The answer depends on how you want to contract the basis sets, and I don't = have enough information to make this determination.

Based on my experience with these basis sets, you are probably trying to us= e
the 14s10p5d primitive set. In a minimal basis set, the contraction pattern=

functions in his book.

For example, the 4333/433/4 As basis set looks something like this.
with for example B3LYP/gen in the route line.

We don't bother to split the d-function as it is considered part of the cor= e,
but you probably would split this for the transition metals. We did add a d-type polarization function here. we also added an sp-type diffuse functio= n as
well. Note that the S and P contraction coefficients are specified in the s= ame

What you must be thinking about is the electron density, which is simply the sum of the densities of the spin up and spin down electrons rho(r) = rho_a(r) + rho_b(r) The spin density is a way of describing how the net spin in the system is distributed delta(r) = rho_a(r) - rho_b(r) Areas with positive spin density contain a surplus of spin up electrons, and those with negative spin density have a surplus of spin down electrons. -- -------------------------------------------------------- Mr. Susi Lehtola, M.

# B3LYP/LANL2DZ SCF=3D(MAXCYCLE= =3D2000) MaxDisk=3D4000MB FREQ(NR) TEMPERATURE=3D315.0


The execution of file aborts at (Computi= ng 1-Electron Integral First or Second Derivatives) with severe error messa= ge as follows:

The system cannot find the file spe= cified

CreateProcess
C:\G03W\1702.exe
retu= rned with error code 2


What can be = done to resolve this?

Any help would be appreciate= d.

However, depending on your optimization algorithm a good Hessian (2nd derivatives) will considerably improve your chances of locating any TS, and hopefully the correct TS. For saddle-point finding algorithms that only require forces you don't need second derivatives. For example: dimer, nudged-elastic band, growing string, Lanczcos, synchronous transit, transition state reaction coordinate are all methods that don't require a Hessian (2nd derivatives). However, for Hessian-based saddle point optimization algorithms (e.g. PRFO), you may greatly benefit from starting off with a good Hessian, especially so for the lowest few modes including the transition one. You may get a good starting Hessian with either analytical or numerical 2nd derivatives for your entire system or a part thereof. For a correct curvature of a partial Hessian you may use the so-called Mobile Block Hessian approach by Ann Ghysels and coworkers. Equally important is to start off with a geometry close to the anticipated transition structure, e.g. by first doing a quick linear transit run or by finding a TS for a smaller model system or with a smaller basis, etc. ... Good luck with hunting TSs!

I see the Delta H formation for trans is greater than cis, but as far as I, know Heat of formation is inversely proportional to stability. Am I doing some thing wrong ? Or the application is behaving / throwing some value? Your suggestions much appreciated. Rocky M.

You should look in which irrep p:x, p:y, and p:z will be present in C(2v) symmetry (so perhaps it is better to use D(2h) symmetry instead? ), and use occupation numbers that match your requirements." Further to this note that with the natural orbital for chemical valence approach, ETS-NOCV, it is not necessary to adhere to a certain symmetry, as the orbital interactions are calculated for each orbital pair between the fragments. See http://www.scm.com/Products/Capabilities/ETS-NOCV.html for some links to recent papers that use this powerful chemical analysis method.
