CCL: Trans azo benzene



 Sent to CCL by: "Russell  Johnson" [russell.johnson^^^nist.gov]
 The NIST Computational Comparison and Benchmark Database (CCCBDB)
 (cccbdb.nist.gov) does have some calculated geometry results for trans
 azobenzene in the latest release. No internal rotational calculations yet.
 The path on the website to the calculations is: Calculated; Geometry;
 Calculated geometry. Most of the results have all real frequencies,
 indicating a minimum at the planar conformation.
