Summary for sp PCM calculation on a H transfer TS

Hi, here is a summary of the answeres I got for the topic "sp PCM
 calculation on
 a H transfer TS"
 Thanks Giovanni for your suggestion; SP calculations could be done by g03
 (all
 versions) by specifying the keywords scrf(pcm,read) and SphereOnH=N in the
 "read" section, were N is the number of the atom to be explicited.
 However
 for
 geometry optimization this keyword works with versions post B.05 (a bug
 caused
 g03 to "forget" the explicited atom after the first iteration).
 Thanks Jeremy, SP calculations and geometry optimization can be performed
 with
 PCM by specifing different topological models for atomic radii, such as
 radii=pauling or radii=UFF; such models consider all atoms to be explicit.
 Thanks Olga, who suggest the use (and maybe the comparison) of COSMO
 solvent
 model, wich permitted the obtainment of excellent results (see ref.
