Problem with O3 freq.
Hi everybody,
Here is the expt vib. frequencies of O3
705 1110 and 1042 ( Ref. Herzberg )
Theoretical values are (output of mp2(full)/6-31+G*)
A1 A1 B2
Frequencies -- 725.8632 1162.4426 2391.7224
Red. masses -- 15.9949 15.9949 15.9949
Frc consts -- 4.9653 12.7343 53.9081
IR Inten -- 6.5303 2.4236 1635.3846
In fact we tried with other basis sets like 4-31G, 6-311G* at MP2 level
and
the values are close to the above values.
Clearly 2391 (B2 mode) is too high. what is the problem here.
