A Problem Ablout Transition State Optimization



Dear CCL Subscribers:
 >   I optimized a transition state at the b3lyp/DZVP level(Gaussian98)
 followed
  by the frequency calculation.The computation was normally terminated.But when I
 checked the frequency, I found that there was no imaginary frequency,all the
 frequencies arepositive.I have never met this kind of problem. Tow dummy atoms
 were used in the input internal coordination.I do not know what caused this
 problem.
