Re: CCL:CCL-Wanted hard-to-converge
Dear Jing,
I have an example for you.
This is a rather big molecule cation-radical
with open shell. Try to deal with it. It can't converge in
the standard 64 SCF cycles in the GAUSSIAN-94, as also the convergence
was not achieved with the QC keyword.
Please find enclosed the input file.
I'll be obligated to you if you will
inform me about the trial with your procedure.
Regards,
Michael
