures in GaussView: 1) Start a new file 2) right click on the empty window and select "Edit -> PBC" you should get the PBC editor window with 5 tabs: "Symmetry", "Cell", "View", "Contents" and "Reduce" 3) Go to the "Cell" tab and set angle "Gamma" to 120 4) Go back to the "Symmetry" tab: now you can select "Hexagonal" for "Minimum Lattice System" I hope this is clear enough, and that it helps.

I don't know what the correct units for a WFN file are, but the assigned atomic charges will either be correct, or VERY wrong, so it should be easy to check.

I am aware that the virial at the bottom of the file is not correct and have been manually altering the viral to be: absolute value[Emp2/KE] + 1 | | It was recently brought to my attention that there might be another problem with generating Gaussian wavefunction files. However, I can't find out what this problem is, or how to fix it. All I could find was someone who mentioned on the CCL that people should "Be careful if you are writing wave functions with Gaussian 03, version D. The wfn will be written using the wrong coordinates, causing strange and incorrect AIM calculations. Any earlier versions do not have this problem, and I'm not sure if it's been fixed in G03 version E." | | So, I am wondering what I need to do to 'fix' my potentially 'wrong coordinates'.

I admit it is a bit weird, but here's how you get hexagonal crysta= l structures in
GaussView:

1) Start a new file
2) right click on the empty window and select "Edit -> PBC= "  you should get the
PBC editor window with 5 tabs: "Symmetry", "Cell&qu= ot;, "View", "Contents" and "Reduce"
3) Go to the "Cell" tab and set angle "Gamma" = to 120
4) Go back to the "Symmetry" tab: now you can select &qu= ot;Hexagonal" for "Minimum
Lattice System"

I hope this is clear enough, and that it helps.

[CLOSED]|[mail.etsu.edu] The Gaussian manual has a good discussion of the ModRedundant command under the keyword OPT. You don't say just what you want to freeze. But you have the option of freezing bond lengths, bond angles, and torsion angles. Just pick out what you want to freeze, and type the frozen coordinates in a separate section of the input file just after the geometry specifications. Add the letter F (for frozen). For example if atom 4 is bonded to atom 5, and you want this frozen at 1.50 A, type 5 4 1.50 F. There are useful ways of freezing all bond lengths with * *, etc. Another approach is to do a partial optimization (POPT) and separate the geometries into two lists, Variables: and Constants: Regards, Dave Close.=20 -----Original Message----- > From: owner-chemistry+closed=3D=3Detsu.edu!=!ccl.net [mailto:owner-chemistry+closed=3D=3Detsu.edu!=!ccl.net] On Behalf Of raj s = k cclselva]^[gmail.com Sent: Tuesday, June 09, 2009 7:05 AM To: Close, David M.

Dear KS
I have another idea if you have Ga= ussView and hope to hear your comment on it.
Open your molecule using Ga= ussView, then open Atom List Editor, Click on "Oniom data" under "Columns".= By these, you will get a colum called "Freeze". All values in these colums= are set to zero, menas free to optimize. you can change this value to -1 (= or other negative values) for all atoms you want to freeze.
After you fi= nish, press "Cntrl + G" and choose method and tick "Multiply Oniom Layer". = And press submit, it will ask you to save, press yes and save your input fi= le and then after Saving, cancel the submission job.
now, open your savi= ng input file, and cut your atom coordinates and paste it in your ready fil= es for submission (you DON^-^T need to define ONIOM method in your route sect= ion).
That's all.
This is the most easy way to freeze alot of atoms i= n your system, we use it in ONIOM methods, but it works (with me) for other = systems.

The Gaussian manual has a good discussion of the ModRedundant command=
under the keyword OPT.
You don't say just what you want to freeze.&n= bsp; But you have the option of
freezing bond lengths, bond angles, and torsion angles.  Just pick out
what you want to freeze, and type t= he frozen coordinates in a separate
section of the input file just after= the geometry specifications.  Add
the letter F (for frozen). = For example if atom 4 is bonded to atom 5,
and you want this frozen at = 1.50 A, type 5 4 1.50 F.  There are useful
ways of freezing all bon= d lengths with * *, etc.
Another approach is to do a partial optimizatio= n (POPT) and separate the
geometries into two lists, Variables: and Cons= tants:
