<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Dear all,<br><br></div>I am familiar with MOLPRO from last two months. Since then I am trying to find a transition state for the reaction of reactants and products having multi reference character so, I am using CASSCF method for my problem. After a long struggle, I have found the transition state with one imaginary frequency (150 cm-1) and this normal mode having imaginary frequency seems like reaction mode which will connect reactants to products. <br>
<br></div><div>Now the problem is with IRC, here, I started IRC with the geometry which I got from the transition state optimization with QSDPATH method and IDIR=1 then, after Hessian calculation, it's complaining that, the given structure is not stationary with 4 negative Hessian eigenvalues. Does this means, my initial structure is not real transition state structure.....?? Should I have to try for the transition state structure again ..?? Any ideas to solve the problem....?? Pls help me...!<br>
<br></div><div>Below additional details may be required to understand the problem.<br><br></div><div>We are using the MOLPRO version 2012.<br></div><div>Our system has 5 atoms. We are using 13 active orbitals and 15 active electrons as my cas space and AVTZ as basis.<br>
<br></div><div>Thanks,<br></div><div>Mahi<br></div></div>
